Summary: Poor Voice Recorder, Good MP3 Player 2010-02-26
Comment: First off, it comes with no manual or any sort of documentation, which can make it difficult to figure out how to use it, but nothing a half hour of fiddling wouldn't solve, but I have the feeling that there are features I missing because of it.

The voice recording quality is pretty poor. While it has no problems picking up voices, they sound muffled, but are still very understandable. I bought this voice recorder hoping to use it as a way to record audio for video recordings, but it is simply not good enough to use for that. However, I do think it's more than adequate for recording quick thoughts for writing down later.

The MP3 player is pretty good, very simple and to the point, and the sound quality sounds very good to me. I'll probably end up using this more as an MP3 player than I will as a voice recorder.

Connecting it to your computer is very easy, just plug in the standard mini-USB cable that comes with it to your computer and it shows up as an external drive and you can copy and paste files as you please.

The device itself probably isn't worth more than $15, and I'd say that all the accessories it comes with are collectively worth $10, at the very most. So at $35 it isn't a great deal, but it's probably one of the cheaper digital voice recorders I have found. If you're just looking to record your thoughts every once and a while or a small cheap MP3 player, I'd say go for it. Otherwise, stay away.

PROS:
-Records in .WAV format
-Easily connects to computer as external drive via USB
-Good MP3 player
-2 GB
-Lots of accessories (USB cable, clip-on external microphone, headphones, telephone recording set)

CONS:
-No manual
-A little difficult to figure out how to use it
-Poor build quality
-Accessories also have very poor build quality
-Included external microphone isn't better than the on-board microphone
-Sound quality is poor, but good for non-professional use
-Requires AAA batteries instead of having the ability to recharge.
