Can I turn off file locking on a file? On occasion, I'd love to start playing the files I record before the recording is finished but the file is locked until the recording is finished. It's quite simple, really--I'm surprised you audiophile brainiacs didn't help him with this one. You can't 'turn off' file locking, but just go into explorer, right-click on the file currently being downloaded (it will most likely show a size of 0 KB--click on properties to see how much has downloaded so far, refresh the dir if needed too) and copy it to a different directory. It will continue downloading the original file and you can listen to whatever you downloaded so far, chopped at the point you copied it. This works for most file types (*.rm, *.mov, *.viv), if not all. Who says you can't learn anything from downloading porn? Gates is the man.

Plus duplicating a file which may be up to 700Mb is probably a rather daft way of listening to it and a waste of space anyway.

MD: Panasonic SJ-MJ77
Hi again, Right, sorry for two separate post, but I never saw this until I sent the MZ-E800 stuff. Panasonic has this very cool-looking replacement to the (old) MJ75 - the SJ-MJ77. The official news release isn't even out yet, but have a look: http://www.jij.co.jp/product/00-05-18/panasonic000518.html Just for the sake of it, this is the new smallest/lightest MD portable. 71,5x78.5x12.7mm , 60g (not including batteries). Smart-change mechanism: even if you don't push the disc all the way in, it'll be drawn in when you close the lid. Upon sliding the open knob, it functions like Sony's one-touch eject. 31000 yen, available in silver, blue, gray and red. launches on June 1.

MD: Sony's new MD walkman
Hi all, Thought I'd drop a note on what I read here: http://www.sony.co.jp/sd/CorporateCruise/Press/25/00-0518/ Sony MZ-E800 (open price, launches on June 10) - new Walkman logo - new foldable recharging stand (can also be used in cars) - head-loading mechanism (functions like that of the EP10/11, but Sony says this is a new design) - seamless body (virtually 1-piece shell) - LCD on unit - 24 hours' playback on rechargeable battery (same ol' NH-14WM) 79.5x76.7x17mm, or 80.5x77.5x20.0mm including projecting parts Newly released - rotary commander for in-car use (RM-WMC1; MSRP 3000 yen). I personally think this is one of Sony's best designs in recent years. Come on - if anyone remembers the WM-EX1... the MZ-E77 would be almost laughable.

MD: end search again and again
We wouldn't be arguing about end search if Gaz would stop trying to defend something so stupid, useless, and ergonomically idiotic, not to mention destructive. I don't understand why he does this, unless he just likes calling people stupid and arguing with them. But more importantly: does anyone at Sony even KNOW how much people hate it, or are we all making a lot of noise in the wilderness? Does anyone here know anyone at Sony who could be contacted about this? Is there any way to find out if Sony realizes that this feature is so unpopular? IF not, they'll just keep adding it to every new unit from now on! - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: MD: end search again and again
Gaz is OK - he has his own point of view, it's just different from most other peoples, although there are others on the list who also favour an end search button (not me..:-) ) Sony do tune in to this list - I know this for a fact but I don't know just how much influence they have on the design areas. Best thing would be to sign Rick's petition and maybe Sony will act on it. Maybe the petition should include other features to be considered eg: adjustable manual record levels whilst recording? It doesn't worry me at all - I'm very happy with my Sharp 701 - it already has these features (and more) GB - Original Message - From: Jim Gray [EMAIL PROTECTED] We wouldn't be arguing about end search if Gaz would stop trying to defend something so stupid, useless, and ergonomically idiotic, not to mention destructive.

MD: SJ-MJ77 again (sorry!)
Hello, Sorry about wasting bandwidth. The color variations for the MJ77 are: white, silver, blue, red. Note the earbuds also look slightly different. Might be the cheaper kind (the kind with the mock-diamond glittery bit). --- I was hoping to do a brief review of the Kenwood DMC-L5, but I think it's getting too close to the end of its life cycle for a full-blown review. If anyone's still interested about the player's performance (it's relatively cheap), feel free to e-mail me.

there is an undocumented +12 volt trigger output on the RM-X69RF controller I am using this wire successfully in my installation. I have a classic 1965 Ford Fairlane in which has modern electronics in the original radio case. Inside the radio, I have a 12VDC DPDT relay controlled by the RMX69RF's "trigger" output that switches the audio.
