Rating: Summary: STAY AWAY Review: To potential owners of the Vianix SASO, I have recently reached the end of my rope with both the SASO and the Vianix corporation and it was a very long rope. The first 2 SASOs I received were immediately defective right out of the box. The first had horrible playback and the second wouldn't record at all. The third SASO I receive had defects that showed up later in transferring data from the SASO to my PC and the FOURTH SASO I received was defective with horrible playback. I spoke directly to Ed Prokop of the Vianix Corporation and after he gave me the run around for many months and broke many promises and verbal agreements he still provided NO COMPENSATION for his miscommunication. The SASO itself is very lacking. The one unit I had that partially worked was not very impressive. It is slow. The software is choppy. The supposed "high quality" recordings were never what you might expect from high quality. The battery life is not very long. The mic jack only works with powered microphones. It is in NO WAY RELIABLE AS AN MP3 player. The only time I could get it to play MP3s was when I reduced the quality of the MP3 to 128kbps. The names for any of the files can't be more than 9 characters long (aprox.) and you cannot put spaces in (so, if you try to transfer an MP3 with a full name it will call it "corrupted" and it will delete the file). The transfer rate from the unit to the computer is done through a SERIAL cable and is extremely slow. It's decent, at best, for the highly condensed voice files but it takes upwards of 15 minutes for a single MP3. Deleting files from the unit also takes an exceedingly long time. I would discourage any one from buying the SASO and I would also discourage anyone from dealing with the Vianix Corporation or any product that carries the Vianix name.
