I have the Olympus ws-100s. I love it and you don't need any cords to download.

I have two friends with these. I splurged and bought the 300, but all three of us use them to record audio (with a decent mike) for soundslide presentations.

Great little recorder.

The digital ones are great, especially if you get one that allows you to set bookmarks while you're recording. Makes going back through it a lot easier.

If you get one with a mic port, you can buy a device at radio shack that lets you record phone interviews, if it's legal in your state. To put stuff on your computer, get a cord that can plug into the headphone jack on the recorder and the mic jack on the computer, then play the tape while you record on the computer, using whatever program you have. I've never done it, but a colleague has.

I don't know why I never thought of using the headphone jack --> mic jack idea before. Just tried it and work. Wow, that's great.

I'll have to check on the phone thing too, as well as laws in FL.

Recording a phone call is always legal if both parties know about it.

Can't imagine an interview subject objecting anyway. They want you to quote them right.

Hey, join a mosque. Then, if you miss something on a call, just give Big Brother a ring and ask if they can fax you the transcripts.
