Product Description

The CRX10U-A2 is the first member of Sony's new Digital Relay family of computer peripheral products with integrated AV functionality. It is a stylish, portable, battery-operated CD-R/RW drive, incorporating a USB interface for plug-and-play connectivity. When attached to a computer, the CRX10U-A2 enables users to perform common CD-R/RW drive recording tasks as backing up their system, recording digital images and creating original music CDs.

The last CD-R I ever hope to buy........2002-05-27

I can't comment on this product's use as a portable MP3 player, other than to say it has a lot of cool gadgets to facilitate that sort of thing. And you could put all the music you'd ever want on a few CDs in MP3 format, which struck me as impressive (as did the little readout attachment which actually gives you track info).

I got this for one purpose: To burn CD-Rs on any computer I happened to be at. USB connectivity makes this a pleasure. I just plug the player into a USB port and it appears as a drive. The burning software is adequate, if not spectacular. And the unit burns a full CD quickly and cleanly. (I've never "burned a coaster" with this.)

If someone needs an emergency backup, I can just connect this and save their data quickly. I only have to avoid cracking one computer case to make this worth my while. And if it's a little pricier than an internal model, just remember your next computer won't =need= to have a burner on it--you can just use this.

So, to sum up: It connects quickly and easily, is totally self-sufficient, and does the job nicely. Quite apart from whatever capacity it might serve as an MP3 jukebox.

Wildly Inconsistent.......2002-05-07

I think I would've been happier with an uglier, cheaper CD burner. I've coastered three disks for every one I've recorded. The software is useless -- it hangs precisely 47 seconds into testing. To get the included software to work properly, I've had to uninstall and reinstall each time. So now I'm using MusicMatch. Sony's support,while pleasant, was also useless. They repaired problems with a grinding noise and the eject button, but couldn't help me with the stalling problem. In fact, I had better luck when I did exactly opposite what they told me!

Follow-up.......2002-03-20

A while back I wrote a review on this product, which you can read below. Having used the product for a few months now, I would like to add two slightly negative remarks and a positive one. First, the unit is really too big to be taken around. It's great if you share it among computers, or attach it to your home theater, but that's about it. If you are looking for a portable MP3 player, consider lighter options (Rio-like). Second: battery life is actually 2 hours, as mentioned by the user's manual. Again, this is OK for "emergency" operations, but limits the usability of the drive.

On the positive side, I have used the drive on several computers and for long periods of time. So far it has not faulted me once.

Better than I expected.......2001-11-21

I needed a CD burner for my laptops, and a USB compatible one was a necessary choice. After a lot of reading and researching, I opted for the Digital Relay: most professional reviews were positive (...), but I was held back by some feedbacks by (...) users. So there was some suspense in the air when I installed it.

The results so far are very positive: software installation (on a thinkpad with win2000) was flawless, and burning audio and data a piece of cake. There is also a backup software utility. Both applications do their job well, although very advanced users will want something better: free/cheap recording software abounds both for Mac and Windows, so this is besides the point of this review. The fact that the digital relay duplicates as a stand-alone mp3 player is extremely useful if you listen to a lot of music; using a tape adapter you can play mp3 in your car -- very cool.

The only drawback is that this unit won't record in packet writing mode on win2000-based systems; the customer service warned me about it before I bought the unit. To me it doesn't make any difference, since I use it for data backup and music recording, not as hard drive substitute.

Another very minor drawback is the remote: it's cute and useful when driving a car. But it looks very fragile, and designed for the hands of a toddler. Something bigger and sturdier would have made for better engineering design.

Works well..........2007-06-08

I ordered this because of a 20th Century art history class I was taking and after the first test realised I might want to record what is being said. It did exactly what I needed it to do but I had to remember to download everything from it every night or else I wouldn't have enough room for the next days classes. But other then that I have no complaints.

Nice device for a nice price!.......2006-06-11

This is my first digital voice recorder. I use it for recording speeches and conferences. Sometimes I use it in my own office's meetings to record my mate's opinions. The software is very useful. You may change the format of your recordings using Windows Media or any similar application. My DVR is refurbished, and even so it does the job and saves my day in the sense of keeping sound records. I recommend it.

Doesn't work with windows XP.......2005-12-23

1. Can't get the driver to work under Windows XP.
2. No driver download from official website....
3. ...because they want to charge you $19.9 for the driver!

It does the Job well and easy.......2005-12-21

I use this product at the office for interviews, meetings and for taking notes, for me it is better than a tape recorder because it gives you the option to save recordings in a PC. It is easy to use and so is the software that comes with it. Consulting the manual is only required for the special options that it has. The best use you can give this unit is to record conversations. Other user that need stereo sound will need to searh for something else. I got this product new on a local retailer for 45 USD back in 2004. I would advice to buy the VN-960 PC because it has 4 times the record time for only 60 USD. The only Cons. i find in this product are: Uses AAA batteries, sometimes Rechargable Batteries dont work and file transfer to PC is too slow.

