Hello listers, I acquired my BP last December and am enjoying it a lot. I tend to use the memo feature a fare amount. There are times that I don't have my hedphones plugged in when I press the record button and as such am not always sure if the unit went into record mode. I'm proposing an external beep, similar to the external beep that is outputted when a button is pressed and the keys have been locked, so that the user would know that the button was activated. Just my two cents worth. regards, Rob -- Robert Arrabito e-mail: rarrabito@xxxxxxxxxx
