It does but it's on the back and it disables everything. I don't
use the remote much (don't like looking like some wired-for-sound
nerd plus I don't like messing with all the wires) so using the
remote isn't an option. I have started flipping the hold switch but
it's a pain. I use my 90 as much for time shifting radio talk shows
as I do listening to music. I need the ability to quickly nuke
commercial breaks. With the 90 in my shirt pocket, I can simply
finger the >> key through the pocket. Not possible with the hold
switch activated.
I'm gonna resist ranting but this is what I hate about jap
electronics. Seems they always put 1 or 2 really annoying features
on their products that wouldn't be there had Americans been
designing for our tastes. Unfortunately, there ain't any other
choice anymore. *Sigh*.
