Olympus provides low-cost digital storage for voice recording in the DW-90. Built-in 8 MB flash memory provides ample space for short lectures and interviews, and three different recording choices--High Quality, Standard Play, and Long play--let you decide whether quality or quantity is most important for a given application.

The DW-90's battery life covers 19 hours of recording (11 for playback) on two AAA batteries. It's just over 3 inches long and 1.8 inches wide, so you can take it almost anywhere. The LCD provides important details such as remaining recording time, the date, and the time, as well as visual confirmation of voice activation mode, recording mode (HQ/SP/LP), and battery status.

The DW-90 also provides three folders to manage your files, each capable of storing up to 100 messages. A built-in unidirectional/telescoping microphone helps reduce background noise for clearer recordings, and a Microphone Sensitivity Selector lets you adjust the voice activation threshold for hands-free recording.

The DW-90 comes with a microphone stand, USB cable for quick copying of your files to your hard drive, hand strap for convenient carrying, earphones so you can listen to your recordings on the road, and Olympus's Digital Wave Player software.
