Summary of RCA Lyra RD2317FM 1 GB Digital Audio Player with FM Transmitter

Take your music and audio books along wherever you go, with the Lyra Digital Audio Player. The sporty design fits nicely into the palm of your hand, and you can clip it onto your belt while jogging! The Lyra Digital Audio Player with 1024MB (1 GB) Flash Memory features Digital FM Tuner with FM Record and Dual Orientation Backlit LCD Screen. It plays back MP3 and WMA files and is compatible with most secure music downloads from WMA-compliant services that support DRM. Stores up to 32 hours of music, or 640 songs, as well as being a data storage device. No moving parts for skipless audio playback. Listen to several hours of audiobooks, newspapers, audio magazines or radio programs. Included with the player are: Music Management Software, USB Cable, Line-In Cable, Belt Clip, Neck Strap, Clip Earphone, and one AAA Alkaline Battery.
Nicely lightweight and easily pocketable, the RCA Lyra RD2317 flash memory digital audio player goes with you wherever you roam and offers 1 GB of storage. And unlike many of today's palm-sized players, it features large, easily accessible and intuitive controls as well as a good-sized, dual orientation LCD (which also lets you choose between red, blue, or purple backlighting). It comes with both a neck strap and a belt clip for easy transport.

It has 1 GB of flash memory storage and playback capability for both MP3 and WMA, and it's also compatible with DRM-protected WMA files from online stores or subscription services (including Audible.com). The 1 GB memory will store approximately 8 hours of CD-quality MP3 tracks (encoded at 128 kbps) or 16 hours of WMA tracks (at 64 kbps). You can also expand the Lyra's memory with optional Secure Digital (SD) and MMC memory cards.

In addition to digital audio playback, the Lyra also has a built-in FM tuner (with 20 presets) featuring an FM record function, enabling you to capture your favorite songs and programs to MP3. It also has a voice recorder for short notes to yourself and line-in jack for direct recording capability from external sources such as a cassette deck or CD player. It connects to PCs via an ultra-fast USB 2.0 connection, and will easily connect with both Windows and Mac-based computers. It's powered by a single AAA battery, which provides up to 20 hours of continuous usage.
