Right, he didn't say whether he was using an external mic package or
the internal ones. The internals are not going to sound as good as
externals no matter what you do in my limitted experience. Since
they're built into the unit they get all the noise on and around the
unit. Like when you set your field recorder on a table, you get...
"clonk", even if you set it gently.
The sony was only $100 more than the edirol, and I'd heard the
controls on the edirol were a bit lacking, especially compaired with
the r1 which is the only one of these units I actually got to hold in
my hand before I bought it.

I wonder why that fellow of yours didn't like the Zoom? Personally i
find it very good. Ok, with the wrong mics, the external mike input
is rather hissy, but with my Sound Professionals mics and even with
the Church audio mics i have it sounds just fine.

I was going to buy the r09 for my sister. Boy am I glad I didn't.
I asked the guy at the store to show me something to do the same
job with a nicer control surface, and I got the sony pcm50. A!
May! Zing! She hasn't picked it up yet, so it may get lost here
soon and find it's way into my humble technology collection,
smiles. We are both getting the custome built Churche Audio
stc9000 microbinoral package, but I'll probably just plug mine into
my macbook til I get the money for my own sony pcm50 or equivilant.
Don't the big IPod jukebox players record? That would surprise me
if they didn't, especially because a few of them or rockboxable. I
looked at the zoom last year, but I mentioned to one of my live
show taping compatriets that I was comparing the edirol, the
iriver, and the zoom and leaning towards the zoom because of the
significant price break. He told me he'd made some test recordings
with the edirol and the zoom, and the zoom hadn't stacked up.

Welcome to the list. Still using the R-09? (smile)
Nope, actually i changed to a Zoom H2 which i found less noisy,
but not before managing to change batteries and close the
compartment.:-) Wonder if there are recordable ipods, that is
Ipods with recording on them?:)
