i can't compare it to the sony-made version, but i can comment on the 
rycote.  while it's build quality and effectiveness are what you would 
expect from rycote (ie, very good), it's fit on the machine leaves a lot 
to be desired.  it doesn't fit at all snuggly on the recorder, and falls 
off easily.  this is probably due to the unusual mic placement on the 
m10 (ie, the mics inbuilt in to the sides of the recorder itself) and a 
compromise to fit the windscreen without obscuring the display.  but for 
the price i would have thought they could do a better job at finding a 
suitable solution.

best,
patrick
