Default compact digital voice recorder with >3 hrs memory at high quality?

Hi all,

Here I am looking for a compact digital VR which could hold more than
3 hrs of data in a generic format like mp3 which could be *reliably*
converted into print. Removable storage media is a must in case I run
out of memory in the middle of a meeting. Othertwise, I don't need
add-on cool stuff like stereo mp3 players, flashing lcd displays,
etc., The price is not a big issue. I did perform a google search,
and Olymus DS 3000 looks attractive, but... They say it holds up to
3000 min; is the quality good enough to be reliably transribed? I
don't have any experience with VR at all. Any suggestions?

Thank you in advance,

Buying a digiVR is all very well, but your question falls down when you=20
say *reliably*! (your emphasis)
Voice recognition still isn't really that reliable, although if you're=20
only using it in meetings then background noise shouldn't be an issue,=20
in which case you could have a PC transcribe it for you...should produce =

a few good laughs as well!
If your budget's tight then you could just look for an MP3 player with a =

built-in voice recorder. I've seen one without removable storage for =A37=
0=20
that claims to store 4.5hrs of voice, but if you need one with mem cards =

then it'll probably cost =A3100+.
The Olympus appears to be one of the best on the market, and if you're=20
going to have it all typed up by hand, then the recognition problem is=20
irrelevant.

Hope this helps,
Allan Lewis.
