This new gadget from Yamaha is designed primarily for recording audio. Unfortunately, it still cannot replace a full-fledged studio, but it is difficult to be called a usual voice recorder.

Pocketrak 2G with its modest size (34,2 mm x 119,5 mm x 13mm) and weight (49 grams) is very functional.
Stylish recorder is equipped with two gigabytes of internal memory and can record audio in PCM format and MP3, has a built-in speaker and highly sensitive microphones. This is quite sufficient for recording from 3 (best quality) up to 284 (lowest quality) hours. At the same time it works only on one AAA battery. It is enough to record / playback audio from 6 up to 25 hours, depending on the use of dynamics and sound quality.
Variable speed of playback and the ability to connect to a PC via a standard USB connector only adds convenience to this gadget.
The price of this gadget is $349.95.
