    I interview a lot of people for video production projects. This digital recorder lets me quickly listen to the interviews and select the soundbites I need before getting back to the studio.

    VERY easy to activate to record short messages and play them back later for recollection. In the car, much easier than pulling out a piece of paper and pen and trying to write while driving.
