Look what seems to have appeared on the Nagra site:
http://nagraaudio.com/pro/pages/products_nagra_PICO.php
Small recorder 2ch- similar specs to Sony PCM-M10 and silly long (40hr) battery life. 3V pip on mic in (1/8" minijack) No external card options but 4GB internal memory.
Don't know the price- would expect it to be more than similar prducts though, but would expect better quality. Doesn't look as rugged as the Nagra SD
Looks like it is 16 bit, 48 kHz only.

Doubt you'll get more than 96dB dynamic range (16bit) off other recorders in that price range anyway. Nagra (Pico and SD) 90dB EIN, PCM-M10 -93dB EIN: http://taperssection.com/index.php?topic=140954.0
The Nagra Lino looks more interesting :)

^^ Looks interesting, but I couldn't finding any online retailers I wonder what they sell for??
yea i like the looks of the lino
Cool - the lino is a copy of the R-09. How quaint.
to be competitive w the m10, the lino better be pretty cheap imo!

best post in this thread so far.
The Lino has the same dynamic range spec as well.

Looks like a down-rated Nagra SD with fixed mics.
Lino makes me think of flooring...
The Pico is £189 +VAT in the UK - there is no Lino price yet.
The Lino looks like it has some potential if the price is right. Found this on their website......http://www.nagraaudio.com/pro/doc_en/Leaflet_LINO.pdf (http://www.nagraaudio.com/pro/doc_en/Leaflet_LINO.pdf)
Big Problem of the Lino: no big difference to the m-10 and i don't see anything special (besides Nagra printed on it) like a really good Mic preamp or how much PIP it provides.
and battery runtime on the M10 much longer.
The PICO, £189 + vat in the UK??!!
"Hello Richmond Film Services...?!"
that's amazing- got to be the cheapest bit of Nagra gear ever made! I think I'll go for that actually; I've been thinking about a smaller carry EVERYWHERE stand-in machine. Shame about the 16bit though.
It'd be nice to get a cost on the LINO...

UK price of the Lino - £295 excluding 20% VAT.
