[LAU] Looking for portable stereo recording device

Hey hey, I had a Zoom H4N for a long time, which is now broken. I know many - if not all - portable devices will register as class compliant mass storage devices, so Linux isn't such a specialty to consider. But I have other requirements and know that there are some people - occasionally - working with field recordings. Perhaps thinking out of the box may yield the best path. I really need a stereo microphone which can record to a memory chip as uncompressed - or lossless - 48kHz 16bit - or upwards. Since I'm blind the device has to be usable, i.e. no touchscreen and not too many/complex menus. The more static such menus the better. And it should definitely have less self-noise than the Zoom H4N. I'm looking for something up to about 230 EUR. What I've seen so far: Olympus ls-p1, it has a speech menu, less noise, but I hope that there's better quality around. I don't know about the usability of the ls-p4, nor about its sound improvement. I've seen the Zoom H5, which apparently has less noise and I can only assume is easy to use, once format and quality are set. I have considered a smart phone solution, but last time I tried, I couldn't mount my iphone app containers on Linux, so that approach I will take with caution. I think there are some microphones around which can record to a built in card/mememory... If it helps: I often used my recorder for field recordings outside, spontaneously stopping when I heard something interesting. I also used it to walk around in sonically interesting spaces. I have rarely used it mounted or set on a stable surface. I'd appreciate any pointers and suggestions.
