I tried ACDSee 4.0, but while the original image was 2 MB, the rotated only like 400 kB, so there must have been a loss in quality.

I ordered some speakers from USA and the seller didn't want to ship USPS (said he won't stay 30 minutes in line at the post office), so he's gonna ship it UPS. I know about the brokerage fees thing, but I don't really know how it works. I hope I won't have to pay any additional fees when they...- Thrasher

Bearing in mind that the H320 is a newer model and has a colour screen I would guess the opposite. Is it just because the H320 lacks the remote and optical recording??- Thrasher
