GREAT REVIEW OF THIS PRODUCT FOUND ON THE WEB...CAN'T GO WRONG WITH THIS UNIT!!! GREAT GIFT FOR STUDENTS...JUST CAME OUT AT A REALLY GOOD PRICE!!
I picked it up in Singapore a couple of months ago and it's just what I want - something that records very high quality sound and can be plugged straight into the PC's USB port without requiring any cable or software. And it records in MP3 format! I need to give recordings of sessions to clients, so they must be MP3 without requiring time-consuming conversion (like my last Sony recorder) and quality is very desirable too.
Of course this might not be perfect for everyone. First, the high-quality files get pretty big, but if you want high quality (i.e. the top 192kbps setting), that goes with the territory. The 128k setting is 2nd best quality and still perfect for voice so I will use that and save some memory as I only bought the 1Gig version. Down to 48kbps and 32kbps and then 8kbps I guess if you need to record the stated 287 hours maximum of sound.
The menus are a little fiddly and delete is not convenient at all, having said that you can delete easily from your PC when it's plugged in. Some software for manipulating files would have been great, but I'm happy with a machine that isn't giving me headaches.
Oh yes - the manual seems to say that with the model with 1 gig of memory, you can get a maximum of 11 hours at top quality recording and 17 hours with the 128kbps quality. More than enough for me, though remember you can pay more for the versions with 2 Gigs and I think 4 gigs.
In short - an excellent product! Only downside - the clunky menus, but in the end I only use the recording options and then drag all the files on the PC. So it's great for that.
Final tip: Using the "Hold" button seems to conserve battery life too.
