I don't know about that one but I do know about the PCMD50, its been reviewed on Blind Cool Tech as well so research that one, unfortunately the PCMD50 is not available in Australia otherwise I would have purchased one without fail. On 07/12/2010, at 8:44 AM, Matthew Chao wrote: Hi, Folks!

The problem with the Sony recorders, or, should I more correctly say, the D50, is it uses that old Sony Memory Stick technology, which is fine if you have an external USB memorystick reader. On Tue, 7 Dec 2010 09:07:44 +1100, you wrote: I don't know about that one but I do know about the PCMD50,

Yes it is but really anyone who compares any of the Olympus recorders to the Sony PCMD50 is comparing Apples to oranges, similarly comparing Zooms to Olympus, Zooms and Sony PCMD50 machines are professional high end recorders whereas the Olympus are not. On 7/12/2010 11:35 AM, tim cumings
