RCA Lyra Personal MP3 Player and Thumb Drive Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased this devcie and have had nothing but problems with it. The moment I got it out of the box it started resetting. I thought ok maybe it needs an upgrade. Looked on RCA.com to see if there is a firmware upgrade. Did it....loaded music and same thing. Well trying to get a hold of the RCA to do a warrenty exchange is impossible, well I am getting a refirb one now, lets see how this works. Good luck all....needless to say I a shopping for another devcie, that just left a bad taste in my mouth.

Functional as both a digital music player and a data storage device, the RCA Lyra M10001GB is a great fit for travelers and business professionals alike. Audio-wise, the Lyra's 1 GB of flash memory stores both MP3 and WMA wiles, in addition to supporting music downloads from WMA-compliant DRM services. Listeners will enjoy access to up to 32 hours of WMA music or 640 songs encoded at 64 kbps--enough for all but the longest road or plane trip. Navigation is straightforward thanks to the included MusicMatch Jukebox software, which also offers such functions as Auto DJ (creates precise playlists based on your sorting preferences) and the ability to export MP3 files to WAV format. And because there are no moving parts, the Lyra's music playback simply doesn't skip.
Listening to music is only part of the fun, however. The Lyra also stores data files, such as digital photos, PowerPoint presentations, text documents, and more. It even reads the file name and type on the display, making it easy to recall the files when needed. The data storage in effect turns the Lyra into a mini hard drive, making it a great companion for anyone who needs to transport data from one location to another without wasting a CD-R or hauling along a laptop. It also serves as a nice data overflow device in a pinch, such as when needing to free up space on a digital camera.
The Lyra is compatible with PCs running Windows 98 SE, Me, 2000, or XP or Macs running OS X 10.1.5 or higher. To connect, simply open the Lyra's easy-to-use mechanical sliding door, which reveals a direct USB connection. The door keeps dust and dirt from building up on the USB connector and prevents battery degradation. Additional features include six DSP modes (flat, bass, pop, rock, jazz, and EQ); a key lock; a rechargeable NiMH battery; and a full accessory kit with earbud headphones, a neck strap, and a USB cable.
The Lyra measures 4 by 1 by 0.375 inches (W x H x D) and is backed by a one-year warranty.
