GRNA Saber

Global Recording Network Australia of Castle Hill announces the arrival of the SABER hand-wind mp3 audio player.

Designed primarily to tell people the good news of Jesus Christ in every language and dialect, the SABER will bring help and hope to many people who live in remote locations. It is simple to use and important messages in any language can be easily loaded from the Internet or a computer onto the 1 GB of onboard memory – enough for 40-50 hours of recording or more! An SD card slot enables even more material to be stored. The built in amplifier and 3-inch speaker make it possible for scores of people to listen together.

The SABER never runs out of power! Built in batteries can be recharged from solar panels, mains supply, an external battery pack or by winding the crank handle.

The SABER will prove an invaluable tool for the developing world, especially in the areas of evangelism and Bible teaching, health and general education, communicating community or government announcements, audio books and stories, teaching songs and literacy development.

More than two thirds of the world’s population are oral communicators; they don’t make use of books to any great extent. They learn by hearing. “So faith comes from hearing, that is, hearing the Good News about Christ.” (Rom 10:17 NLT)

The SABER is the brain-child of Ray Mackaway of Winston Hills and is manufactured by a team of dedicated volunteers from the North West of Sydney.
