XtremeMac Introduces MicroMemo High-Fidelity Voice Recorder for iPod

Detachable unit enables high-quality audio input and instant playback

San Francisco, CA and Fort Lauderdale, FL
– (Jan. 10, 2005)
Macworld Conference and Expo today, XtremeMac announced a new voice recorder for the iPod with video. The recorder, called MicroMemo, utilizes the iPod’s high-fidelity audio capabilities to record 16-bit audio via an included, removable microphone, or any compatible microphone with a 3.5 mm plug.

Powered by the iPod’s internal battery, MicroMemo features a microphone with a flexible neck for recording memos and other audio content directly into the iPod. It connects via the Dock connector at the bottom of the iPod and includes a built-in speaker for instant playback without headphones. XtremeMac notes that this is the first recorder developed to take advantage of the new iPod’s high-fidelity capability and is the only recorder of its kind to offer a removable microphone and built-in speaker.

MicroMemo also boasts a one-touch recording feature that activates the recording mode even when the iPod is in play mode. With the press of a button, MicroMemo automatically switches the iPod from play to record mode.

"Tango is the newest member of our growing line of audio products for iPod." said Gary Bart, CEO of XtremeMac. "Our goal was to deliver phenomenal sound quality at any volume level, giving our customers the most flexibility in the way they use Tango, and we have succeeded in doing that."

"This is a groundbreaking device in the world of iPod accessories," said Gary Bart, CEO of XtremeMac. "MicroMemo adds a whole host of digital recording capabilites to the iPod, from simple voice memos to high quality digital audio from professional recording equipment. Now any audio device with a 3.5 mm connection can record directly to your iPod."

MicroMemo is scheduled to begin shipping in late Spring 2006 and will sell for a suggested retail price of $79.95. For more information on MicroMemo or Xtrememac, visit www.XtremeMac.com.
