How do you use yours? Do you still have a card floting around that works? Or is there still some luck in getting 1 that will?

If we could come to terms, I'd gladly buy yours. This is Vicky Vaughan and my email is vrvaug...@mailzone.com and my phone is: 412 600 4379 if you wish to get rid of it.

I got a ptr1 from a friend in 2007 and used it a couple of times but find it wasn’t so good. So its just a dust collector for me too. I record sometimes with my Iphone and thats ok for voice recording at least. I wish i had money to buy a better player but there are so many things i want. /A > On 12 Sep 2016, at 04:47, Hamit Campos <hamitcam...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi just for grins and giggles I just charged my trusty old PTR1 the other > day and thought man how sad that this $895 device is just sitting here > collecting dust and what not.
