I've never personally used any of iRiver's devices, but they certainly have more visual appeal than anything from Creative, Samsung, RCA, Dell, or the laundry list of other portable device makers (with the exception of Rio). I've sampled prototypes of the Samsung and Creative PMC devices--both are lacking in key feature areas like output connections and interface usability. If photos of the iRiver PCM-100 are any indication, the iRiver Portable Media Center will beat the competition hands down.
