Interesting ... Apple finally unlocked the iPod's recording capacities, at least according to the apple tech specs page detailing the new iPod announced yesterday. Got this off of http://musicthing.blogspot.com/:

The new iPod does proper stereo recording
Thanks to Marco for spotting that, hidden down near the bottom of the iPod tech specs page, is news that the new iPod records in 44.1khz stereo. No word yet on formats (presumably it's compressed, rather than raw aiff files), but it's certainly good news. Expect a rash of all-in one XLR port/phantom power/preamps in matching white and black. If you're looking to get started, Giant Squid Labs sell minature stereo microphones with powered preamps for $80, which are perfect for bootlegging concerts field recording.
Now just one question remains: Who did Damon Albarn have to blow to get his album cover in all the iPod ads?

That's it...all my gear is going in the trash...now I'm getting an iPod :D
 
I saw Dark New Day last night, and there FOH Eng used an Ipod to play there intro... thought that was purty cool. Used headphone out into the board in stereo.

I'm not sayin' it can butter your toast, make your coffee, and record 32 tracks at 24/96 ... But it's kind of handy if you want to make field recordings without lugging a bunch of gear around. Esp. if you carry one around all the time to listen to music, anyway ...
 
As long as my mailbox is the trash, go ahead and throw everything away =D
