Is the iPod iTalk device worth the money? Does it work like they apple says it does?

no. i have barely used it since I got it a month ago. I tried to record sounds off TV but it sounds terrible. it will probably be more useful when I get into college. perhaps, its because ipod doesnt support high quality sound recording. It is only good if you want to leave a note without using pen and paper, I guess. The speaker on the itrip is not much of use as well. even ear/headphones with the maximum volume sound better and louder. ( you cant adjust the volume to the maximum using italk with 4G ipod, since it would jump to voice memo mode. its a bug...) IMO, its not worth the money. with 30 bucks, I can get better stuff like iSee, iskin, itrip or something else.justgotmyipod at 2007-11-15 16:02:56 >

I have a buddy who uses it to record lectures. He likes it. I do not need to record lectures (I take notes) so I do not want one.If you need to record spoken word, then maybe it is worth it. If you want it as a novelty then I would say it is not worth it.

Although I haven't used mine very much yet, it seems like a quality product.Sometimes, I record notes into it. I can then rename them while I am on my computer and move them. For example, I might record a voice mail message from work and then attach the file under the person's name in Microsoft Outlook.
It can be a very handy tool. I plan to use it next month to record a discussion in a workshop that I am facilitating for work.

I use my iTalk mic to record college lectures; exceptional product. Picks up lectures from podium with great clarity. Occasional hum from iPod drive, but not a big deal. I then download to computer and listen while reviewing notes, or relisten using iPod. Best money I've spent on an accessory.I plan to use it during the holidays to record "dinner table" conversations with our family.
