'Micro Memo' stands guard over Nano

OK, so it may not be the "iKaraoke," but we like this iPod microphone anyway. Mostly, we admit, because of the way the "Micro Memo" looks--it reminds us of a beefeater guarding Buckingham Palace. The mic can record up to 51 hours (in low mode) on an 8GB Nano, but Newlaunches warns that the audio is saved in large WAV formats. Its movable arm can be positioned appropriately when needed, before returning to stand at attention.

That's a member of the Queen's guard. A beefeater is a Yeoman Warder. http://
