Earphones with Remote and Mic (for Voice Recorder??)

Hello, today I find this Earphones with Remote and Mic on Apple store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB770

It will work on iPod touch (2nd generation), so does it mean the voice recorder app (bought from App Store) is going to work on the iPod touch (2nd generation) as well?? Or the Mic is just working for the phone function??

Anybody know?

Thanks.
Raymond

Raymond,

On the page you linked to, under "Compatibility," it says this:

The remote and mic are supported only by iPod nano (4th generation), iPod classic (120GB), and iPod touch (2nd generation). Audio is supported by all iPod models.


So, yes, the mic is advertised as working with the iPod Touch 2g. I have yet to read which app will support it, but we must assume that there is one.

Regards.

Hi subgenius,

No, they aren't out of stock online! They simply weren't released yet, just like Steve Jobs said back in September during the "Music Special Event".

It should be released until the final of this month. Until then, there's no way to get this new ones, even visiting any Apple Retail Store!

Dude,

Yes, I know you were talking about the 29$ ones ( http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB770). And as I said, just like the 79$ model, they haven't been released yet.

Also, as you can see, the status is not "*Out of stock*", but "*Coming Soon*".

So both aren't out of stock, as you said...

Look, you don't have this new one! You're talking about a different one. Those two are different: [Apple Stereo Headset (In Stock)|http://store.apple.com/us/product/MA814LL/A] and [Apple Earphones with Remote and Mic (Coming Soon)|http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB770].

You have the first one! 😉
