Rating: - Sleek look and clear recording
I bought the Digital recorder after a lot of research and I am hugely satisfied with this product. It is sleek, extremely light weight and the recording quality is very good.
Rating: - Great purchase!
This item was highly recommended by a friend that had made this purchase. It has lived up to everything they said. I'm very pleased.
Rating: - It just works
This recorder/player works well for me. I use it in four ways:
1. Record notes and memos to myself for later action.
2. Record meetings for later transcription into personal records or official minutes.
3. Record narrations of presentations while practicing. Those narrations are then played into Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 Preferred to be turned into typed text. I then clean up the text into a better script and paste it into the Notes area of each slide.
4. Play music when I am not working.

Rating: - Good Digital Voice Recorder
At over $100, I thought the recorder would have performed just a little better--clarity and volume of playback was not what I was expecting. However, when I played it back through a good set of headphones, the sound was much improved. Still, a useful tool.
Rating: - Liked It So Much I Bought Another One
I recently lost the first recorder I bought when I forgot it in a classroom at school. I was very happy with it and purchased the same recorder a second time. I purchased this digital voice recorder to tape my lectures at school. I had a hard time picking one out, but I finally decided on this one for the 2GB storage. I was very happy with the decision. It picked up my professor's voice in a big lecture room where I sat all the way in the back. There is a little bit of hissing with playback, but I feel that is expected.
