Anyone else experiencing sound dropouts on their units? I'm not talking about skipping. What has been happening, is a complete loss of sound on the headphones, while the song continues to run on the unit. This is very troubling. I loved my Hi-MD at first, but I am slowly thinking that I made a bad purchase.

Analog sources only.., I think you meant digital sources?

I got an extra from sonystyle when I bought my 900

maybe the international versions don't come with blanks...

The NH600's I've seen in Best Buy in the US come with blank Hi-MD discs... My NH900 didn't come with the little grey bag I've grown to love...

900's body looks all metal, but the front piece is plastic...albeit fairly durable plastic... Don't think the all metal body would survive a drop anyway.

Which n my opinion is a nice difference :smile:

The digital amp makes the 900 worth it...great sound

Anyone know where I can get one of that fancy remotes for my 900?

That would be pretty cool... Wouldn't hold your breath though...I think the market for Ipaq owners is a little larger than for Minidisc

Other reasons for the step up: Sony's Digital Amp (I think that thing adds amazing sound) Better aesthetics (jog dial's cool, no big battery hump) Charging Cradle The NH900 is pretty sweet...

I guess you could buy like 7 or 8 extra batteries for when you go on vacation... :wink: Or bring the bulky charger with you... Bottom line is the NH1 is probably a better made piece of hardware...the NH900 is a more convenient piece of hardware (at least for me) Why not combine the 2...Bring back the old days when the 900 models were tops.

Got my NH900 2 days ago...lots of options to play with...overall a very comprehensive machine... The one drawback is that the device is half plastic, and my MZ-R900 felt like a much sturdier piece of hardware. When the Hi-MD models were announced I was eyeing the NH1 for months until I realized there was not a dry batttery attachment for it. That little extra is so important for travel for me...especially in foreign countries. The charge on the NH1 wouldn't be enough to get me through the flight to Europe. Definate deal-breaker. I'm just left wondering why Sony wouldn't offer the attachable battery compartment on the NH1 (it's "top of the line" model)...And why they would make half of the 900 metal and half plastic. Sticking with my 900...loving the features...handling it with extra care. :whatever:
