RCA RP2800 Personal CD Player Review

I use a portable CD player on a daily basis, primarily to listen to audiobooks (i.e. as MP3 players have almost obsoleted CD's;except there is a very large selection of CD audiobooks available at your local library!).Here are my requirements for portable CD player:
- anti-skip: don't buy one without it, since the player isn't really portable without it;otherwise every little bump creates havoc, sometimes even skipping tracks.Without it, this will even happen in a car with it laying on the front seat!
- LCD display: I need to sometimes note the track# and time, so I can mentally bookmark my location if I get preoccupied with something else during my listening;a bunch of portable players have NO display.
- lock/hold: I need to have mine in my backpack, so it's also annoying to bump one of the controls and have it go into repeat track mode, or stop, or something stupid like that.The 'lock' button will disable the button controls until you unlock it.
- battery life: the trick is to buy AA NiMH 2000mAh+ batteries and charger;I get 10-12 hours listening time.(Alkalines get you half of that, if you're lucky.)
- auto-off on CD end:nothing like finishing a CD, and having to remember to turn it off (to save batteries);this one will go off by itself.

This RCA rp2800 has all the above, so I recommend it;especially since it's at a good price point compared to the alternatives.Plus, it has the following which makes it better:
+ the display is on the edge, which makes it convenient when needing to remeber a track#, when it's inside a bag/backpack.(
+ the volume controls are also on the edge, also convenient when needing to adjust the volume;the lock button is next to these same controls, also handy when having to unlock it to adjust it.
