Microcassette recording ==> .snd files

I'm somewhat electronic-theory-impaired, so bear with me if this is a  
really stupid question. :-) My wife is a law student and she records  
many hours of lecture each week on a little Sony microcassette  
recorder. Is it electronically possible to "zap" the recordings into  
the NeXT as .snd files, at speeds that are faster than real time. I'm  
sure I could hook something together that would allow me to input one  
hour's worth of recording in one hour. But is there a way that the  
cassette could be read by some other (unknown to me) device that could  
feed the output into a .snd file that could be managed on the NeXT?

It would defeat the purpose to spend an hour dubbing the tape into the  
computer. But if this could be done, if effect, at super-fast-forward  
speed, it might be more helpful.

Unfortunately, I don't know enough about the nuts and bolts of this to  
know if this is feasible or not. If anyone has done it, or knows how to  
do it, or knows of products on the market that would help, please let  
me know.

Thanks!
