Title: Very Disappointing from Sony
Product review: I am truly disappointed by the quality of this product, coming from Sony. Usually Sony has reasonably good products, but this one really is a piece of trash. It is advertised as a recorder for lectures and meetings, and as a college student, I thought this could help me take better notes. Wrong!!! This recorder can only take sound straight from your mouth into the mic at close range, but if you are interested in anything other than your own voice, you're out of luck with this model. I tried it out in one of my classes - a class held in a small room with no windows in the basement of a library (don't get quieter than that!!) and the recorder managed to garble every word of the professor, while picking up an amazing amount of roaring noise which is apparently either above or below the human hearing level, since it seems to not exist in the real world! Sony should be ashamed!! Please, if you intend to buy a recorder for lectures or meetings, don't buy this one!
