Hi, First, what's the highest capacity card the machine supports... And second, is it normal for the formatting process to take a really long time on say, a 16-gig SD card? Thanks, Brad Trainham Jonathan Mosen List Founder Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more...

Hi. I'm using a 32 gig SD HC card with no problem. It takes a little time to load large amounts of files, but once that's done things work quite quickly and normally. I can't answer the formatting question, since all the cards I use worked right away. Have a great day, and don't work too hard.

Hi Brad, The Sony is usable as far as simple operation. You will need someone to help you get the date and time set when you first turn on the machine. Once this is done, you should be able to record and playback with ease. As far as the menus, it is like any non-talking machine, takes quite a
