Actually, if you're willing to, you can use your rio now. I'm using 2.3.99 (pre2), and have had no problems whatsoever uploading to my 500. You just need to go to Freshmeat and get the program rio500.
I've been using it pretty much consistently since I was able to nab it Monday night. For a 1.0 release I'm very happy with it. The install is ludicrously easy to do, but you don't have the control over some things (X-Windows setup and networking), but the install seems to do a good job of getting it working somewhat close to my real needs. As far as apt-get, you can still use it, and they also included a graphical frontend that works great. You can specify mirrors other than Corel's web site. I've got a couple of Debian/Potato mirrors in my list, and it all works and updates perfectly.

It isn't based on Mandrake or RedHat. It's based off of Debian. (best dist IMNSHO)