GREAT FOR THE PRICE!!! .......2005-12-06

This item is a great deal. The software sucks all it can do is hold your recordings. It is very ez to use. I would have of bought the DS-2.

Great deal!!

A battery that works.......2006-02-17

I made the mistake of ordering a $7.00 battery and I thought my phone was broken because of the way it was acting. I replaced my new battery with this new battery and now it works like a champ. So word to the wise... Just get this battery and you will not have my problems. Well worth it.

Product Description

With a Panasonic TV/DVD combo unit, you can enjoy all of your favorite DVD movies in one state-of-the-art, space-saving unit. These versatile products also play DVD-Rs, and audio formats such as CDs and most CD-R/RW MP3 recordings. FM Radio with Auto Scan makes it easy to search through all available FM stations and save 9 of your favorites in memory. When you plug in this TV/DVD combo unit, the local time and available TV channels are automatically set. With six discrete channels of digital audio (for optional DTS and Dolby Digital surround sound decoders), your TV/DVD combo unit can deliver the ultimate sound experience. The PureFlat picture tube cuts down on the light distortions associated with conventional curved screens to deliver natural images from corner to corner of your TV. DVD Resume Play starts your movie from where you left off, even if you press stop. DVD Multi-Speed Scan/Slow scans forward or backward through any DVD at varying speeds, making it easy for you to search for specific scenes while you watch. Simulated Surround Sound simulates the surround sound movie theater experience using just two speakers, allowing you to enjoy multi-channel DVDs without an elaborate home theater system. With DVD picture zoom, you can magnify an image from a DVD for an extreme close-up.

Amazon.com Product Description

If you're tight on space, wary of complicated hookups, or just looking for a speedy portal into the home-theater excitement, this 20-inch TV-DVD combo is just what you need. Equally suitable as a living room showpiece or a bedroom convenience, the set features Panasonic's revered Tau PureFlat screen as well as support for MP3 files and DVD-R discs. The PV-20DF62's innovative picture tube is perfectly flat, affording a distortion-free image from corner to corner. Its three-line digital comb filter minimizes dot crawl and cross-color interference. Velocity-modulated scan slows down across the black and white portions of the video signal, sharpening dark-to-light transitions and picture edges.

The unit's high-quality DVD player does double-duty as an audio CD player that plays MP3 files from CD-R and CD-RW for hours of audio enjoyment. This combo unit can also play home-recorded MPEG2 video that's been saved on a DVD-R using a Panasonic DVD-Video recorder. Additionally, the DVD player offers smooth-motion scan in five speeds (up to 100x), picture zoom, and auto switching field/frame still. Home theater-ready, the PV-20DF62 has the appropriate outputs to help you enjoy surround sound audio. When it's connected to a Dolby Digital or DTS-decoding audio/video receiver and a six-channel speaker system, you'll enjoy exhilarating digital surround sound.

A front-panel audio/video input (with composite- and S-video) affords easy hookup of camcorders, gaming consoles, or other devices. The unit includes an earphone jack, V-Chip parental control, a sleep timer, on timer, and wake-up alarm. Onscreen icons and front-panel cursor keys and menu control make setup and operation extremely simple. It also comes with built-in FM radio and a multi-brand tower remote. Finally, Panasonic has imbued the PV-20DF62 with its Ready-to-Play feature: as soon as you plug it in, the combo automatically sets its own clock and local TV channels.

Tau's have great pictures.......2002-12-06

I have the 27" without the DVD player built-in. The picture is great.

One downside of these pure flat screen TV's is that they are H-E-A-V-Y. Make sure you get a heavy-duty TV stand that is rated for it's weight or you may find this weight crashing down on you or a loved one.

Personally, I prefer a separate DVD player so if it goes bad, you don't have to haul this heavy TV into the shop.

Compare to Sony Wega.

All models feature long eye relief for eyeglass wearers.

Amazon.com Product Description

Minolta's Activa Compact 8 x 25 FM binoculars offer versatility and power in a neoclassic design that's lightweight and comfortable. An attractive rubber grip around the top, side, and bottom of the body gives you a sure and comfortable hold, even for extended periods of time. The security of the grip, plus their compact size and 8x magnification, make these binoculars ideal for theater or concert goers, hikers, birdwatchers, and travelers.

To meet the visual requirements of each individual user, the sliding eyepiece cups extend and retract as needed, letting you adjust them for a perfect viewing session. The 17mm eye relief lets you view in comfort, especially if you wear glasses while observing. The diopter adjustment ring is independent of the focusing system, but you only have to set it once per user. The Activa Compact 8x25 FM uses positive click-stops making adjustments fast and easy.

The Best Compact Binoculars for Eyeglass Wearers.......2003-11-11

If you wear glasses (and don't like to take them off to see through binoculars), and don't want to pack around a lot of weight, these are by far the best binoculars I've found for the price (I didn't try the $1000+ models!). I tried the 10 X 25's and they were good, but the 8 X 25's are the best. Very clear and nice and lightweight.
