Your HP Jornada supports several formats for voice notes. The formats vary in
both the quality of the recording and the size of the sound file. When selecting
a recording format, you should consider the quality you need as well as how
much storage memory the recording will use on your HP Jornada.
In addition, not all recording formats are compatible with other software or
computers. If you will share your recordings with others or transfer a recording
to your desktop PC, be sure to choose a recording format that is supported by
the software used to play recordings on the other computer. The default
recording format is HP Dynamic Voice. For instructions on installing HP
Dynamic Voice codec on your desktop PC, see “Installing the HP Dynamic
Voice audio codec” in chapter 3.

2. On the Options tab in the Input control panel, select a voice
recording format from the drop-down list.
The table below lists the compatibility of various recording formats with other
computers. The list of recording formats on your HP Jornada indicates the
sample rate, whether the format is stereo or mono, and how much storage
memory is required per second of recording. You may need to experiment with
different sample rates and formats to determine which format best suits your
voice.
