I am not sure the iPod's processor could handle that. You might be looking at a hardware accessory, or at least one that supplements a microphone.

There is a point of contact at the bottom of the page, maybe not the exact one you want, but I berlieve it could get your toe in the door.

Otto,

iPodLinux is a total re-use of the iPod hardware. I believe the original poster wants to create an application that works with the existing iPod hardware AND (soft/firm)ware.

Well, then, the answer is easy. That can't be done. Don't bother trying.

See how simple answers can be when the question is made perfectly clear? 😉

Just to add a bit more detail, Katy, Apple does not intend the iPod to be a platform for outside development - they intend it to be a media player, not a PDA - so no kits for developing any applications to run on the iPod have been released. Whether or not this will change at any point in the future I don't know, but I'd doubt that we'll see development support for anything other than external accessories anytime in the near future.

(and Otto, please take it easy on the flip replies. Some people might take them badly).
