* Awesome recorder ...
What an awesome digital recorder! I've used it for several different things, including recording a workshop I attended. With the different folders and indexes available its easy to download recordings to my computer and share them with others. I would definitely recommend this recorder to others.

Simply awesome!
This voice recorder is awesome! It has a powerful enough microphone to record when a professor is lecturing half-way across the room, and you can still clearly hear them on play-back. It is easy to use, transfer data to your PC and organize. I highly recommend this to anyone who is looking for a simple recorder, and wants to be able to share files with their computer.

Olympus VN-4100PC Digital Voice Recorder
I am very pleased with the recorder. I was amazed by it's small size. In spite of this, it has many great features, and good sound quality. I highly recommend this product.

REFURBISHED DOESN'T Work
Do not buy this product. It took almost 3 weeks to arrive, and when it did it came with ONE battery (it needs two), incomplete instructions, and on top of it all...it wouldn't turn on no matter what. Plus I just found out it was a refurbished product - and they won't pay shipping charges to return it. I am extremely unhappy.

* Beware - software does not work with Windows Vista 64 bit ...
I bought this voice recorder, but nowhere did it specify that the software does not work with Windows Vista 64 bit. This of course disables a very important feature of the recorder, so I just sent mine back to Amazon.
