Any modern Sony MP3 player probably won't have a voice recording feature. I have a Sony myself and before that I had another and my brother has one. So I've been around Sony players for a while. I only bought my one recently too, so that means I know whats on the market... and I never saw voice recording as a feature.
So I guess that cuts any Sony player out. Although, they are excellent players... I don't think you'd be disappointed with one if you bought it.
In regards to battery, I feel that what you could do to eliminate the need for a player with removable batteries, is to get into the habit of checking your battery often... Like every night. That way you can charge it overnight if needed and its good to go for the morning. Its pretty easy as most players have a pretty obvious battery indicator to go by. You'll probably keep checking it anyway!
If you did this, then you can almost buy any player out there as many have a voice recorder (not Sony or iPod as far as I know though). Many have very long battery lives anyway. Eg. My Sony is quoted to 33 hours I think and I believe it gets pretty close to reaching that figure.

i dont know of any mp3 player at the top of my head that has voice recording. very few, if any, actually offer this. I know some MD players do....
Get a Sony mp3 player or MD player. You wont regret it!

Thanks for the replies
just one question i have in regards to the sony players (was never going to buy an ipod in the first place even if it met every single one of my requirements...just dont like them), anyways the sony player, do you need to have a program installed on the PC to upload music?
I heard of some sony product for their players and i also heard it was very bad and bloated. Ideally i'd like to use windows explorer so i can just drag and drop the files i want. Could someone confirm that please?

The latest Sony players don't need any additional software, earlier ones needed SonicStage, which was a bugger to use and restricted what you could do with your music.
Check on the Sony website whether it's a drag and drop compatible model before buying

lol MD, MD, MD is all i'm hearing haha, probably a bit cheaper, does what i want it to do...size may not be as small as an mp3 player but if it does what is needed.
Well i'm going away on holiday in a couple of days for 10 days might see if i can pick up anything there.
If not i might try the sales after xmas see what happens. And if anyone sees or knows of anything in the mean time let us know thanks

an Md player does all you need and more...
all have a mic in socket... all have changeable batteries (not sure if they are AA though) but a standard charge will last you for a good 30 hours or so.. and a 1gb disc will get you a good few hours on it

afaik you just drag and drop now....
I know you used to have to use sonicstage and it was less than desirable in terms of use, but I've never used Hi-MD (as they don't make a Hi-MD separate for my Hi-Fi) I'll see what i can find out
