What do you think of this one? Saw it in a magazine, it looks awesome! But is it 430 dollars worth?

I would have concerns about...

Mic quality:
I have never heard of a proffessional-standard internal mic. Can it really be good?

FX:
FX shouldn't be it's best feature.
My experience tells me that onboard 'extra' FX can be pretty average.
You can get all the VST FX you want anyway.

Storage:
Comes with just 64MB storage?!
That will get you 5 mins of recording. A nice 2GB card will set you back another $50.

Pick up a quality mic for $100
Do a little research and find out which portable MiniDisc recorder has a good reputation for its recording and buy one on Ebay.

I'm not a fan of all-in-one solutions.

How can you compare a shitty MD player to a 24 bit recorder
