Has ogg solved the problem of requiring floating point execution
to decode(something like that). I remember reading that one of the
biggest obsticles of ogg getting adopted in portable players is a lot
of them are integer only, no floating point stuff, and at least at
the time ogg wasn't capable of this.

I'd be suprised if my Rio 300s were upgradable in any way :)
