Voice Recorders

Though the Panasonic that I use...quite often...is no longer available, I suggest the Panasonic Digital Voice Recorder Model #: PAN RRUS430. You can get it at Circuit City for $50. It is comparable to the one I am using. What I like about it is that you can set up folders which can be used for "To-do Lists", "Story Ideas", "Working Titles", etc. AND what I REALLY like is that it comes with software which allows you to download all of your folders/notes onto the computer via USB for saving to the hard drive or CD. Others probably do the same thing but at the time I purchased mine, Panasonic was the only brand that had that particular feature.

The next meeting of the Abington Writer's Group is this Monday, November 12 at 7 p.m. at Abington Library. See you there.
