Hi Simon, It also has a horrible, if quiet, noise when on batteries. All the best -- Computer Room Services: the long cane for blind computer users.

I also found it super easy to get it recording, and it isn't too pricy either, especially for all the features it has on-board.

Hi All Sorry to pose the perennial problem once again, but can I have recommendations for the most suitable accessible MP3 recorder/player that would fit my requirements most closely? A couple of times a year I need to make recordings from different analogue sources, all of which have a standard headphone or line outlet, so my first requirement is for a player which can record to MP3 via a line in socket. the quality needs to be good, but no more than 44.1 kHz, 16 bit at 128 kbps. It would be nice if it recorded to an SD or CF card, otherwise a USB port would be essential as I'd like it to play back standard MP3 files downloaded from my computer, but at an increased speed, at least 50%. As it would be used infrequently, it should ideally take ordinary alkaline batteries, and maybe it could play back daisy audio books. So what about the book courier or the new book port 2, or the edoral or the milestone 311, or the Olympus ds50? All advice would be gratefully received.
