I can't remember exactly what was said, but I seem to recall that Larry made 
a pretty strong statement about batteries when this was discussed 
previously. I, too, would like to see some kind of arrangement where both 
regular batteries and something rechargeable could be used and the 
suggestion that it resemble the old Handy Cassette sounds good to me. There 
are just times when you're not in a position to recharge if you're limited 
only to that option.

I don't mind a rechargeable battery pack but I hope they make you can put
regular batteries in it when the rechargeable one goes dead.
