I bought it though to use it for audio books from audible.com. I have no problem with using this for music but if I download an audio book it locks up. I called RCA for assistance with this. Their response was that I need a firmware upgrade. The problem is that there is not firmware upgrade available. Of course I did ask when would be availabe and the reply was, we don't know. I am returning this unit since RCA has no idea when a firmware update will be made avaiable. Another problem was that I bought it from jlhwholesalers.com even after I read a notice that their communication with customers was bad. Well of course it's been a week and 4 emails to them and I still am unable to return my unit. jlhwholesalers keeps telling me that they are waiting for a return authorization from a vendor. I should have stuck with Amazon but they were out of stock. 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful: This review is from: RCA Lyra RD2215 512 MB Sport Digital Audio Player with FM Tuner (Electronics) I am an athlete and i decided to buy an MP3 player recently. This mp3 player had everything i wanted. But i got sick of it within 2 hours of trying to use it.
The joy stick was too rigid. I had to use all my strength to operate the player. It was hard to find music. I was scared to use the player while driving. I wish RCA could have done some market research before even releasing the product to the market. I returned the product to Frys electronics within 12 hours of buying and bought Philips SA261 Solid State 512 MB MP3 Player instead. Easy operation , great looks and I am loving it. Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: RCA Lyra RD2215 512 MB Sport Digital Audio Player with FM Tuner (Electronics) Simple use for an active athletic person on the go. I recommend using an armband with this player, as the clip on the battery cover isn't the most sturdy piece of plastic.
This device worked well for us while we were in Alaska (running in -15 degree weather), and is still working well 5 years later in Florida. |
