great seller. br / br /great product. br / br /records very well in normal settings...however the software that came with the device is somewhat ancient and difficult to use.


4 out of 5 stars great for ghosthunting   December 1, 2008

this is a great ghosthunting tool, it is inexpensive and records well. i use it with xpaudio and audacity. It hold several differnet files and folders. It does take some getting used to when operating the first few times, I find erasing the right folder difficult, but I am probably one of the most untechnical people, so I need simple technology. However, I am getting used to it, and have found it fits my need perfectly.


3 out of 5 stars Great device with one major flaw   November 28, 2008

I love this device, I carry it everywhere, it is part of my own productivity workflow (combination of GTD, Eat that Frog, and my own systems). br / br /One major flaw is the software, it is extremely slow to transfer as a few people mentioned, but there is absolutely no support for Vista 64 bit. I have contacted them a few times and there is no plans on fixing this. I transfer files from XP 32 bit through VMWare, which is kind of a pain, but I always have it available so it is ok for now. Ultimately I would like to not have to deal with that, I will likely be purchasing a replacement soon as I use this so much I want it to be as efficient as possible. br / br /Another thing I don't like is having to set the date/time and some settings every time I change the batteries (use good recharables, you will get about a month or two on the batteries under lots of use). br / br /Add an Olympus TP7 and you can easily record both ways of phone conversations, great for phone meetings and taking notes. br / br /If it wasn't for the software I would give the device a 4-5 star.
