Gemini iKey portable USB recorder

Gemini iKey

This little box itself doesn't have onboard storage — you need to plug in an external USB hard drive or thumb drive, and it'll take a line signal, convert it to MP3 or WAV and transfer it to your storage device. Since the Gemini iKey doesn't have any preamps, you're not going to be recording Whitney's next album on it or anything — but this could be useful for gigging bands or DJs who record their shows/sets. It could easily replace a minidisc solution since it saves time by recording directly to a drive. At $229 it's also cheaper than something like the Edirol R-1, especially if you don't have a stack of CF cards laying about.
