Gianni, thanks for the correction.

Firmware update 1.3.3 added an auto-split capability to the original
Microtrack 2496.  But there is approximately a 5 second delay in
starting the second file.  That is, 5 seconds of sound is not recorded
during the process of closing the first file and starting the second.

The new Microtrack II reportedly has the ability to automatically
start a new file without losing any sound.  This is termed a "seamless
file split."

The Microtrack II's ability to seamlessly auto-split at 2GB will allow
continuous recording at highest resolution (24/96) for up to 4 hours
on an 8GB Compactflash card. The internal battery probably won't last
more than 4 hours.
