I have both units and never use the BP anymore, I could
never get the batteries, no matter what type, disposable or rechargeable, to
last more than four or five hours. I listen primarily to audio so that may
be a factor. As far as the voices, if you don’t like the two voices that
come with the Stream, just install the SAPI 5 voices and it sounds exactly
like the BP. I like that I can plug in my Victor when the batteries run low
and charge it while I’m still listening. The keypad is much more robust,
this is my second BP and the rubber keys kept falling off the first one plus
the battery cover kept falling off.
Being a total, I find the Victor more accessible to me but that’s just my
opinion. The microphone is awesome and the recordings are the highest
quality I’ve ever found in a digital recorder. I also much prefer the SD
card since the BP has a 4GB limit and I can use up to a 32GB SD card on the
Victor, that’s an awful lot of disk space and the transfer process is much
faster to me.
I do like the BP for what it is but I’m a very happy Victor customer which
is why I’ve been trying to sell my BP for the last couple months.
