Best handheld for recording interviews?

Hi, I'm looking for a decent quality, affordable (~ $100?) handheld digital recorder that I can use with 2 lapel mics to record face-to-face interviews.

Ideally the device will have USB for easy transfer to a Mac.

Any advice on the best setup (including lapel mics, or not, if there are decent mic-less options) is truly appreciated.

iPad and Apple TV on a gig.

So I took the plunge and bought an iPad this summer. It's an incredible tool and I am teaching in very different (and better) ways as a result. Great music theory apps and score reading apps as well as the ability to mirror my iPad to a projector to display the apps to an entire class really makes teaching a large group much easier.

8 input studio

am looking for a simple setup for a friend who writes and does some hobby stuff. he has no equipment at all and needs to be able to get 8 tracks simultaneously. he needs monitors, a DAW or pc based recording system, some dynamics and a cheap condensor...just the basics and he has 5 grand to do it. I would help him more, but am in the middle of building a studio and a couple of projects.
