I know $100 won't get me anything good, but after buying a brand new GH2 and spending near $1,00 on a new computer, my indie film start-up budget is just about spent. I was going to buy

With a Rode mic, but then it turned out I need a new computer to handle editing the GH2's videos. So now I have some cheap audio technica mic. I know if I get a decent sound recorder (as opposed to routing the mic straight into the camera), I'll get better audio, right? I'm not sure how good the on board audio on the GH2 is. In any case, I would prefer an external recorder for ease of use too. (The mic operator being able to go wherever etc...) So what I'm asking is if anybody here knows of a good $100 audio recorder, thanks.
