5 out of 5 stars Tiny device packed with recording power and usability   September 5, 2008
 0 out of 1 found this review helpful

I used to use the older OLYMPUS WS-300M until I gave that away to a pastor who wanted to use it to record a portion of the Bible in Navajo. He tried it, loved it, so I just gave it to him.

And then I bought this newer model. I didn't think it could get any better, but it did. The build seems a lot more durable (the USB part doesn't fall apart as easily) and I like the way the battery chamber is built now (the opening is along the length of the battery now).

It can be used as an MP3 player, a USB 2.0 plug n play flashdrive, and a crisp audio recorder. I've used it for all those functions. What more could I ask for? Highly recommended.



5 out of 5 stars Great compact voice recorder   September 5, 2008
I purchased the Olympus WS-311M to replay a digital RCA voice recorded purchased from Wal-Mart. I am a photo-journalist, so I need something dependable, which was NOT the RCA voice recorder. Though the RCA recorder had lots of features, they were not as easy to use as the Olympus recorder. And the storage capacity of the Olympus is great! I have downloaded lots of MP3 files and use it like an iPod. It's a breeze to download recorded messages into my laptop with the handy USB plug that is built in to the voice recorder (no wires to mess with!). I have been extremely pleased with this recorder. It's lightweight and fits conveniently into any pocket. Battery life has been long. I would highly recommend the Olympus WS-311M to anyone looking for a small, quality voice recorder/MP3 player.


4 out of 5 stars Good Product.   September 2, 2008

I brought the WS-311M Digital voice recorder for both work and school. For work, I travel a lot and work in conditions that it would be better to record my notes instead written them down on a piece of paper. For school, I use it for notes while reading my text book and also for lectures by the instructors.

I like my WS-311M Digital voice recorder because It gives me the best of both worlds: It is a voice recorder and an MP3 player. I like both functions because I use the recorder to take notes and the MP3 player I am able to entertain myself. The MP3 player comes in handy because I am going to school and some of the lectures have been pre-recorded as MP3s.

The recorder is compact and does not require an interface cable, which is a plus for being a road warrior like me. The USB interface is built into the device.

I really like the stereo capabilities of the sound. Most recorders do only record in mono and do not generate a dynamic sound during playback; however, the Olympus WS-311M can record and play in stereo.

It works pefectly. Any trouble in connecting with computer, like pendrive.
Sound quality good enough for typical use. Small, nice, light and convenient.

WOW!
I previously purchased a sony, and it's performace pales compared to this divice. I'm not a gadet geek, and I just took it out of the package, put the battery in, looked at the buttons and started using it with only a few peaks at the inst. book. Ease of use, very compact, and super clarity with the headset on offered me exactly what i needed in a device of this $ range and features. Looking forward to downloading and burning the recorded info onto disk.

Also a plug for Amazon. I was refferred by a friend and glad he did; easy to follow online prompts with good comparatives of similar products with a wide variety of $ ranges and features. Prompt delivery.

thanks Amazon for the excellant service and wide product line.
As Arnold would conclude: "I'll BE BACK"
