I bought a cheap Olympus device for this, the VN-1000PC. It is very nice as a standalone device, but lets itself down in two simple ways: a) No mass storage unit support. So although it has a USB connector and can be used to transfer files to PC, it has to be a Windows PC using proprietary software. b) Recording timestamp is not preserved in the files created by the Windows software. This is just dumb. The software itself will display the timestamp, so it's known on some level, but it isn't applied as the file system timestamp, nor can I find it in any meta-information. I had hoped to be able to geocode my voice samples in JOSM, but no go with this device. Still, it's OK for ad-hoc notes, and not bad for €39 Dermot -- -------------------------------------- Iren sind menschlich _______________________________________________ newbies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/newbies
