... but there can be a bit too much background noise to be heard brilliantly, so an extra better microphone would be a big help.
I'd guess it would be good if you need it for a meeting or to dictate a letter, but I haven't been needing it for that. I have used a different one in the past (still an Olympus model) for a voiceover for a short film, and the sound quality has come out brilliantly. It didn't pick up outside noise, and it's better using it in a smaller, possibly soundproof room (as these were the conditions I use...morePrice Comparison for Dictaphones in General

I've been needing to use a dictaphone in lectures at university, and the ones I've been using (Olympus digital one) has been pretty good. The built in mic has been picking up sound really well (it has 3 settings, and lecture is one of them, so it's been mainly on that setting) but there can be a bit too much background noise to be heard brilliantly, so an extra better microphone would be a big help.

The size of a mobile, this handy little gadget will help anyone who is suffering from memory loss or if like me you are just overloaded with information at work. This can become your second brain!

Well I think that was my plan?…. I’ll just check the Dictaphone. (Sorry poor attempt at humour!)

I am a qualified Amateur Radio operator and I am slightly dyslexic. By law I have to fill a logbook out and record the details of other operators I have made contact with over the radio. I was constantly writing the call signs backwards. Call signs are comprised of numbers and letters that are unique to each operator. I hit on the bright idea of using a Dictaphone (small tape recorder) to tape the conversations. This enabled me to record the details correctly in my logbook. I also use it to tape the weekly Amateur news as this allows me to get on with other things on Sunday mornings. They give a lot of information that is easy to forget – e.g. e-mail ...
