I downloaded the manual.

A handy device, but if you're looking for something flexible, this looks
weak. Its memory is 2GB and not removable -- which means you have to
transfer files before you can record more, and based on the manual,
finding the right files to delete could be nasty. It also doesn't have
phantom power if you want a higher quality external microphone. The PCM
recording is limited to 44.1KHz. And the temperature specs are especially
bad at 41F to 95F (5C-35C).

It looks like all you gain for paying an extra $50-150 is thin -- about
the same HxW and 1/2 the D compared to the H2 or Microtrack. Unless thin
is what is most important, wait for the next generation.
