so far I have been recording with the LS-10 only using external mics
it is a great little unit -- a couple of things I wish it could do:
- mono recording
- 88.2kHz
- one button push for 'record into new file' while in record mode
   - example: while recording into LS001 you hit the 'next' button  
and immediately start recording into LS002
- have firmware updates available for OS X and Linux in addition to XP
but other than that I've been working with it a lot and really like  
it a lot
the fact that my mics, recorder and headphones all fit comfortably in  
my backpack makes traveling with it very easy
