I suspect you're correct, but CD-portable's don't use a time buffer, do
they? The first time I heard of "g-protection" was for Sony CD-portables
(which are being marketed aggressively in NZ with that feature. I wondered
if Sony were adapting MD-portables to the same form of shock protection as
the CD-portables.
Whatever "g-protection" means, let's hope it's better than the "esp" shock
protection on Sony CD walkmans. My Sony CD walkman is supposed to have
something like 20 seconds "esp" but in terms of shock protection it's easily
outstripped by my E-25 MD with 10 second time buffer shock protection (I
know that has as much to do with the different features of the formats as
the type of shock protection used).
