Podcasters tools - record 16 Bit digital audio with Video-iPod 13.01.2006

For our English speaking visitors: Jonathan Marks, a Journalist, Podcaster and Broadcasting Consultant from Huizen in the Netherlands, is justifiably complaining for months now (e.g. 26.04.2005 and 23.04.2005), that there is no possibility to do recordings at broadcast standard with Apples “iPod”-devices, because the quality of 8 kHz given so far is just unacceptable!

But today I discovered via tuaw.com, that a supplier of audio accessories for iPods will be selling a ‘digital voice recorder’ for Video-iPods which will be named “MicroMemo”.

They promise to “record 16-bit digital audio right into your iPod. Capture high-fidelity audio of ideas, meetings, or just about any other content right into your iPod. Comes with a flexible, detachable microphone.”

MicroMemo

To receive a notification, when “MicroMemo” finally will be available, you have to give them a name and an eMail-address (the form accepts @spamgourmet.com-addresses).

Or if you’re at the MacWorld SF 2006 you can see the “MicroMemo” in person at Booth #1807.

So if anybody gets his/her hands on this iPod accessory: Please tell us about the quality, usability etc. ;-)

Update 1: As MSC told us, the MicroMemo is now described as 44 kHz recorder and not 22 kHz anymore.
