But I’ve got to Mambo!

View Category Well, I received some disheartening news about one of the gadgets I planned to discuss here.  A while ago I had ordered a Mambo X MP3-compatible portable CD player, and I just received word it was finally ready to ship.  Unfortunately, according to the e-mail I just received, “some features have changed since the original specifications.  Track and title names are no longer supported, as are the playlist and search capabilities.  A constant bitrate from 64kbps - 160kbps is supported.  Variable bitrate at 50% is supported (VBR50).”  So reluctantly I’ve decided to cancel my order and hope for some form of second generation Mambo X.

Changes

    I worked on some RealVideo files for my Buffett section and I also double-checked and updated my Links page.  —All to the tune of Rhino’s stellar Superman CD reissue.
