I have used Olympus products for years in my transcription service business. They have been very reliable and user friendly. I am disappointed as they keep discontinuing machines and having new models and with this one specifically they changed the software entirely and got rid of some features that the person using the machine now has to do in a manual fashion. The 2300 machine's program would allow the program to be set to automatically upload the recorded files and also automatically delete them from the handheld unit. Both of these features are not available on this new software. I wonder if Olympus is trying to promote their more expensive units now listed under "professional dictation" (several hundred dollars more expensive) in order to have these features as well as promoting voice recognition. In the face of obsolescence this will soon not be an issue.
I've been using the olympus recorders for the better part of a decade now it's always in my pocket, it's a work horse I use it every bit of 10 times a day. My only complaint is that there is no auto advance to the next message it requires you to manually forward to the next message, you also have to do the same thing when recording a new message, or it will continue recording under the same record.
