Is there ever any end to equipment problems? My Sony WM-D6, not long back
from repair, is showing signs of dying again, and you can't get them for
love or money anymore. I've gone through four Marantz analog tape machines
in the past 15 years, a couple of them repaired twice, and won't touch
another. So I'm ready to try digital recording. I'm looking at the Marantz
PMD660 and the Edirol R1. I know there have been some comments concerning
these posted previously, but I'd like to hear from anyone actually using
them in the field, especially the topics, about how they hold up and how
they are to use.

I record frogs in tropical rainforest and need something robust yet
lightweight, but as a non-professional I have little money to spend.

Thanks in advance.
