What is it you feel you need that the R55 doesn't have? Well, for starters, I don't want to have to keep on recharging the batteries every so often. For instance, the single internal battery in the Sharp model runs for nearly the same time as the Sony with BOTH external AA's, and the internal

2000-03-08 Thread Edd Farmer

Hmmm, so *this* is what happens when I go on holiday for a fortnight... 400+ messages!!! Doh! Oh well. Anyway, the same thing happened with a Fun Lovin' Criminals CD (100% Columbian if you must know) - first time I recorded it, it was fine. 2nd time and I ended up with 30+ tracks from a 16
