Sorry all. I need to post this in here, not many people visit the Music forums.
I just need to know if anyone has the MZR909 MiniDisc by Sony?

All I need to know is there was problems with earlier models with the battery getting hot while charging. And messing up the screen. Does this model suffer from this problem?

Thank you very much for any help

(SR delete this when I got me info)

Cheers

Perhaps someone can answer my MiniDisc related questions:

I've recently bought a whole bunch of Sony MiniDiscs, to record all my new albums on for my portable Sharp MiniDisc player. However, I used my Sony stereo to record the CDs on to the MDs, but when I played them on my personal player, I just had an album full of silence. What gives? When I recorded over the same MiniDisc with the same thing, it was fine - do you have to format some MDs or something?

I have the MZ-G750 and it never gets hot, I can leave mine overnight if I wanted to. And yeah, it does stop when it is charged.

I got the MZR-91 and it only needs 3 hours for a full charge.

I leave mine charging overnight or whenever, it automatically stops when the battery is full anyway, not sure how/why it would overheat...

Actually, Silver looks the sweetest. With the remote being Silver too.

Ok cheers all.

Yea cheers Sibs. Maybe its just these dumb people who leave it on overnight. Quite stupid really. Well, yea, ok, SR.

Yea, thing is that the earlier models, 700. etc. Loads of users complained about the battery heading up so much.

What I could do is just buy and external adapter anyway.

Mm, now how much would on of those be..

Seeing as the player is already £175.

I just hope they have the little monkey in stock. Or i'll kill someone...

All batteries heat up a little for MiniDisks when they are being charged. I don't think that should mess up the screen. Unless it only does it when its fully charged?

Take it back with your receipt :)
