Some things I would add to their list:
Holding down the information key while recording gives you more
detailed information on the ptr2
You can toggle live monitoring through the speaker on and off while
recording without having to turn monitoring all the way down
There is no longer separate volume controls for monitering and playback
and guide volume--you adjust the overall volume and a difference between
master and guide levels

a The speed and tone controls reset to default settings when you hit
them

It does say good or high, but you can get a number if you turn it up or
down. This isn't a technical db number...

I think the Recording Level should have the option of saying the
actual numeric values, so one could actually know you were at -5 DB
or 0 DB, for instance--instead of "Good" or "Hight". A choice should
be given as to which designations you desire.
