Hi John. The Olympus DS series has been demoed by a number of people on this list and you could download the files to listen to at your own convenience, by visiting the following address and clicking on the appropriate link: http://www.blindcooltech.com/. Personally, I'd pay attention to those files created by a Mr. Neal Ewers as these looked deep into all aspects of this device. I purchased the Olympus DS50 from a British company at: http://www.iansyst.co.uk/reviews/ds40-review/ For about £250 and I'd highly recommend it. It seems to me that many folks on this list are Ederal lovers and currently live under the misapprehension that their Ederal devices are God's own little children and they will do everything within their powers to change your mind and encourage you to purchase one of these, other than any other digital recorders. Don't listen to them! There are others on this list who have opted for a device known as the Zoom Recorder, who likewise, live outwith reality. The day will come when all of the people on this list will arrive at the conclusion that the Olympus DS50 is the best of them all, hahaha. You were looking for a British user of the DS50. I'm from Scotland! Do I qualify? Please get back to me if you need any more information on this fantastic little device and ignore all the silly responses on the list that this message may cause. Best wishes. Andy. ----- Original Message ----- From: "John Farley" <john_farley@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, February 15, 2007 6:25 PM Subject: [access-uk] Olympus DS-50 Voice Recorder / MP3 player > Hello list, > > I have come across this Olympus DS-50 unit on a different list. > > It sounds like it could be very useful indeed as it has voice output for > its > controls. > > A description of it can be found on www.olympus.co.uk if you are > interested. > > Does anyone have any experience of using one of these in the UK? > > From a quick look around it would seem to cost about the same number in > the > US and the UK, apart from the fact that the nice American folks pay in > dollars and we have to pay in pounds; so they get it for almost half the > price, again. > > Could we purchase from the US and then buy a UK AC adaptor? > > > > > Regards, John. > > John Farley > > Personal Contact Work contact > Phone : 01442 259243 01923 438172 > Mobile: 07815 056076 07785 928755 > Fax : 01442 437909 > E-Mail: john_farley@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx john.farley@xxxxxxxx > *********************************************************************** > > ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- > ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] > ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: > ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > ** and in the Subject line type > ** unsubscribe > ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the > ** immediately-following link:- > ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] > ** or send a message, to > ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq > > ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
