Olympus VN-960PC Digital Voice Recorder

Date of Review:  Dec 9, 2005
The Bottom Line: Oh, go on...buy one, you KNOW you want to :)
Review: I am an old school kind of guy. Never had any use for these "new fangled" digital voice recorders. The old micro cassette that I carry in my briefcase has served me long and well. That is until I was convinced by a buddy of mine to give the Olympus...

Lightweight, works great

Date of Review:  Oct 25, 2006
The Bottom Line: Save yourself some money and buy this one. You're not going to do any better with something more expensive.
Review: As a full-time journalist and admittedly sloppy and slowhand (not to be confused with shorthand) note taker, I have always been in need of a reliable recorder. Like the caveman that I am, I for years used mini-cassettes, but that technology failed...

The Bottom Line: At this price, it cannot be beat! Perfect for students!
Review: This is GREAT. I really am impressed with this device and happy I bought it over other models. It is really refreshing, after coming across so many crappy items out there, to find something of quality for a good price.

Good Buy --Olympus 960PC Digital Voice Recorder

Date of Review:  Jan 20, 2008
The Bottom Line: This item is given a buy recommendation. Overall it is an excellent choice for the price. There were no limitations that it had that I could not get around.
Review: This digital voice recorder is an excellent tool that I use when I want to ensure that my words versus another had to be confirmed/verified. I used it in a legal matter where it confirmed that the person had lied. He was unaware that he was being...

My VN-960PC cannot record 16 hours continuously manufacturers defect?

Date of Review:  Apr 4, 2007
The Bottom Line: Excellent product for singers, musicians, reporters, professional people for meetings and students.

Great Recorder - Poor Transfer Software

Date of Review:  Aug 22, 2006
Review: This is an excellent high quality recorder. It has great sound quality and works with ease. The one problem is the software which makes transfer from the recorder to the computer a task. It was slow, very slow. The Olympus WS200S, on the other hand,...

Horrible Software

Date of Review:  Jun 3, 2006
Review: The voice recorder itself is fine, but the software is rather useless. While I could get the software installed on my Windows XP Pro system, when I was reading the manual to learn how to use it, I ran across this little nugget:
