Well, you can always go to the file properties and see if it will read
them. If not, then I suggest you look at the dm7. Its a new model, and
for the first time ever, its now possible to set the date and time and
it speaks everything, even file properties. I also were able to set
the recording timer, alarm and using the skedular or calendar easily.
Its truly the most accessible ever.
