Peter Prosica here in the U.S. at IRTI has told me Plextor is considering offering a "Pro Pack" firmware package that would contain all of the recording and editing features now found on the larger Plextalk units.  I understand there would be a charge for this.  I applaud this move and strongly urge that you provide these features as soon as possible.  Thanks.

Peter hit it on the nose.  There are many great features on  the pocket
but this is currently one of the major aggravations regarding its
operation. The other thing that I am finding a little annoying Is its
response time to commands which lags  behind both the ptr1 and 2.  It
would really be great if this could be improved.

Hi Marc, and many thanks for the quick and helpful response.  It's
really encouraging to know that someone from Plextor is indeed
monitoring the list.

I'm talking about the ability to move within a single MP3 file.  I
often have MP3 files of up to two hours in length, and need to jump
to different points in the file, including skipping past sections or
going back a little way to hear something again.

At the moment this is extremely difficult to do.   The only way to
move is by holding the right and left arrows, but as an example,
suppose you want to jump forward three minutes.   You have to hold
the right arrow for a very long time, waiting until it says "plus
five minutes".   Then the left arrow and wait for "minus one minute",
then left again for another minute.

What I'm requesting is something similar to what the PTR1 does within
DAISY books when you choose "navigate by time".  This allows you to
press left and right-arrow repeatedly to move by minute, or by
ten-minutes if held down, and allows quick and easy jumping, so if
this, or something similar,  could be implemented in MP3 files for
the Pocket it would be great.

Best,

Peter
