Furthermore, your files will be transferred to your PC automatically.
Slide Switch Operation	DSS Pro File Format	USB Dock & Recharge

With the professional slide switch, you don't have to change your working habits and can enhance your dictation workflow. Philips 9500 offers a fast response and is designed for single-handed operation.	The .dss file format is the international standard for professional speech processing. Offering outstanding audio quality for recorded voice, .dss files allow a high compression rate and reduce file size, network traffic, and required storage capacity. The format also allows additional information, such as client/patient name or document type, to be stored in the file header, further facilitating file organization.	The Philips Pocket Memo digital recorder can be fast charged through the USB connection to your PC. This gives you the assurance that your recorder will always be ready to work when you are. Furthermore, your files will be transferred to our PC automatically.
