This sounds great. Please find out what you can about the quality of the
preamps, and also the average run time for a set of batteries.

Wow wow wow.

A cheaper alternative to the 744T ~ a friend who saw it yesterday at AES
(I'm going to try to go today) said it was supposed to list at $1800:

More details:

Hot on the heels of their 2 channel portable recorder comes a four channel
40 GB HD recorder with phantom-powered XLR for four channels. Records up
to 24/96. Runs off 8x AAs. Limiter if you want it. USB2 for file transfer.
CF slot to offload recordings to. Onboard editing capabilities, electret
mics (2), and speakers for in-field editing. Pre-record buffer.

Digital inputs too if the onboard pres turn out to be not the best.

It looks about as big as a hardback book. Maybe bulkier than the 722/744.
But not nearly as big as say a Deva etc.

More if I get to see one!
