The Olympus DR-2300 is a professional-grade USB-based digital recorder that can be used for dictation or with voice recognition software. Compatible with Windows XP SP3 (and newer) and the Mac OS platform, the DR-2300 incorporates a low-noise directional microphone to sieve out unwanted background noises for an ultra-clear recording. More importantly, it comes with the ability to playback recordings via an integrated speaker without the need for specialty drivers. Finally, a slide switch, five programmable buttons and a built-in track ball allow for single-handed operation. The DR-2300 supports an optional barcode scanner for integration with existing workflow management tools. Product page
