Beware - software is not compatible with Windwos Vista 64 bit!
I bought this voice recorder, but nowhere did it specify that the software does not work with Windows Vista 64 bit. This is a problem across the board with voice recorders, a software problem which happens with $300 recorders just like $50 ones, and with other brands as well. This of course disables a very important feature of the recorder... Luckily, I have two computers, one of which has a 32 bit Vista version. So I am using the older computer for right now to download the files.
Another big issue is the battery life - it is very limited, so hopefully you can afford a lot of batteries. I think the battery runs out after about 7-10 hours of recording.
On the bright side, the recorder and the software work very well, and you will get good recordings that are easy to listen to. The software really makes it the whole process much, much easier.
If you have 32 bit Vista, I would recommend getting this device. If not, maybe wait until the software is compatible with 64 bit version.

review of Sony digital recorder
The recorder easily fits in my pocket, and is very easy to use.
I definitely recommend this recorder, although I wish it was a color other than silver.

Not Compatible With Vista 64 Bit
Please note, while the recorder appears to work wonderfully by itself, it is not compatible with the 64 bit version of Windows Vista so you are not able to load the files onto your computer at all. There is no available driver from Sony. Great product, but this compatibility flaw should be listed on the box (and it is not). I noticed the issue when trying to upload for the first time and both the software and drivers are not compatible. The only indication that it doesn't work with 64-bit versions is listed in the manual after a tiny asterisk.

How to turn it off. Use the "Hold" switch.
This is a good little recorder for the price. Does what it's intended to do. The "Hold" switch is the ON/OFF for this recorder.

Sony ICDP 620 Digital Voice Recorder
This is the first device of this type I've owned, and I've had it for about a month now. I'm very pleased with it and find it pretty easy to use. The size is perfect and I can easily carry it in my shirt pocket, or toss it in my briefcase. I often think about things while I'm driving, and would often forget them by the time I get to my destination. Using the recorder, I simply dictate reminders or ideas to myself and jot them down later. The sound quality is great, both in "high" and "low" sensitivity mode. And the software allows you to transfer messages to your computer, which then allows you to email them to people. 99 hours of recording time is amazing.
