okay martin, thanks for that, that gets me ones step closer... just can't beleive that there's no UK bought NH700's out there, that've had AudioCubes 40ELK remote tried with them... I asked the useless staff in my local Sony shop if i could try a remote from the NH1 in my NH700, and they almost had a heart attack... "no, sorry, there's no way we can do that!". i emailed sony support, and they didn't even seem to think that it'd be possible to get the 11EL or 33EL to work with my model, which i know it does, because i've heard from people who've done it. i'm on the verge of giving up, and just getting a 33EL, but i know someone'll post the answer five minutes after i've bought it! *grumble* anyone?

So, sorry to hark on about this... But... Has anyone with a UK NH700, managed to try the 3line remote control on their setup... and if so, what functions/buttons work? Else I'll have to grab one of those 33EL remotes offa eBay.

That's cool KJ, thanks for the info!!! Has anyone else used any of these remotes, OR the 40ELK on their UK NH700???? Cheers.

Hey all, I recently bought the NH700, with the HORRIBLE display-less remote... and was wondering if anyone else in the UK had bought the same model, but already upgraded the remote. Any info (on tried n tested UK NH700's) would be VERY VERY much appreciated. Defdex.

Well, i'm not sure if this is the info you're after... as it was posted by someone else on another thread... so don't call me clever for finding it out, i'm just stealing someone elses brainwave. Okay, i'm not really sure what you mean by creating a virtual cd-r drive... but if you use Nero, and select an 'Audio CD' as your project... you can then load it up... and load it up... and overfill it like crazy with mp3s... (i tested this last night, and compiled a 95 track cd)... then i burnt it to my hard disc as a Nero Image file... then mounted the image file, using Nero's 'Imagedrive' - which made it into a virtual CD. Next I booted up Simple Burner, and it recognised the mounted drive as a regular cd... and just hit the Transfer button. I haven't found a way of keeping the track titles etc on there... I tried asking Nero to burn CDText, but that didn't seem to make any diff... still, tis a sight quicker than SS. Defdex

Here's the same model using the funky remote: http://mp3.zol.com.cn/2004/0901/117299.shtml But sadly, my chinese reading skills are somewhat lacking.

ok, that's cool, thanks for the info so far ppl... but is there anyway i can find a list of what functions work and don't on that remote? the three-line's aren't essential, but i'm more than happy to pay the extra to get them... and let's be honest... it's SOOOO much sexier than the 33EL. anyway, there must be SOMEONE out there that's bought a UK version of the MZ-NH700, and tried it out with one of those swanky 3line remotes?? anyone??? p.s. thanks for the welcome Kurisu, so far i'm pretty damned impressed, a very nice little forum!!

Hey wonderful knowledgable people!! I've recently bought a NH700 HiMD player/recorder.. I'm totally in love with it, enjoyin just about everything on it at the moment, and lovin the 1gb discs (even if they are in short supply in the UK).. ANYWAY.... My only gripe is that after handing over £200 of my hard earned cash, i find out that this super-dooper model, not only lacks a backlit screen on the main unit, but also comes with a no-display remote control. So I was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of an LCD Backlit replacement? The only thing is, i'm after someone who's ALREADY done it, and attached it to the MZ-NH700, just so i don't go buying somethin that doesn't work when it arrives. I have found this remote, over at audiocubes: http://www.audiocubes.com/product_info.php...261648abce43bd7 Which says: Corresponds with all Hi-MD walkman: MZ-NH1/NH3D/EH1 But... I don't understand the way they've listed the models... Does the MZNH700 fit into that description? or could this have been written before the 700 was released? I'm very confused by it all. I just wanna be able to use my MD in the dark! Thanks in advance for any info people! Defdex.
