Once you are aware of that, it is not really a problem. to check that it is turned off, I always press the button again briefly. If it goes from pause to play, then I know it is not turned off. I think that is a minor problem and think the player is excellent. Well worth thirty quid in my view.

Especially as it takes such a long time to boot. -----Original Message----- From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Mark Threadgold Sent: 13 June 2007 09:01 To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: Switching on the Zen Stone Caarol, that seems to be what happens. I was thrown by the long time taken for it to start once turned on. If that's what it does then I can live with that! Many thanks all.

It will start. It's just a bit slower than we'd expect. -- Carol carol.pearson@xxxxxxxxxxxx ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mark Threadgold" <m.j.threadgold@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: "accessuk list" <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, June 13, 2007 8:20 AM Subject: [access-uk] Switching on the Zen Stone > Is there a particular way to turn on the Zen Stone please?
