Recommend a cassette "walkman" mic in recording please
Hi, I want a cassette "walkman" (doesn't have to be sony) with a mic in recording please. In particular, I want it to have a mic in. I want to use it with a headset that has a microphone. I would prefer it to be black (basic, classic style, nothing overstylised, I want it to be suitable for business-like usage), and I'd prefer it to have a red recording button. As much as possible I'd prefer to do things with buttons and don't want an LCD and menues. I want to be able to use it without looking at it. If it has an FM tuner that would be a plus, though not necessary. It should be inexpensive, either as new or on ebay. Any ideas? |

Probably good enough, if you aren't after too much. The Sony is as good as just about any full size model, so probably overkill for you - that is the full model name by the way. d Pearce Consulting http://www.pearce.uk.com |

There, I found the model I prefer http://tinypic.com/so4m53.gif It's a mono dictaphone. Looks much better than the Sanyo for my needs. |

Actually not; the model designation (I have mine here) is WM-D6C.
