It's more like 5 or 10 minutes. Way. It was thought to be 5-10 minutes, by someone that didn't know how to do the calculation correctly. It was later revised when the mistake in the calculation was discovered. Now, with RomBox, pause is even a worse deal than it was under the original ROM! Pause, is all but useless, for power saving purposes. -- BRENT - The Usenet typo king. :) Fast Times At Ridgemont High Info http://www.FastTimesAtRidgemontHigh.org Voted #87 - American Film Institute's Top 100 Funniest American FilmsReceived on 2003-08-22 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
