| There's some discussion in note 1252.
It's most notable feature is that it's about 3" square!

The Sony D88 is pretty small. It is about 3" square and plays both
the 3" and 5" disks. I thought about this one for awhile but decided
on the D15 instead. The reason being is that I like to walk with
the unit and I didn't really like the idea that the 5" disk sticks
out on two sides collecting dust from the atmosphere and the roads.
The D15 plays both 3" and 5" also and the disk is completely enclosed.
The size of the D88 was really tempting but I passed on it because
of the above. You can get the D88 for $329. at Lechmere or you can
save about $100. (that's right!!) and purchase it at Service
Merchandise. If you do decide to go with Service Merchandise (who
wouldn't) then buy it in N.H. and save the taxes. Have fun!

John, what was the D15 price at Service Merchandise.
|
| 1306.5 | No D15 at Service Marchandise! | BPOV02::MICHAUD | Think about software that thinks! | Wed Aug 24 1988 07:53 | 8 |

Neither of the Service Merchandise stores carried the D15. They
only had the DT4, D88 and Tech. XLP5 or something like that.
I ordered my D15 from WDS for $268. That is the cheapest price
that I've seen so far. Lechmere has the D15 on sale now for
$299.

Re .5
The best I have been able to find is
$279.00 at the Sony Dealership on Franklin Street in Framingham
Garino's Audio/Video. 875-5969
They will order for you but you must pick it up.
Pray tell explain WDS - is this a mail order catalog, store, Cd Speak-easy?

| WDS is Wisconsin Discount Stereo, a mail-order firm that regularly
advertises in the audio and video magazines. They have a good
reputation, though I have never dealt with them.

| I bought a VCR from WDS two or three years ago with no problem. They
were a pleasure to deal with.
