guslHow could I ever forget about the Creative Nomad Jukebox 3 (20GB)?
"If that's not enough, another area in which the Nomad Jukebox 3 breaks new ground is recording options. Using the analog-in or digital-in connections, you can record straight to the unit's hard drive from a variety of sources, including a powered mike. You can choose to record files as uncompressed WAVs or as MP3s compressed at bit rates of 128Kbps to 320Kbps. In other words, with the right accoutrements, you can easily turn old records, lectures, and concert recordings into MP3s or WAVs, upload them to your PC, and e-mail them or burn them onto a CD. We do wish that there were a way to monitor recording levels, but still, this is a great function."
Does "powered mic" mean that my dynamic mic probably won't work?

What's a dynamic mic BTW?
