Also, having seen all 3 formats "in the flesh" as it were, the AT seems more
aimed at a "normal" user rather than a techie - ie connect to network, share
folders, go.  No need for server side apps/installs of perl engine etc etc.
It's styling is more hifi like and thus perhaps is aimed a little more
upmarket than the others.
The Rio looks tacky
The DDAR looks good
The SLiMP3 looks home made
The AT looks at home in a Hifi rack (Apart from the big Turtlebeach logo) :)

As ever, horses for courses.
It's a shame that the EU distributors have not priced the Audiotron at a
level that would allow retailers to sell at a sub-300 price point.
Already owning AT's, the UK price is not really an issue for me, but if I
was a first time buyer, I'm not so sure......
