I bought a Zoom H2 a few weeks back. The seller threw in a 2GB memory card on the deal.
For $200 it is really a great little recorder.
It is very easy to use and the internal mics work very well. One thing that I have observed is that placement is very important. It will even pick up heating and air units when they are on. I even picked up the noise from a spotlight cooling fan one night. So you have to watch out where you put it when recording.
I have been very happy with my H2. Battery life is fine (I use rechargable batteries). And it was very easy to hook up to my PC (USB) to move my files.
I was afraid that I would have to shell out $400+ to get a decent recording device. But the H2 does a great job at half the price.
