A good buy June 30, 2008
Records for about 16 hours on a single AAA battery, simple to use, intuitive interface. Works just like a flash drive to transfer files to and from a PC, just plug it into a USB port. Sound quality and sensitivity are very good, but even better (louder and clearer) with the ME-15 microphone. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is that the buttons aren't recessed, so it's possible to turn it on or off accidentally.
 I think I'm going to love this gadget June 15, 2008
I just bought the WS-110 yesterday, and I'm happy with what I see so far. The sound is good, and I love how small, thin, and light it is. It's barely there. It's too early to know how the batteries will hold up. It still shows a full charge after an hour of messing with it. While it's not a big deal, I agree with previous comments that it shouldn't require a manual to know how to power it off. Also, I had a hard time getting it apart the first few times. It's easier now, either because it needed a little breaking in, or I'm getting better at it. The fact that it plugs right into the USB without a cable was what really sold me. No software required with Windows XP. Excellent.
Easy to use and great quality June 14, 2008
I purchased two units six months ago and have sense purchased ten more recorders for use in my business. Advantages: Easy to use,great quality & long recording times. Even better when paired with the ME-15 external microphone. Only wish it had a seperate On/Off switch instead of having to use the Hold slide switch.

I am a hypnotherapist and life coach and bought this recorder to be able to do personalized recording for clients in my office. I then move them to the computer and edit, clean up, and finalize them in an audio studio software. This recorder has been a great addition to my office! Having the recordings in WMA format is a huge help to be able to edit them with software. So is the USB connection to move files to the computer. The recorder is simple to operate, and the sound quality is good, with a decent microphone. I bought the plug in one that sits on the unit - sound quality was not the level of voice quality needed for my use, but it would work well for classroom/meeting recordings. The little microphone definitely picked up sounds from almost any where in the room. I had an existing lapel microphone that plugged in and is working great with the sound quality I need. I would recommend this digital recorder. Olympus WS-110 - Digital voice recorder - flash 256 MB - WMA

I need a digital recorder for work, and I'm happy with my Olympus recorder, mostly because it is easy to use. The recorder works similar to a cell phone. Even the buttons on the front of the recorder are reminiscent to a cell phone. It's smaller and lighter than a cell. I can drop it in my purse and go. Previously, I owned a Sony recorder. I tossed out the directions and spent two years fidgeting with the thing, trying to remember how it worked, until I gave up and went with Olympus. I like how I can download files into my computer by removing the bottom half of the recorder. I have a Mac at work and it downloads the voice recordings as Wave files. It has the memory to record for 17 hours. However, it's annoying that I haven't yet figured out (nor do I know if there's an ability on the recorder) to block out certain background sounds. For instance, if you're in a loud auditorium and someone next to you coughs, the recorder will pick up that and it will be louder than the speaker on the stage. Having used recorders for years, I know that old-fashioned tape recorders can block background sounds. I don't know if the technology has been adapted digitally.
