The most important feature was that the recorder must be compatible with Dragon Naturally Speaking. Fortunately, many of the Olympus recorders are not only compatible but excel in that area. The WS-331 has not yet been certified by Nuance (the maker of Dragon), but the lower models have been. Recognizing that the 331 is both a new model and a much improved version I knew that success of the lower models would be a good indicator. As an example, the WS-320 as well as the 300 offer excellent service for voice recognition.

I was looking for a recorder that could play mp3s and had a feature that allowed me to loop a segment of a track.This player has a ton of nice features and the recording comes out very clear.

I spent about 10 hours researching before I finally selected this product. It was the best choice for what I wanted: good digital voice recorder, good mp3 player, and good flash drive.
After spending a few hours with it, I am very impressed. It's tiny, very well designed, and an overall great product.

Because of its miniature format, its ease of uploading onto computers or into portable memory, this is ideal for use with
children's speech, family memoirs, or interviews. The quality of the voice is excellent.

I purchased two of these recorders, one for myself, the other a gift. I have been amazed at the versatility, sound quality, and ease of use. I have used it to record person to person conversations, as well as conference calls, all with minimal effort, and excellent sound quality.

I work as a Court Reporter and use this handy little recorder as a backup. It is especially handy when I have to move to chambers. I move my main unit and then throw this on the desk as a backup. It is compatible with my transcription software and I love it.

You need to try Silica Gel Packets. There was a good article on associatedcontent.com that explains how to dry an iPod, MP3 player, cell phones, or any electronics.
You need to place your device in a zip lock bag with Silica Gel Packets. Silica Gel will remove all the moisture from the phone and its components, something air drying will not do!
Just Google "Silica Gel Packets" and you will find several companies selling these products. There is also a web site called: http://www.SilicaGelPackets.co.uk that has them.
when my electronic devics get wet i put them in rice it soaks up the moisture works some times
Putting it in a very dry place might help. But chances are it’s dead.
