Hi Tony,
My M.O. with the Vox has been to have it always plugged into the mains when using it at home. That way, it is already at peak to head out the door, when needed to.
This has worked out fabulously (beyond expectation in fact) for my musical needs met. Life is funny...until I had bought a 'Christmas present to myself' in the Vox...I had never even thought to use an eReader to advance my musical interests. Actually, I have been kicking myself ever since for not thinking of this sooner. I am looking to also transcribe, as well as merely have lyrics to the songs at the moment. I have a few programs that look to be adaptable to this purpose. It's getting kind of exciting in fact. I love to play guitar at parks, and while camping, and can't wait until next Spring and Summer to hit the road with the Vox. That it can be easily seen laying flat or at an angle in direct sun (I did my sun certification of the unit..and it is as clear as a bell) is a MASSIVE ad-value to its ownership! Also...and you have to please excuse my level of excitement...that I can increase the font, out in the field, is simply amazing! You can not do that with the published page. For two or three persons looking at the Vox and singing the lyrics will now be a snap. Just set the font size to suit all viewers-over-the-shoulder. Playing piano at parties is also going to be a snap. I come to the end of the page in landscape mode....(hand goes up...finger extended, lite tap) and the page is 'turned'. Yehaw! Hand comes back down....and the blues or jazz is carried on!
What you can (or at least what I can do with this unit in application) is only limited by a cup of coffee, and some time to think about the end result.
I love this thing...and am having
a blast with it!
Cheers,
