RED RAY - Slots/Button placement?

[Andreas Fernbrant]

I love the idea behind RED RAY!

But as I understand it, it's not intended for archive?
That's too bad. It would be so kick ass if you could make it write red-code from the CF Card to the disk?

My main issue is that the on off button and the CF slot is in the back. Is this an optimal position for these frequent functions? I have the on/off button on the back of an external hdd and it's a pain in the ass to press.

What is your thoughts on this?

Yesterday Jim said he's probably going to move the CF slot to the front.

 

[Andreas Fernbrant]

Nice...
I hope he comes around to doing the power button on the front.
But I can understand form before function

Gotta be honest; if the redray is the universal player then the power button could be on the underside for all I care.

 

[Andreas Fernbrant]

Yeah, But if you had a choice, where would you put it?

I'm not sayin we have a choice or anything....
Just speculatin'

I don't think REDRAY writes on those discs, I guess I read somewhere it's only a player... Maybe freshDV red podcast...
