@ticky ooooh, nice, ty

I found a Sony MZ-N1 for a great price so I think I'm gonna go for it. I'd love to have the cradle too but ooof

@noiob ahh that one’s gorgeous, one thing to bear in mind is you will likely need a proprietary USB cable or the dock to sync it, so I’d suggest making sure the listing includes it!

I’m not 100% across the N1, but I *think* the dock has a standard mini-USB connector on the back, but the player doesn’t.

@ticky ahh, that explains why it's so cheap

@noiob you’d be able to record to it via optical, and it very likely charges the NiMH via a barrel jack, not USB, and docks generally aren’t that expensive if you’re willing to delve into Japanese auctions, but yeah.

@ticky well, I already have a minidisc recorder with optical in

@ticky also like, I love me a device that docks

@noiob yeppp they’re cute! I kinda split the difference with my MZ-N920; it docks to charge, but has a standard USB Mini-B jack on the side. Not perfect but nice!

@ticky *looks at ebay* ah

@ticky gosh sony designers were on fire back then
