Sony's $400 pro-audio recorder its cheapest yet

sony-pcm-m10-digital-audio-recorder.jpgAt $400, Sony's PCM-M10 pro-grade audio recorder is its cheapest. It records to 4GB of flash (expandable via MicroSD or Memstick), has a built-in speaker for playback, and is also Sony's first to spit out ready-to-upload MP3 files. Bundled is Sound Forge Studio Recorder Edition and a pair of AAs. [Sony PR]

Whoa, a Sony product that doesn't lock you in to their own flash memory solution! When did hell freeze over?

It happened when Sony's profits took a short-cut through the earth's crust.

I've used a few field recorders, and they all have terrible user interfaces. This one still looks pretty bad, but the use of real buttons with one purpose might be it's saving grace.
