Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I loved my 499 model (sold here). It had mechanical play/ff/rev buttons. This model has a knob the goes in 4 directions and down. I hate it. It is too sensitive to touch (I often hit it by accident and send the tape back or forward :( ), and is difficult to use without looking as the orientation is a bit offset. Also the engaging head is electronic and takes about 2 seconds to change from ff/rev to play. For me, it takes too long while scanning stop and go... (I tend to forward through material - like commercials taped from radio). Anyway, it makes for poor scanning speed and if you pass your point of interest, more pain to back up a bit. I have just ordered another 499 model and will get rid of this one. One last negative: The headphone jack is at the bottom! and with it clipped to a belt makes for barely any slack in the (supplied!) headphone cord! Bending a little to the side will exhaust the length... I am 5-11 and so not extremely tall. This unit is a real disappointment. Oh yeah, the buttons are SUPER stiff for the radio/menu/tuning. I understand being new, but it just is one more downer for this miss of a design.
