I purchased a sharp MD-MT821H portable minidisk recorder about months ago, and I think its the best thing since sliced bread. I use it all the time, I don't even play CD's now let alone cassettes.

MT821 weight 79g can play 13 hours (excluding the AA battery) or 8 hours recording time. With the AA batteries can play totally 26hours. 24 bits digital bass sound. digital line in for recording.
