 Excellent Customer service. Aug 30, 2010
By DeFlanko
"ಠ_ಠ"
Emailed them about the iPhone 4 compatibility issue, and they sent me an email in under an hour.
Yes,
Unfortunately the Mikey is not compatible. The iPad and iPhone 4 has a 30-pin connector, however, the pin out on that 30 pin doesn't include an analog audio input that the Mikey utilizes. The only way to get audio into the iPad and iPhone 4 is via a digital input.
We're currently looking into making a Mikey that will work with the iPad and iPhone 4

 Worked great for recording band practice. Dec 05, 2010
By Richard Rosenthal
I play in a cover band, and I wanted something to record our practice and gigs for both self-critique and to post on our band's website. I was originally considering a dedicated mp3 recorder. However, while doing the research, I realized there were issues; namely, cost, battery consumption and lack of an internal speaker on the unit I was considering.
I tried using the voice recorder function on my iPhone 3Gs. After all, battery consumption and external speaker is not an issue, but the volume at anything other than an unplugged, acoustic session caused extreme distortion. Then I found the Blue Mikey 2.0. I'm pleasantly surprised at the quality of the recordings. No clipping, every instrument was heard clearly. I have a wifi setup at home, and with the BlueFire app transfer of the recordings to my computer is wireless. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone wanting to make quality recordings with their iPhone or iPod.

Totaly what I was looking for! Feb 17, 2011
By Jmo1970
This thing is great! I love my iPod, but I wanted to be able to record music on it. The Mikey delivered!
Right out of the box I knew it was gonna be cool. Vintage look, the controls are self explanatory,
Once I plugged it in and used it with the bluefire app I was sold. A few minor adjustments and the sound was impressive.
After reading some reviews I wasn't expecting much but after the first recording I wrote all of them off.
The only drawback I can see Is the connection. If your doing a hand held recording it might be a little touchy but I'm just setting it down and letting it roll while I rehearse so it's perfect.

good for lectures Dec 05, 2010
By Sondre Skarsten
I was initially quite hesitant about buying this because of the very mixed reviews, however if you have an ipod it works with, then i would say go for it! I have been using it for a few months now to record lectures i my university classes (ranging from 30 to 300 students). Although i do have to sit in the few front rows in order to get a clear audio for the professors, this would be the same with any mic (if you sit further back, you will end up listening to 100 people typing on their keyboards, and moving their chairs, not the lecturer)
3 month update: I am still recording several hours of lectures a day, and i am still getting great results. In fact i was so impressed by it that i recently bought a unit for my girlfriend, so she too would have a handy way of recording high quality lectures in class. I have however stopped using the accompanying app which is just tedious, and am now using iTalk instead (around 2$ in app store). It is way more thought through, syncing is easier and recording quality is every bit as high. As the blue Fire app is not designed by Blue themselves, i suppose the fault does not lie with them in this case.

It works with iPod 5th Generation Classic but don't believe the instructions Jul 22, 2011
By robgman
To make this work with your 5th Generation iPod Classic. Attach the Microphone to your iPod and record voice memos just as it says to in the Mikey instructions or in you iPod instructions on page 57 of [...] . Save the voice memos on your ipod Then, plug your iPod into your PC or Mac and launch iTunes. Here's what will happen. The Voice Memos will be removed from your iPod and a playlist will be created in your iTunes called "Voice Memos". Then sync your iPod and be sure to select the Voice Memos. You can then play it back on your iPod by going to Voice Memos in your playlists.
None of the instructions, either from Mikey or Apple, will tell you that this is how it works but, this IS how it works with the 5th generation iPod Classic.
I'm pleased with my purchase.
