in short, no the rio Riot doesn't come the empeg guys.

Look/Search in the General forum for a topic about the Rio Riot - The Riot has been known about since this time a week ago. [this thread includes some photos of the unit].
(Or click here to see the Thread)

Check also the SonicBlue Press Releases and the SonicBlue store - there are some specs there if you're interested and you can pre-order it with delivery in late Feb.

No-one can yet confirm the weight or size of the unit as compared to say a iPod - I doubt its as sylph-like as the iPod.
