Hey again, Sorry for flooding the list. I know I've done it before... This will be the final post for a while. :) Sony has another 4 bookshelf systems, all as new "Pepz" series models: http://www.sony.co.jp/sd/CorporateCruise/Press/200007/00-0718B/ Worth noting is that all 4 models can record at 4x speed. If you use the SP mode (no time extension), scale factor adjustment can be made after recording. If you do 4x-speed recording or use LP modes, you don't get the benefit of the type-R ATRAC. Also on Nelson Mandela's birthday (sic), is the announcement of JVC's new MD player. http://www.jvc-victor.co.jp/products/compo/XM-P2000.html This model supports the ATRAC3 LP mode I mentioned. Other functions are identical to other JVC players, albeit a bit larger and heavier. battery life: (LP2 is ATRAC3, double time; LP4 is quadrouple time) rechargeable battery: 10-hour SP, 6.5-hour LP2, 7-hour LP4. AA alkaline cell: 9-hour SP, 6-hour LP2 and LP4. both combined: 24.5-hour SP, 15.5-hour LP2, 16-hour LP4. size: 80.1 by 17.2 by 84.4 mm weight: 107g (without battery) JVC is releasing a boombox (RC-MD330) and two bookshelf systems (UX-A70MD, MX-S55MD) that support the LP modes.
