Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community Dec 9, 2005
Pros: Light weight, small size, easy use, USB BaaAbbbbyyyy!
Cons: Sound quality on the built in speaker is a bit tinny...to be expected but true!
Summary: I am an old school kind of guy. Never had any use for these "new fangled" digital voice recorders. The old micro cassette that I carry in my briefcase has served me long and well. That is until I was convinced by a buddy of mine to give the Olympus ... read more

Pros: Small, sleek, versatile, reliable, good reception, good playback, computer storage of conversations, excellent buy.
Cons: Difficult for the computer-software challenged, battery-operated only, lacks delete button, computer access needed.
Summary: This digital voice recorder is an excellent tool that I use when I want to ensure that my words versus another had to be confirmed/verified. I used it in a legal matter where it confirmed that the person had lied. He was unaware that he was being taped ... read more

Pros: Fantastic and clear quality playback, easy to use, fast,
Cons: Cannot record 16 hours continuously.
Summary: I was very happy when I bought this Digital recorder. Gone are the days when I would have to rewind cassettes, stop, listen, play. The VN-960's ability to transfer to your PC, create an audio/data file on CDR which can be played on your car/home stereo ... read more

Pros: Reliable, portable, maybe even loveable
Cons: Folder system could be complicated for the technically challenged
Summary: As a full-time journalist and admittedly sloppy and slowhand (not to be confused with shorthand) note taker, I have always been in need of a reliable recorder. Like the caveman that I am, I for years used mini-cassettes, but that technology failed me ... read more

Pros: long battery life, transfer to computer, clear enough recording quality, price!
Cons: Can't think of anything bad enough about it -- no pause button
Summary: This is GREAT. I really am impressed with this device and happy I bought it over other models. It is really refreshing, after coming across so many crappy items out there, to find something of quality for a good price. Battery life is impressive. ... read more

Pros: Excellent sound quality with a recorder that is easy to use and operate.
Cons: Terrible and slow transfer software. It is difficult to install and operate.
Summary: This is an excellent high quality recorder. It has great sound quality and works with ease. The one problem is the software which makes transfer from the recorder to the computer a task. It was slow, very slow. The Olympus WS200S, on the other hand,

Pros: Ease of use,good windows software, good quality nice design. Light, small and inexpensive.
Cons: Not supported under linux kernel. Company should understand linux compatibility = selling more = $$$.
Summary: Lost most of rating becausd there is (at the moment of writing) no support for the linux platform (as read at http://www.linux-usb.org/ ). It is a shame. I use the kernel 2.4.31 and I get the message kernel: usb.c: USB device 7 (vend/prod 0x7b4/0x20d)

Pros: Standard Features
Cons: Drivers/Software
Summary: The voice recorder itself is fine, but the software is rather useless. While I could get the software installed on my Windows XP Pro system, when I was reading the manual to learn how to use it, I ran across this little nugget: Note USB support is
