Thanks, Aaron,
very helpful to know, and that fact definitely makes it useless as
far as I am concerned...
Does anyone know anything of how the Neuros compares in this respect?

Also, it has a more limiting battery capacity than Minidisc, and is
limited by the size of costly Compact Flash cards, but for my use,
it isn't impossible that it might well be sufficient. I won't need
digital input, just output, which it does have, and I do have a few
extra 512 meg CF cards lying around since last time I got a digital
camera which, albeit of poor quality, might just be good enough. 1.5
megs of CF should be enough for recording close to the battery
capacity anyhow. Sounds like it might be a safer bet than running
around trying to get hold of 1GB minidiscs.
