I used mine heavily for probably 5 years or so before having to replace it--pretty good return on investment. Very clean sound, and much easier and more accurate than taking notes by hand. I'm a freelance writer/editor, and the combo of my Olympus DS-2 digital recorder and the TP-7 recording device is absolutely essential to my business. You just plug one end in the recorder, slip the rubber bud in your ear, and it records both sides of the conversation. I like the fact that I can use it with any cell phone or land line.Be forewarned that the wire is somewhat delicate and therefore should be treated with care.
It works using a bluetooth device, although that's not a perfect combination.I still would prefer to record directly onto the Blackberry, but this is the next best thing.

I'm a writer and do a lot of phone interviews and I've tried just about every device on the market, some simple, some more expensive and complex. For $10 this is probably the best and simplest solution around. So far that thin wire that connects the two ends is holding up, but I plan to order a second unit as a backup just in case--and again, at $10, that's such a tiny investment, who cares.
It's too costly. Olympus TP-7 Telephone Recording Device You'll never miss any details of the conversations you may have,especially if what you're talking about is important or very long and important it's handy as h&%#.I dont leave what I'm listening to to chance. GET IT.
