The minidisc.org site claims the [[equipment:pioneer:portable:pmd-r3|Pioneer PMD-R3]] and [[equipment:kenwood:portable:dmc-j7r|Kenwood DMC-J7R]] are the same unit.

A rare red version of the MD-MS702 exists as the model MD-MS702-Red. The back features the Danish rock band  [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Learns_to_Rock|Michael Learns To Rock]]  This is likely a promotion for the 2001 compilation album [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/19_Love_Ballads|19 Love Ballads]] which came out in Europe with an exclusive red cover.
