Buyer's feedback: - * No bells and whistles, but who needs them ...
Back to basics. This Olympus DVR works just fine for recording mock therapy sessions in my psychology class. It's easy to use. The sound reproduction is clear. It has a long battery life.

I'm not a technie or a teenager. So navigating digital equipment isn't organic to me. I need instructions. The more cookbook-like, the better. Before I bought this model, I considered purchasing a similarly priced Sony model because after all I had a number of other Sony products in my audio visual stable. But, eek, reviews of Sony's murky instructions scared me off. The Olympus instructions sheet isn't the best--pictures instead of words. But when I got stuck, I called the Olympus toll-free line, and got through right away to a friendly customer service rep, who easily resolved my issue.

One nit: The "Hold" button is really the on/off switch. I'm not sure why Olympus doesn't call it like it is.
And a caveat: You can't transfer recordings from this DVR directly into a computer. You'll have a pay more to get this feature.

Buyer's feedback: - digital?
I never dreamed that they might make a digital recorder without the ability to download the information to ones computer. Really, what is the point? I'm very dissappointed.

Buyer's feedback: - not happy
this was not worth the money paid for it. Took it on vacation for a once in a life time trip to be able to record the tour guides and it did not pick up anything. was very disapointed.....

Buyer's feedback: - * Lou Review ...
Has many features, one must study the instruction manual in order to take full advantage of all of them. Works very well. Compact and light, great recorder.
