How about the Archos recorder? 20 GB HD and line in and line out. Creative
Labs Nomad III also used to have a recorder in their lineup, but I have not
been able to find that last time I looked.

I need a voice recorder to record the conversation inside the cockpit of
a small airplane. The only way this is practical is to have an external
mic jack, or a line in jack, so I can tie the recorder into the
intercom. The reason I am looking into the MP3 voice recorders is
because they generally have a very long record time, and so I can also
use it to play songs through the intercom when I don't need to record.
I also need to be able to play it back through the intercom so it needs
to have a line out or headphone jack that I can hook into the intercom.
I have found a large number of MP3 Players/voice recorders but most say
nothing about external mic jacks. Any help in finding something would
be great.

Just beware that it records only in compressed formats. Also, the
firmware is a little unfriendly at times, although there's an
open-source replacement available which I hear has gotten better.

Neither of these will play back MP3's while recording.



None will. You need separate units if you want to record and play at the
same time. A laptop with a full duplex sound card might be able to do it.

Here is the source for the open source replacement. Also note that the
Archos has only an 8mb buffer versus the Nomad III Jukebox which has 16mb
and can be accessed using both USB 2.0 and Firewire. I believe that both
have line in and mic in. There IS a difference!
