MixUp Arabia is back.. sort of. Go ahead.. Accuse me of geekery and “podcasting about podcasting” if you want. That’s exactly what I am doing here! I am testing by brand new iRiver iFP 790. It can record! From a Mic! Even my professional Mic. Cool!
I am hoping to do some mobile podcasts from now on with this device. Expect a MixUp Arabia CarCast soon. Reporting from the streets of Amman!

Your podcasts have given me an idea. I am a member of a group called “Great Decisions” (greatdecisions.org). We discuss American foreign policy and I would like to add a new dimension to these small group discussions by IP videoconference connections with similar small groups of ordinary citizens of mideastern countries. Direct hookups people-to-people, bypassing politicians and corporate controlled news media. Anyone interested???
Good sound! I work with the i-River T30 with the Vivanco EM 35 microphone.
