This
gadget is awesome. It's a Belkin TuneTalk™ Stereo voice recorder for iPods. When you plug it
into the bottom of your iPod, you can record voice memos in a snap.
And there's no set-up or anything. When the voice recorder is plugged
in, a new category called "Voice Memos" shows up right on the main
menu. To run the recorder, you simply use the iPod's scroll-wheel and
select button to follow the prompts on the
iPod's main screen.
I
picked this device up at the Apple Store for a business need. It wasn't cheap
– maybe $60 or $70? But, once we heard the recording quality (which is surprisingly fantastic), Isaac & I have since used it for video voice-overs and for recording our
children's sweet little voices – while they're still sweet & little. The voice files created are easy to move into the computer for storage as well — they import right into your iTunes library.
I highly recommend it. See your local Apple Store for more info. And, here's a current list of iPod models this recorder should work with.
That is so awesome. My husband is going to go nuts when he sees this.
That is wonderful! What a great tool.
Thanks for sharing! What an awesome product!
This sounds good. But by god, when Apple launches a new iPod model, why can’t they make it so that all the accessories you’ve bought for your previous model actually continue working on the new model?! That’s so annoying.
That certainly looks like a fun little plaything! You are so cool Heather! 🙂

So the pocket mike is cool…but the vintage china is even cooler!
I’m a huge fan of yours, by the way!

I love gadgets and this one seems like it would come in particularly handy on very busy days.

We just got an Apple store– I know what the Grandparents are getting for Christmas. Cool.
I have been trying to find something like this! We love the Apple Store! Just bought Apple TV there on friday!
What a neat idea….we will have to check it out!
I had read about it but forgot the name. I am definitly getting one just so I can record my daughter! I have a little snippet of me on a tape and its funny listening to it now. Man, technology.
Try ebay! My husband got one for $20.
Sounds awesome … my kids voices would be perfect but I can not stand the sound of my own voice 🙂 Don’t know what it is but just a qwirk I guess … Happy St. Paddy’s Day

This is a great tool. Thanks for sharing, I’m thinking my husband would really like one of these. Father’s day is just around the corner too 😉
Love this idea…Do you ever get those inspired ideas in the car? You could record them with this.
Listen to Elizbeth Gilbert,author of EAT,PRAY,LOVE (at the Ted Conference) on UTUBE and you’ll know what I am talking about…(.it is great)
Thank you for the review. I have wanted to buy the voice recorder for the ipod but was worried it would not work well. I just want to record the funny things the kids say 🙂
I bought one for DH a couple of Christmases ago and we love it.. you can also use it to tape from the web onto your iPod (or from a tape onto your iPod or from a minidisc… you get the picture)
Wow! Thank you Heather for mentioning this little gem. We bought two on your recommendation and love them! I do a lot of talking on the phone and trying to keep accurate notes. Now I don’t have to, as I just record my side of a call and now won’t get mixed up or worry about losing my notes. Neat!
