I hesitated buying one of these things for a long time. My cellphone allows recording, so I tried that for awhile, I tried Jott.com which you call a number to dictate notes or reminders to yourself. They all kind of worked. Cindy bought this for her Nevada history class when she had to visit some museums around Las Vegas. She gave it to me when she was done with her museum notes.
This little thing is really cool. It does so much, you actually have to read the manual to get all of the features. I use it to record the mileage when I cross a state border (used for fuel taxes), and now I’m using it a lot to remind me of things while I’m driving, things I remember while I’m driving, but will forget when I stop five hours later. Things like what I need the next time I stop for a grocery run, things I would like to post about, websites or subjects I hear on the radio I want to look up later. It’s quick and easy and seems to do well on its AAA batteries. I only short quick notes and haven’t tried it for something long like a class lecture or something where it’s on and recording constantly.
This will also hook up to a computer and allow you to download your notes to your computer and keep or organize them. Theoretically, I could dictate something, download to my laptop, then upload it to Adventures in Trucking and you could listen to what I had to say. Except for the fact I would want to edit out all of the pauses and rearrange everything so it makes sense to everyone else, it could be used for that. Maybe someday.
Here are the features of this little thing:

Voice recorders like these are really amazing. i can imagine that if you are on the road alot you have many ideas to record. RCA makes good voice recorders.

I bought a DRV RP5022B just a few years back & I had My computer worked on & now I can not play My .voc files?

I don’t know if the 5022b is the same like mine. The 5120 has the program on the machine itself. Hook up it up with a micro usb and it will show up like a drive with folders. One of the folders is Setup, the program inside that folder is the program to install.
or
go here – http://support.rcaaudiovideo.com/product.aspx?product=23 that’s the page for the 5022 with a download link to Software Updates to download the player. Or you can look around the RCA site for the 5022b. This same program worked with my 5120, so it may be a generic player.
Hope that helps.

i know this is high hopes but is there a way to hook this up and make the computer use it as a microphone?
