This digital voice recorder is very small so it's easy to carry with you. I suggest purchasing a strap since it wasn't included, but there's a hole for one. I found it to be a little complicated because of all the features it has. However, once I master it, I'm sure it will be perfect for the use I purchased it for (paranormal investigations).

This is a great product to record lectures. It doesn't matter where you sit in the classroom, the audio quality is great. The only problem is that you can't transfer the tape recordings to a PC, you can only listen to it on the device. It should be PC compatible.

I got my sony recordable quickly. I was disappointed in the product. It doesn't come with plug in to download what you have recorded to the computer. Really wasn't what I was hoping for. It is very sensitive to noise. You need a very quiet place when recording because it picks up every little sound. I wanted it to have for record lectures in school but it is difficult to hear the lecture through the other noises in the classroom. I should have actually purchased what I was looking for in a recorder from a store in town. Decent price and not worth the cost to send it back.
