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.

RCA LYRA.......2007-04-06

A great unit to store music and files. I use the unit both ways.

Pleasantly surprised..........2006-12-09

I had just bought a JVC KD-G720 for my Jeep Liberty and was looking for a small flash memory device when I came across the M100. I wasn't sure what to expect at first, and I couldn't find any reviews for this item anywhere. It was a good price for what it had to offer, so I gave it a shot. So far I have had zero complaints with the device. It's tiny and lightweight, yet it isn't awkward to hold or work. It has a retractible USB connection that I plug directly into my stereo head unit when I am driving and works flawlessly. Then, once I'm out of the car, I can plug earbuds directly into the device and use it as am MP3 player. It has good EQ presets, better than I expected, and organizes everything in folders the way they are arranged at transfer. The only thing I would want to see in this specific model would be a backlit LCD screen, since it is a bit difficult to see in low lighting. I am not sure of the audio quality of the earbuds either, since I use my iPod earbuds for everything. This device is worth the $45 I payed at the time, however I am not sure about paying $100 for it. You can get it through RCA for $58. Overall a great buy!

Not bad for the price.......2006-09-07

I am a college student and this gadget is perfect for tranfering files as well as storing all of my homework. Better yet is the capability of storing my music and use it as an MP3 player. It hangs weightlessly from my neck and the sound is GREAT. Not bad for the price.

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.
