There is a new one just announced called the Olympus ls-100. I think you can only record 2 channels or tracks at a time but can mix 8. No idea how much speech feedback is given for the advanced functions. I hope it is more fully voicing than earlier versions but am not holding my breath. I appreciate the parts that do talk on my dm-520 but wish a few functions that are silent were voiced as well. I have no experience with other and newer models so don't know what the state is with the ls-100. I'm hoping it is wonderful!

Here are the details on this Olympus LS-100, although there is no mention here of speech output:

Olympus has announced the latest addition to its popular LS series of digital recorders with the addition of the LS-100 linear PCM audio recorder. Aimed at musicians and audio enthusiasts, it comes with a combination of professional interconnects, high quality sound recording, multitracking and extra features in a convenient pocket size.
Olympus LS-100 Audio Recorder
It’s an impressive little device with a matching list of features
- two internal 90-degree directional stereo condenser microphones with a frequency response of 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz and capable of capturing sound pressure levels up to 140 dB (which is about as loud as you’d really want to get). - uncompressed 24 bit/96 kHz Linear PCM digital recording saved to the internal 4GB memory or on SD (up to 2GB) / SDHC (up to 32GB) / SDXC (up to 64GB) cards.
- separate audio and system circuitry to keep the signal clean.
- low cut filter at either 100 Hz or 300 Hz to eliminate low frequency background noise. - two quarter-inch XLR / standard phone combo jacks, supporting phantom power at 48/24 volts to power high-quality external microphones.
- 8 track multitracking, with independent volume and pan control.
- tuner and metronome.
- Lissajous measurement which shows the phase difference betweenthe left and right mics.
- direct CD mastering.
- 2″ LCD screen and all-metal body.
“The Olympus LS series has been a favourite of musicians, artists and music lovers, and the LS-100 is an evolution in this series designed with the working musician, specifically, in mind,” said Amy Leslie, Sr.
Marketing&  Business Development Manager, Olympus Imaging America Inc.
“For songwriting sessions, band rehearsals, live performances, broadcasting, or really anything that requires the highest quality of audio recording, the LS-100 is an ideal, all-encompassing recording solution.” Nevermind all that, it just looks cool. Full details on the LS-100 are here and it will be available from all good stores in February 2012 for $399.

Cool! They are going totally pro. We'll just have to weight and see
if this thing will spit phantom power. IF it does, that's way cool.
A pro recorder that's totally accessable. Cool.

Olympus is releasing an 8 track digital recorder, at the beginning
of February 2012. The unit features voice guidance for all menus.
It includes two built in condenser microphones, as well as two
balanced combination XLR quarter inch inputs for high quality
microphones, or to connect a mixing board. The built in microphones
can handle sound pressure levels up to 140 decibals, so it will
record live bands with clarity and no distortion. The LS100 also
has an output to connect it to a CD drive, and it will enable you
to mix down its 8 tracks, to a 2 track stereo mix. It wil record in
24 bit 96K resolution. This is the preliminary information I
received from Olympus Japan. The suggested selling price will be $399.

If you are a member of any list serves enabling communication with
other blind musicians or blind engineers, please pass the word on,
about the new Olympus LS100. Keep in mind, I'm not an Olympus sales
representative, I have been in contact with Olympus product
engineers in order to develop this
8 track digital recorder, with speech guidance for blind users. If
you have any other questions, just keep in touch.

Colin Howard, living near Southampton in Southern England, wishes
you a very happy Christmas followed by a peaceful, prosperous 2012.
