There's really nothing to get hot in it (other than the batteries maybe).  The 722/744 gets hot because of the hard drive, those things can put off some major heat, especially in such a small space. 

Even though it's limited to 24/48, I'm seriously considering this one.  I just have to figure out which is more important - bit perfect 24/48 on the PMD671 or resampled digital inputs on the Edirol R4.  ;)

I don't think anyone was planning to run this as an all-in-one 24 bit box anyway.

can this be used with a ua5 to run 24/48 ?

i guess the question is, can a ua5 record 24 bit without a laptop? so when a 24 bit hd recorder comes out that is worth buying do i have to ditch the ua5, or can i use it ?

Yes, if you have the digi ua5

the pmd-671 is now listed on the US marantz website...
I checked the manual and it looks like it will after all handle 24/96 digi in..

this is copied directly from the manual..

Digi-IN

Digital audio data at 44.1kHz, 48kHz or 96kHz input through the DIGITAL IN jack can be recorded Digital input always includes two channels, They are recorded as Left and Right stereo channels.

the flash is going to put it way over $1K...the R4 still has it beat at that price point

wont be a bad option though as a stand alone recorder once the cost of flash comes down significantly

This pretty much makes up my mind for me.  Looks like the PMD671 will be my next purchase. ;D

Exactly AND it won't re-sample through the digi in like the R4, AFAIK ...

all great points guys, now who is coming out w/ even a cheaper one, Sony/Tascam ???

1k isnt a bad deal, and the bigger distributors like SS/Cascade will prolly have em a bit cheaper hopefully

and when the flash comes down, id much rather spend 1200 on 24/96 rather than 2600 on the all in one box, cause i like my v3 damnit ;D

some feel that HD based recorders are going to have problems because of (1) heat, (2) vibration, (3) moving parts...

all that being said, I ran a 722 on the floor of a club in a bag, where it got warm, and the floor bounced up and down all night, and I had no issues....
