Rating  - I loved it and then it died!
I had the same experience as a previous reviewer - it worked great and did everything I wanted for almost two years, and then would no longer record. It saved my previous recordings, but I cannot get it to record anymore. I, too, will buy another brand.
Rating - Stopped working
It worked great for a few months then experienced the same problem others have reported. It hangs once you press the record button and you must remove the batteries to recover. Would not buy an Olympus product ever again.
Rating - Excellent recorder ... that broke after 18 months
I loved this little recorder. It did everything that I wanted it to do, and then some. It was well-designed, easy to use, had good voice quality, and (for me) generous capacity. But note how I'm writing my review in the past tense. A few days ago, my unit stopped working properly. It'll play back just fine (thank heavens for that, at least) but it freezes up and refuses to respond to button presses when I try to record anything. You have to take the batteries out and put them back in again, but then you simply end up back where you started. You still can't record. I did a "full reset" and it didn't help. I just called Olympus support, hoping there was either something else I could do to fix the unit ... or perhaps a sympathetic agent who'd replace an out-of-warranty unit that hasn't performed to a reasonable expectation. No such luck. So I got from July 2006 to January 2008 out of this thing ... 18 months of use. Sending the thing in for repair would be "$30-$40." Cost to replace it: $40. Olympus, I expect better, especially since I'm apparently not the only one to have this happen. I don't support companies that make devices that only work a year and a half. I'm going to replace this defective unit with another brand.
