XtremeMac announced today that its highly anticipated MicroMemo digital audio
recorder for iPod will begin shipping in early July and will carry a $59.95
suggested retail price. The one-touch recording device incorporates a
detachable, omnidirectional microphone and a built-in speaker for instant
playback without headphones.
MicroMemo attaches to the iPod via the Dock connector
and records 16-bit audio in high- or low-quality formats. The microphone is
detachable from its 3.5 mm port, which can toggle between microphone or line-in
settings for use with stereo microphones or other audio devices. When attached
to the iPod, MicroMemo activates the iPod's menus and displays recording time
on-screen.
"MicroMemo is the best value in high-quality recording
for the iPod," said Gary Bart, CEO of XtremeMac. "Podcasters, journalists and
musicians have been eagerly awaiting the availability of a digital recorder for
the iPod with video, and we are pleased to offer a great solution at the right
price."
XtremeMac is now taking pre-orders for MicroMemo via
its website and will ship directly to consumers upon availability. The company
expects MicroMemo to be available worldwide by the end of July. For more
