A Higher value makes the sound quality better, but the size of the recordeddata file will be bigger thus shortening the total Check-Out time available onyour CLIÉ handheld.
Likewise, a lower value means lower sound quality, but lengthens the totalCheck-Out time available on your CLIÉ handheld.
When you use an optional 128 MB MG Memory Stick media, you can record forapproximately the following length of time:• When you record at 132 kbps: approx. 120 min.
• When you record at 105 kbps: approx. 160 min.
• When you record at 66 kbps: approx. 240 min.
