Talk:Elcaset

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I thought it was called Elcaset rather than Elcassette. Can anyone confirm? Lee M 18:49, 22 Aug 2003 (UTC)

I've gone to the talk page to ask the same question. I think it was Elcaset. I will verify on Google. Ericd 20:26, 22 Aug 2003 (UTC)

[edit] Finland?

Really? I seem to remember reading an article in HiFi World magazine (circa 1995) which stated that the unsold Elcaset recorders were dumped en masse into the North Sea. 217.155.20.163 23:05, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

Who knows what really happened to all of those units (might be true both ways) but see the above link (found now in the article references, too). It definitely documents that at least a sizable portion (about 2000) of them were auctioned off and the winner was a Finnish consumer electronic retailer which sold the units at an unprecedented bargain. --jibun_{≈παντα ρει≈} (keskustele!) 07:05, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
