Re: MD: MZR90 Batt Life
it's the same as with the mobile phones, is there anyone who believes in 300+ hours standby in it? maybe if you're not touching it at all. In that case, specs for MZR 55 are honest, you should take out of it at least 4 hours playback and about 3 hours of recording. Those numbers for the other models are a little bit overblown, and I suppose it's not the Sony's specialty? - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: MD: MZR90 batt life
I know this is being lazy and probably inaccurate... The specs you see from the manufacturers are made under the condition that they test for 4 hours only during each 24 hour period. Maybe 4 hours' sitting still wouldn't be that inconvenient. Put the disc on all-repeat. Leon > Just add up the time you use it before you recharge it.

=== = NB: Over 50% of this message is QUOTED, please = = be more selective when quoting text = === Just add up the time you use it before you recharge it. It will still give a good ballpark figure. using it in spurts of walking will give the batterys time to regenerate a little between uses, but the walking may make the head shift off track and heve to be repositioned. Though you won't hear any difference, it will increase battery drain when it repositions the head. When the battery doesn't play the md any more on your way to/from work, mark the time and insert a spare battery for the resto f the walk home. (Just a suggestion, you don't HAVE to do it at all.)

This is the way to do it, but still not high on my list of fun things to do, and conflicts with my normal usage, which is to listen while I'm walking to/from work. simon - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
