LOVE IT !!!!
Super beautiful in ALL respects. Some quirks exist but easy to accept.
FM radio is amazing and recording off air easy and clear but you must use earphones or headset for FM since they utilize that for the antenna. So you can not turn on the FM and stick it in your pocket and use built in speaker to listen to FM radio.
Instructions not written by American so some interpretation necessary to understand some things. Instructions say ‘ mini SD’ card for expansion but even this site uses ‘ micro’ and ‘ mini’ like they are interchangeable. Will buy expansion card when I figure out what fits.
Warning included about not forcing the USB connection all the way into the machine.. ” A gentle half way … is enough”. Same with 3.5mm plug- has to be placed part way in to have stereo.
Has two ‘ ON ‘ switches. One on side with marking different ( has >>>>>> ) from what is shown in instructions. It must be on then push ‘ play/pause switch for several seconds to turn on. Off can be accomplished with just the play/pause switch on the front.
In the ‘ tech details’ Amazon description says ‘ supports AVI’… when you get the Latte the instructions explain that you must use the software they provide to ‘ convert’ your AVI before sending it through the mini Firewire port… So a computer is needed for the conversion as compared to being able to record directly from a DV camera using a double ended mini Firewire cable.
It arrived in two days. I have only had it a few days and have not tried to access all the features…but the ones I have used are really nice…and for the price..no competition that I know of.
Is this 8GB Latte the same as the 4GB Latte = other then memory?
.
I just purchased the 4GB Latte.
Other then the memory size, is it any different then this 8GB Latte?
Thank You
