I agree with you Jose; I love the recording feature. I mainly use it for short, close up recordings like phone numbers, messages or if I need imfo from my bank book. It is a great, close rainge recorder. I can have someone record my checks and I can go and log them on the computer at my own pace. I have told this before, but I was in a hotel with nothing to write and I needed a doctor's number. I made the call and when I repeated the number back, I put the recorder on and recorded myself saying the number. Bingo, I had the number where I could listen to it and refer back to it as much as necessary. Thanks HW. Terry Powers
