But the world is still waiting for the replacement for the
professional grade portable DAT recorder.

I think ,you just made my night. I pick up a second hand tascam DA -P1 with
Sony stereo Mic ( I don't use that too much) for $800.00, last year and
it's been my best friend at the little concerts we do . I thought maybe I
was going backwards in buying it .But the tascam dat works well with the
pair of mic's I use.
