*grin*...I use an H1, but no Lapwings near here. It works fine to simply set on a stand and record a live group in a room.
It has a threaded recess where on can creatively attach any sort of stand or holder using the proper thread, (I have about 4-5 ways to hold it, including a 'holster' that hangs on my belt) and it has a setting for either auto-volume control or manually setting... and it will record either .wav or MP3.

Not as fancy as my wife's H2, but easier to use a a moment's notice.
