It's really a nice size. As I mentioned, can fit in your pocket. easy to record--makes a new file each time you press record, if I'm remembering correctly. Nice quality sound--clearly not as wonderful as fancy-schmancy mics with a DAT (H tested side by side) but pretty darn good and much more portable and easier to access the recording. (He's thinking this is a much lighter, quicker technology for recording choir trips, but, as I said, not as high-quality as the almost obsolete DAT.) It's like plugging your camera into your computer--you download the files, then do whatever. It can record in various quality levels (mp3, aiff? wav? I am not sure of the terminology), allowing you to record longer for less quality. And, as with a camera, you either need a device to download it to (computer, other?) or have lots of memory cards. H likes it but is still experimenting.
