I'd recommend the Olympus WS320.  It's the size of an iPod Nano (length of a
pack of chewing gum and twice the width roughly), has hundreds of hours of
battery life, a gig of memory and it's easy to transfer stuff to and from a
PC, it plugs straight into the USB port and is recognized by Windows as a
hard drive.  It's easy to record and navigate through files too.  It's about
a hundred and fifty quid but you can probably get it cheaper by looking on
Froogle or somewhere.  There reviews on it and tutorials on using it from a
blind person's perspective on blindcooltech.com.  Do a find on the webpage
for '320' and you should get three or four hits.  From memory the best one
in terms of an introduction to it and its functions is done by Mary somebody
and it might be in the archive (there's a link to the archives on the
homepage.

Subject: [access-uk] Digital Recording Equipment

 

Hi All

 

My husband is looking for a good quality digital recorder that will be
suitable for recording in a classroom situation.  Firstly, can anyone
recommend any good quality, accessible equipment for visually impaired
people?  Secondly, does anyone know of any exhibitions taking place where he
could look at digital recording equipment?

 

Thanks.
