Not Compatible With Vista 64 Bit
Please note, while the recorder appears to work wonderfully by itself, it is not compatible with the 64 bit version of Windows Vista so you are not able to load the files onto your computer at all. There is no available driver from Sony. Great product, but this compatibility flaw should be listed on the box (and it is not). I noticed the issue when trying to upload for the first time and both the software and drivers are not compatible. The only indication that it doesn't work with 64-bit versions is listed in the manual after a tiny asterisk.

How to turn it off. Use the "Hold" switch.
This is a good little recorder for the price. Does what it's intended to do. The "Hold" switch is the ON/OFF for this recorder.

Sony ICDP 620 Digital Voice Recorder
This is the first device of this type I've owned, and I've had it for about a month now. I'm very pleased with it and find it pretty easy to use. The size is perfect and I can easily carry it in my shirt pocket, or toss it in my briefcase. I often think about things while I'm driving, and would often forget them by the time I get to my destination. Using the recorder, I simply dictate reminders or ideas to myself and jot them down later. The sound quality is great, both in "high" and "low" sensitivity mode. And the software allows you to transfer messages to your computer, which then allows you to email them to people. 99 hours of recording time is amazing.

Excellent Value
I have had this unit for about 2 months and use it to record committee type meetings plus some phone calls. The microphone pick up and quality is superb. It has a low and high sensitivity settings that are suitable for telephone uses (low) and small conference group sessions (high).
It is quite easy to alter programming, control buttons for record or playback. The software program is well thought out, simple to use, flexible, and downloads recordings effortlessly. The only thing it will not do for me is edit out recorded dead time, but I have other programs that can do that if really needed. The software will also cut a CD or convert to MP3.
All in all a very nice package. If only they could make it less expensive...

Disappointed in sound quality and ease of use
I bought the Sony ICD-P620 to use for voice memos, etc. The sound quality is not very good, even though I have tried holding the recorder at various distances. When playing back messages, everything is usually understandable, but the sound is garbled and irritating to listen to. In addition, the unit is not user-friendly in my opinion. I wanted something simple and easy to use, with decent sound quality. This recorder does not meet my needs.
