On a slightly different note, I would like to recommend an app that I use on the iPad. It's called 'Notability'. It costs $1.99 and it is a note taking app. The reason I bring it up in this discussion is its ability to record meetings. I would not use it for good quality sound recordings of an interview, but when you want to record a conversation, meeting, or a close up lecture. Bill
