  1. Havn't posted in a while...

    Still toying with the idea of buying a pair of these. The pictorial and review is very much appreciated, ny sound is tiny even at hogh volujmes do you mean tinny? or just quiet (i find this to be the case with my EX81)?

    Still don't think i'll be parting with my cash anytime soon for a pair of these. (partly because i have very little atm)

  3. Well, first time i've heard it.

    It sounds absoloutely terrible, Since the invention of the CD the industry has survived without all of this rubbish, i know for one i'd actually feel more inclined to NOT buy anything with such corporate protection on it.

    So many problems:

    Take a CD, for example, i'm sure many own or use multiple CD players, perhaps one in the living room, bedroom, kithchen, car, portable... etc. Play it in any one of those and it is instantly restricted to it, furthermore if the player stops working then that CD and every other one with the 'protection' on it become waste!!

    Surely sony have foreseen these issues??

    Pata2001, i surely hope you are right.

    I for one am on my 5th PS2, so concerning games the same problems are present.

  8. What bit-rates are you using?

    I beleive you will obtain better battery life from using the Atrac format, rather than MP3, also lower bit-rates are more battery friendly (although obviously sound quality will be lost)

    If there is a wide range of bit-rates being played i suspect the battery will be indicating remaining time being able play at the current rate. Hence the up and down movement on the baterry indicator bar.

    Welcome to ALC!

  9. You have a point there, perhaps with all this multifunction malarky it is beginnning to lose focus as it's main function is to be a games console.

    It is dabateable however as to wehter it is a good or bad thing, the more features the merrier i think, but i certainly do not want to be forced to install every single game befopre playing it. Also if Blu-ray can hold 50gb per disc how large would a game install be? Obviously larger means more time consuming and a damned high capacity HD would need to be supplied (pushing up that price even further no doubt).

  10. Vey nice looking player, sleek but not 'ipod-y'.

    I think i know what Imagine means when he says 'hard drives are no good'. As compared to flash there is more chance of skipping (in fact none with Flash) and HDD's do consume more power.

    I have no qualms with my 30gb HD5 though, has never skipped and battery life is pretty immense. Although i will say that for 'just' 4gb, flash is really the way to go IMO. I am curious to know wehter using a smallr hard drive will reap rewards in the power consumption department however, as smaller surely means less movement and perhaps lighter weight depending on materials used.

    Also i think that video playback is a little gimmicky, as it looks a similar size to my phone (K750i) and i would certainly not like to watch even a 30 min T.V episode on it, due to screen size. Short comedy clips or similar for showing to friends though, i suppose is fair-game.

    At first look then those are my qualms, however what i do find interesting is the size of the HDD utilised. Does is use perpendicular reading methods? If so i look forward to something with a more hard drive worthy storage 20gb+ which has been given the shrinking treatment.

    Edit - Just looked at the specs page and 20 hours of playback is quoted, this seems quite sufficient, i'd be happy with it.
