There's a machine that records to a flash card they use at the BBC made by 
Narva or someone?  Its a similar name but I can't remember it.  Comes in two 
sizes one fairly big one that you can hang over your shoulder strap weighing 
in at about fifteen hundred quid and a smaller handheld one that costs about 
six hundred.  Can't remember sizes or much more about the spec but its top 
quality stuff maybe someone else remembers the correct name of the make.
