Re: [ARSCLIST] Seen at AES NYC
External mic inputs I can see, but 48 volts phantom probably isn't
realistic due to the fancy switching power supply it would require.
AA batteries only generate 1.5 volts each- and not at very high an
amperage.

Now this is starting to get exciting. While not perfect, I've usually
been happy with the sound of Sony products.
I found, "<http://www.sony.com>Sony showed its new PCM-D1 portable
field recorder. Yow! About $2k, including 4-gig Flash memory off
rechargeable or AA batteries. Linear PCM recording or compressed audio
files."

Those LOOK (but that's part of the marketing, I guess) like serious
condenser mic capsules. Look similar to (but not identical to) AKG
C451 capsules.
It's not clear if the 4GB is built in or removable.
Hopefully this also has external mic inputs AND 48V phantom power.
