This is pretty straightforward. Since it doesn't have internal rechargable batteries, you're on your own. But one interesting feature of the player is that you can use either 2 or 4 AA batteries - and you can even mix and match types of batteries, such as Alkaline and NiMH. Kenwood Corporation will release the "DPC-X447MP-B" MP3/WMA playback supporting CD player in the first part of August. The unit is Open Price, but the estimated retail price is 11,000 yen. -DPC-X447MP-B This is a portable CD player that supports playback of MP3 and WMA. Aluminium panels are used on the body, and Kenwood has said since player "is stylish, it has a high grade impression." Also included is a backlit LCD remote controller, though it does not support the display of Japanese characters. As a shock protection function, the "480 second shock guard (ASP)" is included. Shock protection sits at 480 seconds for 64kbps WMA playback, 120 seconds for 128kbps MP3 playback, and 40 seconds for CD-DA playback. To supply power to the player, either 2 or 4 batteries can be used. 2 "NB-3A70" exclusive NiMH batteries are included. When playing back MP3/WMA, using two NiMH batteries gives a life of about 6 hours - using 4 gives about 12 hours. Using Alkaline batteries in the same sense can give 9 and 20 hours. Furthermore, when using 2 NiMH and 2 Alkaline, the life is around 15 hours. Programming can be done up to 64 songs. Repeat, intro scan, and random play modes are also featured. 6 equalizers are preset - flat, classic, pop, jazz, rock, and bass. A line-out jack is also furnished.
