I am visiting Tampa, Florida for about a month from December 6 and will take the opportunity to purchase the DS50 recorder provided the cost doesn't bankrupt me. The Royal National Institute for the Blind in the United Kingdom has issued a guide on using this gadget so I hope to be able to get a lot more out of it. ----- Original Message ----- From: Annette To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, November 26, 2007 8:19 PM Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] question: Olympus ds 30, 40, and 50 recorder
For personal use I have an Olympus 3300 model of some type, and it is about 3 years old. I love it and use it all of the time to record quick notes, lists of to do's, items to buy at the store, items to pack, etc. The DS 40 was purchased for me at work. I use it in a similar way that I use my personal one, but I also use it to record brief items when a co-worker reads them to me. I don't think that I could live with out either device. It is my hope to soon learn how to interface my DS 40 to my computer and make use of the index feature while recording a meeting. Of course this would entail getting the other meeting participants to agree to letting me record the meeting. But I'm not about to stir that pot until I learn to use the indexing feature.

I have had it for a couple of years. I told my wife the other day that if anything ever happened to it, I would have to replace it immediately. I use it for recording little messages and notes throughout the day. I have even taken it to church and recorded the preaching on it and then downloaded it to my computer. It is surprising how good the quality of the sound is. Olympus really puts out a good product. I can't wait to get one of the newer models. It sounds like they are really neat.

I gave up scanning it. I had my husband set the time and read the directions on how to record, play, and erase recordings. I keep telling myself that I'm going to see if I can find an electric version of the manual on line, but just haven't gotten around to it. This is why I haven't learned to interface it with the computer, or use the indexing feature.
