^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
that's what i did
it (the 5115 unit) had too many nigling
little problems (poor video quality when using
the 2 hour format, very poor lip sync at all
speed setting)
the 5115 Lite-On unit cost $120. i got the
Panasonic DMR-ES10 for $180 (same Costco),
and all the little problems went away
