I do quite a bit of free tech support for the Apache HTTP Server project. This happens primarily on the #httpd channel on irc.freenode.net. Every now and then, the free pays off and someone sends me something from my Amazon.com wish list.

Today was a huge win.

Today I received a Mikey in the mail. Looking forward to playing with this later!

I recorded a quick sample to see what the sound quality is like, and was very impressed. With this kind of portability, perhaps I’ll get back to recording books, which I haven’t done in far too long.

Thanks, Mr. Roberts. You’re awesome.
