The Sharp 702 was probably the most unreliable portable mini disc
recorder ever made.  When I was helping sell MD gear on the net the
return rate was as high as fifty 50%!  What's more, sometimes we would
send out several replacements and the buyer still didn't get a unit that
worked properly.

When the 722 came out, we upgraded dozens of 702 to the 722 charging
only the difference in price.  The supplier in Japan was very good about
taking back all of those units.  I think that Sharp repackaged them and
sold them to Frys <g>.
