The Roq-it allows users to easily transport an entire library of digital quality music with them anywhere.''

The Roq-it delivers breakthrough digital quality stereo MP3 playback. Plug and Play software drivers combined with the USB interface ensures a fast and easy installation of the MP3 Jukebox. When connected through the USB interface, the Roq-it will show up as a new drive letter to allow a user to employ drag and drop functionality from a PC or Mac to copy music to the Roq-it. It is compatible with MP3 (MPEG 1 Audio Layer 3) standards, which provides audio compression specifications.

The D-Link Roq-it has all of the programming modes that are standard on portable CD and MP3 players including: Repeat, Repeat All, Program, Random and Random All. In addition, the D-Link Roq-it 10 GB Jukebox has preset equalizer modes for Jazz, Rock, Pop and Classic and showcases a user-definable preset equalizer mode that allows users to adjust the sound of the Roq-it to their particular taste.

Up, Down, Left and Right buttons on the face of the Roq-it control navigation to a particular song or album. The Key-pad Lock feature disables the use of all buttons so that the user cannot accidentally change any function. Further flexibility is added to the Roq-it with the included infrared remote control for ease of use from a distance. The Roq-it 10 GB provides an audio jack for connection to earphones or playing through speakers. A Line-Out stereo jack is also provided that enables the connection to an external audio input.

With 10 GB of hard drive capacity, the D-Link Roq-it provides up to 150 hours of digital-quality music and other recordings using the popular MP3 standard. In addition, Roq-it 10 GB can also double as a portable external hard drive so that users can copy any file (such as word processing documents, spreadsheets, presentations, graphics) to the Roq-it Jukebox in the same manner as a floppy disk. The hard drive compartment can be opened easily to replace the hard drive with separate 2.5`` hard drives. The capacity of the hard drive is limited only to the capacity of 2.5'' laptop hard drives available. The Roq-it 10 GB's USB interface allows for a full 800 KB of bandwidth to deliver music file transfers at blazing speeds.
