I will forward you to this thread, and all of your questions should be answered.  Keep in mind that this is as of yet unorganized (ie in order) and not all of the questions answered.  This, however, is a good place to start.

There is also a semi-review of the NH700 I put in the reviews forum.

The only differences between the 700 and 800 are:

* The 800 has the VPT acoustic engine [for virtual surround &c., which apparently works very poorly and is a waste to have anyway]

* The 800 comes with the radio tuner remote

I am an owner of a MZ-NHF800. And I am quite new to the whole concept of MD/Hi-MD. Here are some of my early reactions for my Hi-MD player, which was bought about a month ago:

1. The sound quality of the unit is excellent, much better than that of a MP3 player. I have tried to compare a CD track ripped into my brother's MP3 player vs my Hi-MD. MZ-NHF800 wins, hands down.

2&3. Interface is not very convenient. MD simple burner allows you to convert CD tracks onto your disc, and is very easy to use. But Sonicstage is a pain, even though it is not as bad as rumoured.

Uplodaing tracks recorded elsewhere onto the PC is a pain. It took me a LONG time to learn how to use it. The unit has no ability to record straight from the radio remote (I bought an optic cable, and can now record via my radio onto my MD, but it's clumsy). Live recordings can be uploaded only once using Sonicstage.

Having trashed my unit a fair bit, I must say I still really enjoy using it. It does most of the things that I want to do (though the process is indeed clumsy). The unit is not cheap, but I would choose it any day over a MP3 player even if it is cheaper.
