I got this awesome little Aiwa CS-350U from Ebay. It is very cool and has quite a few features. I think it is pretty rare,Ive never seen this model before except for the original Aiwa ad. Here is some pics for you.

I like the sax playing gnome in the ad! Enhances the "mini" aspect. Very nice going there Skip!

I have a black one, and it is a really nice mini. Loaded with features and feels really high quality. My favourite thing about it is the spring assisted handle like its big brother the cs880. Nice score skippy

Very nice find. Looks sleek and well built. Heh, "skip over unwanted material", I remember doing that with my tapes half the time back in the day. Love the LED digits on the front. I can't get enough LEDs!

Can you show us a pic of your black one??
