YEah, I contacted SonyStyle Canada for some clarification on their specs of the NH900... They emailed me back telling me to send them a correct model number... So I linked to a press release from their site and info from Sony.com to qualify my model info and they denied any knowledge of such a product and claimed they don't know anything till it shows up.

I'm not sure if this is technically the right forum, but since SS2 is shipping with Hi-MD I thought this might be the best place to ask. Ok, Apple (boo hiss!) has released this very cool device that is a 802.11g router, firewall, bridge, USB printer port, and a wireless music output. Given it's size and price it's going to be popular (IMO), but do you think SS will be able to use it? I'm going to guess no (Apple = itunes = MP3), but it would certainly be an excellent option... Thoughts? link - http://www.apple.com/airportexpress/

I would be concerned about the glue of any tape causing greater problems with your LCD cover, like discolouration or worse. The PDA screen prtectors can be cut to size and then maybe the tape over it if it's not secure enough.

So you didn't get a refund!? Their customer service seems good.

Hey there, I've been lurking and reading and waiting... :laugh: I bought a used N505 TypeR several months ago and I've only just really started enjoying it. So as I was ordering more discs I started readling about the Hi-MD. Well I've been contemplating a mini-ipod for the data storage aspect, but the idea of a tiny CF harddrive worried me with shock and data corruption. Plus in Apple fashion it's completely sealed and basically all or nothing. Anyway, the only 2 MD that have the features and price point are the MZ-NH800 and MZ-NH900. The 800 is listed as not having a lineout which is a feature I think is needed on a device of this price. So for slightly more the 900 looks good but I have some questions for the people that have seen them: 1. Does the 900 have an FM/weather tuner? Seller info is mixed on this, but the Sony press release indicates a digital tuner. 2. The 900 takes an internal NiMH AA too? 3. Is the data transfer to the unit really as slow as stated here (500M = 15 minutes!) or do the higher models have a higher transfer? 4. Is there anyone else in the MD game now besides Sony (for North America)? Now for the preorder :smile:
