Review on 🎙️ OLYMPUS VoiceTrek VN-8100PC ICRecorder Enhanced for SEO by Jason Rawls

This little digital recorder definitely works. As for quality issues, I haven't found any real cons yet - it's always good to remember that you get *a lot* of performance for a 2GB device. I've had mine for a little over a month - with a case for about $62, now they seem to be selling for $69 and my seller has them listed for $89 now. (?). A NOTICE. I just checked on March 11th, 2012 and the price has dropped back down to around $66(?)!

But the tech is there so come on Olympus give it to us! Comes with a lanyard too :) Those are secondary reasons I only got 4 stars otherwise it's small, records well, durable, has many other flexible options, koto These are found on some high-end recorders so don't skip these for minor issues. just know. and take great shots! I usually use SP/.wma and No Rec Scene mode files so I get 260+ hours with no problem. Recording time, which is great quality for my needs and certainly better than lugging around (and mangling) tons of 90 minutes. ribbons. (This is a "medium" quality setting; you can more than double the available time by changing the settings.)
