I do a similar trick with a Sony IC Recorder (ICD-BP100). Gives several hours
in LP, over an hour in SP, and can record approximately 300
sequentially-numbered messages, or break 'em into three folders (say, one
folder for each roll of film, if you're not shooting more than three). Works
well. But there's no reason (other than fumbling with a pencil/pen and paper)
why taking old-fashioned notes on a pad can't do just as well -- I'm just too
lazy to scribble while I'm taking shots. ;-)
