    I like the fact that this recorder has multiple databases to record separate conversations so they are not stacked on top of each other.

    Your basic digital recorder. Without bells and whistles. But who needs all that when you just need an easy way to record on the fly?

    The recorder is super easy to use, but I need to be able to download files to my computer. Will have to research getting a connector chord.

    The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because (my fault, I didn’t read closely) it didn’t have an option to upload it on my laptop. Otherwise it was excellent!

    The only reason that I did not rate for 5* because the camera does not support computer port. Without a port, I could not take the video's tapes out.

    Could use better playback speaker. The volume is a little soft or distorts at higher levels.

    It does the job, but I am really disappointed that there is no way I can upload the voice recordings onto my computer to share, email, etc.... It's technically useless to me if I cannot upload the voice recordings, but not worth returning. I might ask for an exchange, maybe, to a tape recording device that I can upload. If you just need to record, it's fine. Anything else, it's not worth it.

    The recorder is easy to use and handy to carry. The only problem is that you need to hit the sweet spot to get the sound to be very clear.

    I find it has too many details to have to figure out. My preference is a basic "press record, stop, play, save or erase buttons" recorder
