MD: Upcoming Panasonic players!

2000-10-14 Thread Leon


Hello,

I was doing the usual surfing at this Japanese message board (Puwa-ris'
board), and found the following information.  Matsushita has probably put
out news releases without doing the same online - they've done this before.

Neither units are MD-LP capable, but look at the specs of the MJ88. Wow :)

Tentative launch: late November
Variations: blue, silver, pink, green
Weight: 54g without battery, 81g including rechargeable battery

size including projecting parts: 74.1 by 80.1 by 13.9 mm
Maximum 110 hours' playback (Ni-MH + AA alkaline)
About 40-hour on rechargeable, 70 on AA alkaline.
features:
- recharging stand
- anti-shock buffer back up to 40-second (from 20 on MJ75, 77)
- 2-step S-XBS (!)

And also, details on the SJ-MJ33:

MD: ac power adapter for sharp md-ms701

2000-10-14 Thread Gerhard Meier


HI!!
I lost my ac power adapter for my MD-portable Sharp MD-MS701. Who knows
where I can get one (can be used)? How much is it approximately? (I live
in Germany/Bavaria, it should not take longer than 2 weeks to get it).

Thanks very much
  Gerri

PS: My Sharpi was defect for the last 5 month. Cause they want already
about 40 USD just to have a look on it I decided to buy a new one. But
yesterday I thought I can't loose very much and so I dared to open my
Sharpi, maybe I'll see an obvious defect? But I didn't. So I thought at
least I've now seen a minidisc portable from the inside and dissected it
in his parts cause it wouldn't matter anyhow. But when I put it
together, oh wonder wonder, it  w o r k e d. 
I don't know exactly what was wrong, I suspect it had to do with the AC
power jack cause it is rather outworn and that the mechanic which moves
the 'laser/record head - unit', stucked somehow. I hope this is not just
the last rearing up of my Sharpi and it will last for a long time.
So sometimes it's worth to play around with your MD (at least if you
gave it up anyhow).
