Apple Thoughts: FiRe Audio Recorder Now Available

"Audiofile Engineering, a leading audio software developer for the Mac, announces the world's first professional field recorder built exclusively for the Apple iPhone and iPod Touch. Created for audio professionals by audio professionals, FiRe brings several firsts to the iPhone platform. Audio pros can now use this mobile platform for serious field recording with an accurate real-time waveform display, audio markers, support for professional Broadcast WAVE metadata, and the instant downloading of audio files in multiple formats."

I've always had a need for a field recorder, but never had (and still don't have) the money to buy one. Enter my iPhone, which already does pretty much everything in my life anyway, and now I may not need to shell out for one. It even supports external microphones!

At $5.99, maybe it's worth looking at regardless. Anyone else in the market for a field recorder and liking what they're seeing here?
