RE: Psion Wavefinder

["Kevin Hawkins" <lists@xxxxxxx>]

I have good results with both Wavefinders that I have - one on W2K and one W98 - I do not experience any stuttering or software instability - the original W98 install worked fine although I now use DAbbar on both machines as I am playing with the traffic news data stream (TPEG). I am in an excellent signal coverage area though. Line of site to Emley Moor.

I got slightly better results with Dabbar, - went from stuttering the *same*
3-second audio segment over and over and over again, to stuttering about
once every minute or two... much better, but still unable to get through a
whole song without stuttering at least once...

I'd hardly call this a new era of audio entertainment!
