This will do 16/44.1 pcm as well as mp3, records 8 hours on a AAA battery, and has a jack for an external mic. 8GB memory. Looks to be under 2 oz. and 4.7 inches long.

Mp3 recording limited to 128kbps. Still, nice form factor.

Who cares, you can record in WAV.

BUT, the frequency responce is only 40-20. Not bad, but not up to par...

Just for the record, Sanyo also had a precursor launched March 2007 with only 2GB, but otherwise similar specs:

I just realized that the 2GB version is the same recorder that was later licensed as Yamaha Pocketrak 2G outside Japan:
