I don't know as I don't use any of the digital recorders. I have a Victor 
Reader stream and it does what I need it to do if I needed to record notes. 
May not be the latest and greatest, but it does what I need it to do for me. 
Sony gave me a number to let them know about suggesting accessibility but, I 
know how far that's going to go. And that teators on a topic that has been 
brought up on this list in the past by me and I am not going to bring it up 
again because I was hammered for it.
