Sony M-100MC Microtape recorder with uni-directional mic

If you are at College, University or just need good note back-up for meetings etc. (Get permission first)

This is THE item for you - it actually does what it says.

It's quiet and discrete to use so will not annoy others in lectures, class or meetings.

The multi mic actually works, but will pick up paper rustling so careful when taking written notes.

Very well designed.

I hope Sony do another version with longer recording time capacity soon.

Sony D-EJ119 CD Walkman

Sound quality seemed pretty good, and I really like the way the controls are set out. Is quite light and portable, battery lasted not tooo badly... Only down side for me was that it could've used a little more "ooomph", more volume please Sony! Rumbling along on a bus it really doesn't quite go loud enough.
Other small niggle is the beep-beep-beep sound when you pause a CD, it becomes dead annoying if youre using a "learn French" CD that you pause every 2 minutes!!!!

Intempo KTL-01 DAB Digital Radio - Latte

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Personal Cassette Players

Having compared reviews and prices online i chose this radio. From a distance it looks great but up close the appearance is somewhat cheap and the buttons have a "plasticky" feel to them. Things got even worse when i turned the radio on as it didn't pick up a single DAB station. Had no problem with a friends DAB radio so i can only assume it was a problem with this model. Have since purchased a Pure Evoke 2xt which although more expensive is exceptionally good and automatically picked up many DAB stations. The 1 star is for Amazons excellent returns policy.

The first review nailed the problem for me,it's the clear plastic covering on the silver tape head which in my opinion seems to be causing all the issues.So take it off and happy motoring.

This walkman definately outbeats all in its price range. For just over £30 it does what you would expect a £50+ wallkman to do. The feather touch buttons and super-long battery life make this a great value-for-money gift for someone, or even just for yourself!

Tape players are old fashiond and old, Spending £40 on a tape walkman isnt the way to go, rewinding and fastforwarding is anoying and eats the battery, Minidisc is the way to go.
