Hi.
I'm trying to get my hands on some mini-CD-R's to make demos with ...

Retail is anywhere from 3-4 dollars per Disc.
Leda Distribution will sell them to me wholesale for $1.40 each, but
only in spindles of 100.
I only want like... 20-25 does anyone want in with me? and I'll split

Its about double still, so NZ$60 for a 4mb stick that holds less than one
mp3 at a decent recording rate... yuck.
Easy solution --- *koff*koff* Don't use mp3's. =)

Is it just me or do I see a small jog dial on the left side of the unit(s)?!
It looks exactly the same as on their newer series of GSM phones (like
CMD-C1).
Can anyone confirm this?

theyre also kinda pointless ;-P Indeed a few CD players do not have the 8cm

the term balanced has nothing to do with stereo. Balanced has to
do with the sheilding on the cable to the mic. Get a balanded to

want) and use that. that will give you the best possible sound

Hi All,
Long time no post :)
It does appear these units (Sony MZ-R90/R91) have a jog dial on the left

(besides weight) between the two? I would have thought the R91 would be
better, but apparently not
