Jason Snell, writing about the new USB 3 Camera Adapter:
So once the applause from Phil Schiller mentioning iPads and podcasting on stage dies down, where does this leave us? If you’re someone who wants to record a podcast in person using an iOS device and a USB mixer or microphone, you’re set. But most of the podcasts I do are conversations that are conducted over the Internet, usually using Skype. And for the iPad to be a viable device for those kinds of podcasts, Apple needs to update its software.
This hardware is a good step, but as Jason writes, we’re not there yet. I’ll still be using my Mac to record my podcasts for the foreseeable future.
