Sanyo announced three new PMC / IC voice recorders for Japan this morning:

ICR-B001M, records directly on SD cards, requires 1 AAA battery, and features both a line-in and line-out (51g, 96×36.6×13.3mm).

ICR-PS503RM and ICR-PS501RM, Linear PCM Recorder, features three microphone settings, regular mode, stereo mode, and zoom mode, as well as different settings modes depending on the kind of recording made (concert, conference, meeting…). These recorders are available with 2GB of internal memory and support microSDHC cards. (53g 103x 35.4 x 13.9mm).

ICR-RS110M, another Linear PCM Recorder… Not sure if Sanyo’s design team got lazy, but this is by far the least attractive thing I’ve seen so far. Luckily for us, Sanyo worked hard making this little baby as powerful as possible, by providing the ability to record FM or AM, and even schedule future recording… I’m not sure who’ll need this feature, but it looks like our Japanese friends were waiting for this function. This recorder has 1GB of internal memory and supports microSDHC cards. (113.5 x 49.5 x 18mm for 92g).
