Hi,

This is only a recorder, so retrieval is not going to be quick.

All the best

Steve

Stevve, 

How quickly can you retrieve matter such as phone numbers and other info
from that device? 

I'm using the Technomate (The Parrot) which has flash memory so retrieving
stuff is quickness indeed but it's nearing it's end and I believe they are
not doing them any more.

Hi,

Yes, we sell it for £179.99.

I think it is tactile enough to be honest, but depends on how sensitive or
otherwise your fingers are.

Nice little recorder though.

All the best

Steve

Hi Steve!

I have the same requirements as Michael for an easy to use, prompt response
recorder.  Do you sell one you recommend?  Can you please advise if it is
tactile enough for not very sensitive fingers?  How much does it cost?

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards,

Padma

Hi Mike,

I highly recommend the DM-670.  It does all you want.

All the best

Steve

Subject: [access-uk] Olympus Voice Recorders

Hello.

At the risk of making everybody groan because I have no doubt this will have
come up before, I am in the market for purchasing one of the Olympus digital
voice recorders for taking notes on the move and recording meetings etc.

There seems to be a dazzling number of options as far as models goes. 
So I'm after recommendations and experiences.

What I need is the following:

1.  Fast deployment.  In other words it needs to be as fast as possible
between deciding I should be recording something to setting the recording in
motion.  A lot of devices seem to have an annoyingly complex sequence to
starting a recording.  Both my Victor Reader Stream and my Plextalk Pocket
fall into this category, especially the Plextalk.  It is annoyingly slow to
start a recording.

2.  Nice to have but not vital would be the 'buffer' option that some
recorders have where they constantly record a few seconds of sound which is
placed at the start of a recording to help to prevent loss of data at the
start, buffering the time it takes to react and press the button.

3.  Record in MP3 preferable.  It would be nice if it recorded in MP3 as
well as maybe WMA and WAV.

4.  Long battery life.  More than an average eight hour work day of battery
life.

So...does anybody have any recommendations?

Mike
