What is "the lowest quality" og? Becaseu the lowest quality MP3 at 44KHZ is
32 kbps, a far cry from 128. Anyway, to answer your questions the
braillenote does support stereo recording and I don't see why you couldn't
record using hte line in component.

Subject: [Braillenote] Recording on the Braille note.
Hi there, a couple of questions and the reason why I'd like ot see ogg
support on the bn.
1. Can the braille note accept devices that send a line level signal, i.e,
keyboards, other radios, etc on the microphone jack?
2. Is this jack only a mono input?
A pc is probably better for this type of thing though, but just curious as
it seems the pac mate can do stereo recordings from other devices.
Now, the reason I like ogg files a lot. As things stand, a high quality
recording (one at 44.1 khz, 16 bit), will take 5 mb in mono, and 10.5 mb
in stereo when recording the radio, per minute.
Now, with an ogg file, at the lowest quality, which still does sound very
acceptable, 1 minute only takes up a tiny 600 kb!
Big difference? Even a standard 128 kbps mp3 takes roughly 1 mb per
minute, so you can see why I'd like to see compressed format support added
to the voice recorder.
Cant wait to get my hands on an mPower though, I love the responsiveness
of the radio, and I can see that the database is going to be very cool.
Thanks,
Arthur.
