Olympus DS-4000 - Digital voice recorder - flash 32 MB Review

This is a good product and works effectively, BUT whatever you do, do NOT drop it.The battery compartment is on the corner of the bottom of the recorder.The door to this compartment is plastic and VERY FRAGILE!!!The battery is spring loaded and is kept in the compartment by the plastic door.A very tiny piece of the plastic door broke off my recorder when it was dropped and now the door won't close all the way.Because the door won't close, the battery won't stay in and it won't even charge.I sent it back to Olympus for repair.No can do.They said it was "damaged beyond repair".So a little plastic piece of a door has completely disabled my $450.00 recorder.Olympus' only suggestion...replacement.What is wrong with this picture???
