That's also what the Edirol web site states.
However, on the Taperssection.com web site,
owners of the R-1 confirm that the machine
recognizes 4GB and 8GB Compactflash, too.=20

The 2GB limit refers to the largest file
size the R-1's software will support.
Digitizing at the R-1's rate of 24/44.1,
a 2GB file will capture about two hours
and 12 minutes' worth of two channel material.=20
At this point, the R-1 will save the file and
stop.  If you have a Compactflash card larger
than 2GB in the R-1, you can start recording
a second 2GB file.=20

Keep in mind that the R1 uses 2 AA batteries
for power.  Standard alkaline batteries record
between 2.5 and 3 hours.  NiMH rechargeables
last longer, based on their capacity.
