Hi everyone, This forum is great - so much useful information. I'm looking at recording some interviews and have fallen in love with the Hi-MD units, especially the Sony NH700. However, they are quite hard to find new and fairly pricey on eBay here in the UK. They seem cheaper from US ebay sellers, but will I have problems charging the battery? So - I'm just wondering if it's worth saving a little longer and going for the Hi-MD, or going for a NetMD for recording and make sure it has line out, or invest in a deck for playback (which oddly seem fairy cheap second hand) for about £30. I like the idea of USB transfer on the Hi-MD, but also like the idea of a deck I can connect to a mixer, use for different things etc. Any thoughts much appreciated! Cheers, Jim
