I was just day dreaming anyway. Kinda spoiled now and would want both PCM and upload capabilities, so thankfully I'm more than happy with the MZ-M200. Makes me wonder how I missed the minidisc format as I made my transitions from records, cassettes, cds, then flash. They are so cool, and the sound is wonderful, I'm hooked. But I will keep an eye out to a machine similar to the portadisc that has Hi-MD features, if such a beast exists....
