Howdy everyone, I have a pal who is keen to get an MD portable - playback preferably. He's looking at the Sony MZ-E44 (blue, sparkly, big "X" across the front - it's still very much a current model in N.Z.). But the main place he wants to use it is at the gym, running etc, and so he needs to wear the thing on him, but won't have any pockets etc. What he really needs is an MD with a belt clip, since portables are light and small enough not to be a hassle if they're strapped to you when you're being vigorous, but he can't find one that has a belt clip. Oh, and good shock protection, but I guess they all have that, my MZ-E25 is no spring chicken, but it's had a battering and it takes it a lot to skip. he has a discman but of course it does worse than any MD portable in all departments. He saw the E44 has a strap, but was uncertain on how you' use it! Can anyone recommend a portable (preferably player, preferably sony but anything considered) that either has a belt clip or something else that makes it suitable for the gym or whatever? I know personally I'd never use a belt clip because they look a bit random - I usually carry the thing, stick it in a pocket, or (esp. when mountainbiking) in my bag but sometimes you don't have much choice! Also can anyone comment on the MZ-E44/45 and the use of the strap thing? thanks richard Richard Lang Duncan Cotterill Christchurch, NZ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----------------------------------------------------------------- To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
