Abstract
A hand-held digital recorder apparatus (10) including a digital memory unit (11) formed to store independent data records, and retrieve selected ones of the data records. An electronic unit (12), coupled to the digital memory unit (11), is included which determines the storage location and data length of a respective data record in the digital memory (11). A graphical display device (13), coupled to the electronic unit (12), graphically represents the length and location of the data records in the digital memory unit (11) by corresponding record icons (14) to visually facilitate retrieval of the selected ones of the data records. A method for accessing stored data records from a digital memory unit (11) of a hand-held digital recorder apparatus (10) is also included.
