Best Sony Voice Recorders and Transcribers for People

i bought my sony model icd-b600 voice recorder today.

today i received my sony icd-b600 .

pros: works great, helps out a ton cons: none the bottom line: the sony icdb600 hand held digital voice recorder has helped me in many ways.

actually, i have bought this one unintentionally, as was looking for an olympus model, and, maybe, i was mislead by the other sony icdp620 digital voice recorder pc compatible via usb which supports

as a journalist who uses the sony icd-b500, i can tell you i'm super happy with it.

i got 2 of the sony icd digital voice recorders.

i downloaded a pdf listing the manufacturer's specifications of the unit from sony's website.

i have had been using the sony mzm200 professional portable hi md recorder for the past year for digital recording of meetings and lectures.

i am glad that sony added the automatic power off when stopped, i have another digital recorder that does't have a power button, and this is a battery saver.

the icdux70 records directly to the internal memory which can be easily read and written to by any computer that has usb just like a flash card (sony only advertises compatibility with windows and

the files are a lot easier to work with than sony hd minidiscs (what i used to use for this).
