Editorial Reviews:

The pocket-sized Olympus VN-4100 digital voice recorder is sleek in style and boasts over 144 hours of continuous recording capability. The easy-to-use thumb pad allows for quick and convenient navigation of functions like file management, choosing recording modes, and more while the included timer recoding and voice activation modes provide added versatility. Depending on the quality of the desired recording, the VN-4100 is able to record in four recording modes to meet your specific needs: XHQ for extra high quality, HQ for high-quality, and SP and LP modes for extended recording. Right above the easy-to-use thumb pad, users will find a large LCD screen for easy, quick viewing of file locations, recording status, and battery life. The thumb pad also allows you to control the slow and fast playback modes, allowing you to listen to audio playback at 25-percent slower or 50-percent faster than real time. The unit's storage capacity is divided into four folders, and each folder can store up to 100 files. Easy file management functions allow you to erase single files, multiple files, as well as transfer files between folders. An on-board voice activation feature extends recording time by recording only when the microphone senses sound while the easy-to-use index marks let you specify a particular point in a recording or playback for easy reference. Use the timer recording option to set a start and end time for a particular recording. Measuring 4.0 x 1.5 x 0.8 inches, the VN-4100 weighs only 2.2 ounces.

What's in the Box
VN-4100 Digital Voice Recorder, two AAA alkaline batteries, and instruction manual.

Summary: Olympus VN4100
Comment: Handy little recorder. Good for loading into a laptop where you can do the Line-In easier. It does do a decent recording.

Summary: Fine Digital Voice Recorder for interviews
Comment: After some research and some hands on shopping, I chose the Olympus VN4100. Simple controls for interview work and it does a good job in small group meetings (with a noise-cancel mike). Quality is the usual excellent type from Olympus. Limited capabilities for serious transcribing if you need a lot of go-back, but for a budget item, this is nice equipment.

Comment: Olympus VN4100 Digital Voice Recorder.
Although we have only had this product a short time, it seems to work very well. The VN4100 DVR has more clarity and volume to it than we thought it would have. This recorder is much smaller than thought, and makes it
more handy for our use! Olympus VN4100 Digital Voice Recorder

Summary: Highly recommended!
Comment: I highly recommend this digital recorder for everyone! I've had it for about 3 months & it's exceeded my expectations by far. VERY user friendly with easy controls, fits in my pocket better than my cell phone, durable, and has a lot of memory to hold lots of recordings! It's a must for everyone...professionals, students,& great to keep with you at all times for recording things to do, reminders, etc.

Summary: Worked Great, Died in 5 Months
Comment: I liked this product while it lasted. I used it as a backup to take notes in conferences and training sessions. I am a technical writer and it was an invaluable aid in cross-checking spoken information.

However, it conked out in only 5 months. For no good reason as I treated it decently. It lived in a special pocket in my handbag with my mobile phone and was never dropped or anything. I changed the battery and found that the unit was no longer responding to any button and could not be accessed, even though the battery was full and correctly entered. All I have is a message saying ERR on the screen and many hours of precious information LOST.

So my appreciation is mitigated. A good product but 5 months is too short a life.
