Dear Caroline,
I received an Olympus Digital Voice Recorder VN-480PC for Christmas some
years back and it's great! I seem to remember that it came with a lapel
microphone. Don't no the price or availability where you are, though.
Thought it may be worth a shot. You may also want to look for other models.
Best of luck,
Christina
