Panasonic RR-US351 Digital Recorder and Voice Editor

I am very disappointed with this product. I bought it for the voice recognition feature and software. I find it will only handle voice recognition in HQ mode which only gives 33 minutes of recording time. Nowhere does it tell me this in any of the promotional material or on the package. I had to use it to find this out and finally found a mention of this limitation deep in the software manual. 33 minutes isn't nearly enough recording time. I returned it for a refund.

True, you have to use the HQ (33 minute) mode for VR, but Standard Play (65 minutes) is great for most of my purposes. I used the RR-US351 to record my Dad's stories shortly before he passed away, then transfered to PC & shared with his grandchildren. Later, I used it with the self-timer mode to help identify a Nile monitor lizard that was terrifying a neighbor.

Note that the included software converts only to bulky WAV, so if you want any kind of compression you'll some other audio processing software. LP mode (210 minutes) does not compress well.
