Since we're talking about announced products that lack corporeal
form, check out Core Audio's update on their portable
digital recorder project:
http://www.core-sound.com/HighResRecorderNews.html
The system has three components:
--a portable two channel mic preamp and 24/96 A/D converter
--a digital input card for PCs or Pocket PC PDAs (!)
that accepts S/PDIF optical and coax signals up to
192,000 samples/second
--software for the PC or PDA
Cost for all three is supposed to be less than $1,000.
Whether this turns out to be a substitute for a Nagra V
remains to be seen...
The announcement says that the digital input card is now
available in limited quantities (read: beta test form),
with production to begin this summer.
