Anyone has seen an external mic for iPod touch 2G. I need it for voice recording. Earbuds with mic are not practical for this use. I bought a Smarttalk (Griffin) -but having a foot of dangling cable is not very practical either.
Thanks for any suggestion
After reading that the latest firmware of the iPod Touch is able to accept a microphone plugged in the dock connector as the iPod Classic, I went shopping and bought a "Logic3 Microphone Mic for iPod Nano/Classic", and I can confirm that it works flawlessly as a voice recorder solution in my 2 iPod Touch: 1G and 2G.
I've tried with a fantastic application: iPro Recorder that will let you record in different qualities up to 13 hours per GB, store, categorize and even send by e-mail, all with a nice interface.
Not all the applications work, for example Shazam doesn't work, but if you just want Voice Recording this Logic3 mic will do the trick nicely.
The only problem I'm getting with this microphone is that when it's plugged and running, the audio output is muted, either the speaker of the 2G or the headphones in both models, so when trying to use it as an IP telephone with Fring or Nimbuzz it doesn't allow you to listen to the other party. If you unplug the mic, you listen, but if you plug it it gets muted.
¿Any ideas?
