AI Thread Summary
When selecting a quality voice recorder for lectures, key considerations include recording distance and sound clarity. Users emphasize the importance of devices that can capture audio effectively from a distance, making them suitable for lecture environments. Many find that using a dedicated voice recorder yields better results than relying on smartphone apps or built-in features. The iFP-880 from iRiver is mentioned as a viable option, offering approximately 10 hours of recording time with 128MB of storage. Additionally, while some recorders do not support CD usage directly, files can often be transferred to a computer and burned onto a CD for larger storage needs. However, the challenge of reviewing lengthy recordings, such as 2-3 hours of lecture material, is noted as a drawback of using voice recorders.

For recording lectures, I use the voice recorder that came with my mp3 player. It has very good quality (but no cd as you can tell). But its also possible to make a cd out of the saved files.

The easy part is recording it, but then when you have to listen back to about 2 -3 hrs, it aint nice :)

iFP-880 from iriver. That 128MB gives approx. 10 hrs I believe.
 
has anyone tried this..

You can also leave your prediction here. Here are the predictions of 2024 that did not make it: Peter Shor, David Deutsch and all the rest of the quantum computing community (various sources) Pablo Jarrillo Herrero, Allan McDonald and Rafi Bistritzer for magic angle in twisted graphene (various sources) Christoph...

Thread 'My experience as a hostage'

I believe it was the summer of 2001 that I made a trip to Peru for my work. I was a private contractor doing automation engineering and programming for various companies, including Frito Lay. Frito had purchased a snack food plant near Lima, Peru, and sent me down to oversee the upgrades to the systems and the startup. Peru was still suffering the ills of a recent civil war and I knew it was dicey, but the money was too good to pass up. It was a long trip to Lima; about 14 hours of airtime...
