One guy complained loudly that the buttons on the Olympus recorder his office manager bought him were waaaay too tiny for his great big beefy fingers.... When my last working tape machine quit working and I refused to buy another one, I MADE him switch to the digital recorder--and guess what. He can push those itty bitty little buttons JUST FINE. :)
Thanks for the input! - Abby

I have heard Olympus and Sony are good, as well as Sanyo. I appreciate the comment!
Thanks,

DS2400 is what they use right now.
One Doc had a complaint about the slide control on the side, and one just recently went to the 5000 I think. Haven't heard anything negative yet.

Well, I Just Bought A Brand New Computer With Windows 7 And Apr 13, 2014everything updates to the hilt and I am finding my typing screen has a lag to it. I have tons of ram, etc etc and I wonder if Norton is playing a roll. It isnt a terrible lag but when you type very fast it will locked for a few seconds. It isnt like waiting on words to appear it is more a lock type lag if you type too fast. I find these new computers are most assuredly nothing like the older ones that i have had. Much more chintzy and of course made in China. ...
