Password / PIN protection? Hello,

I am wondering if any of Sony, Olympus, or Philips voice (audio) recorders have a function to lock the device - ie. password/PIN protection, so that if someone picked it up, they wouldn't be able to access the files (kind of like an iPhone lock).

Thank you!

Not the basic Sony digital recorder model.

Nice feature. Sonys don't have such. I'd buy a recorder that such a feature.

This product (Sony Digital Voice Recorder) does not have a means to lock the device to prevent access, though individual files may be locked to read-only status. For more information on the respective models of interest, I recommend visiting the manufacturer website and reviewing the Owner's Manual. The manuals are usually a free download. I hope this helps.
