You must be thinking of the R55. The R50 lasts 4 hours on recording and 7
hours on playback. The R90 lasts 6.5 hours when recording and 11 hours on
playback. The R90 is better, but the R50 is adequate for most purposes.
And if you need more time, adding AA batteries should give you whatever
you need.

You *must* be thinking of the R55.

Why should I have to?
