  For me to buy it it also must record in uncompressed wav have good mic
preamps. The edirol isn't that big even if people say it is, and it has
built-in mics, I'd want this device to be comparable to at least the
microtrack. If not using aa batteries, the rechargeable battery should at
least be user-replacable.

  Steven,



  How many hours would such a unit go on one charge?  This would have an
impact on how much I would be willing to pay.  I think I would personally
prefer it if the unit used standard batteries like triple a.  Having said
that, the specs you have outlined sound terrific and I would most certainly
purchase a recorder like that with those accessibility features.  I think my
upper end price would be around $250

  maybe slightly more if it had really really good battery life and used
standard user replaceable batteries.  It would also depend on what bit rates
were supported for mp3 recording and if it had stereo capabilities.  Sounds
like an awesome unit.

  Good morning to all--



  I have a potential unit that I will briefly describe, that some or all of
you might find appealing.

  Would you be willing to pay between  $200 and $400 for a digital recorder
and MP3 player that is completely accessible and is the size of a fat credit
card?

  Some but not all of the features are:



  Records entirely in MP3 format,



  Has two (2) hours of recording time on the internal memory of the unit



  Can be used with SD Memory cards of all sizes up to 2GB



  Ability to label the folders on the unit with your voice folder on both
the internal and memory card for better organization



  The unit only has six (6) buttons for easy use



  Has a rechargeable battery with AC Adapter for charging



  Single push of button provides storage space available and status of
battery



  Manual for operation of unit available in MSWord format in the Internal
Memory



  Would any of you purchase this unit and what would be the maximum you
would pay?
