You could record it to a PC, save it as an MP3 file, then load it to Apple's new ipodshuffle and truly join the 21st century! http://www.apple.com/uk/ipodshuffle/ They are only £69, weigh 22 grams and are hyper trendy.

We are currently trying to bring our small establishment into something approaching the 21st Century and I am interested in purchasing a number of small tape recorders to lend - against a deposit - to visitors. I have used one of these myself in another place and found it an excellent idea quite apart from the obvious advantage to anyone with poor eyesight. Could anyone let me know of a suitable source of such devices, approximate costs and any other appropriate advice including the sort of specification to look for. Robustness springs to mind as an important quality...... I look forward to the usual plethora of replies! Please don't hold back!
