My apologies if it sounded like I was complaining. I'm actually pleasantly surprised the players are Linux based as opposed to something custom or even Windows based, and honestly, sticking to a working model for a decade is actually kind of refreshing compared to the mainstream electronics manufacturers who release some trivial redesign every few months and try to push some resource hogging bit of eyecandy or some alpha quality new feature that breaks or replaces existing functionality that actually works on older models as a reason to spend hundreds of dollars on a device with only marginally better specs. If I have a complaint unique to the NLS player(limited file format support and DRM are endemic problems with digital media players and digital media distribution respectively and a wide range of devices don't let the user swap in a spare battery), it's the fact the players are bulky compared to just about anything battery powered made this century. Granted, I imagine their are plenty of NLS patrons that appreciate the overly large buttons and the large, room filling speaker, but a cartridge player that could fit in my pocket or in my fanny pack with all my other gadgets would still be nice. -- Sincerely, Jeffery Wright President Emeritus, Nu Nu Chapter, Phi Theta Kappa.
