“With Mikey and Eyeball, we’re building on the success of Snowflake and Snowball, our first consumer products, and changing the
game for portable recording and personal broadcasting,” said Skipper Wise, Blue’s president. “Previous web cams and recorders
were
designed like computer peripherals, not specialized consumer
electronics; we’ve re-invented these markets with Blue’s sense of
style and commitment to superior sound.”
Mikey:
Mikey
is a recording device for the iPod that makes recording lectures, voice
notes, live music, and interviews easy on the ubiquitous
music and video player.
Mikey features:
• Blue's superior quality stereo condenser capsules
• Three position user selectable gain settings
• Built in speaker for playback
• Unique user positionable head

Mikey works with iPod 4G, 5G, 6G, iPod Nano 2G, 3G and iPod Classic and is compatible with most protective cases.
With the introduction of Mikey it’s never been easier to capture content with the award-winning, famous Blue sound on the go.
Eyeball:
Eyeball
is a web cam with exceptional audio and outstanding video, making it
perfect for instant messaging, and video conferencing.
Eyeball features:
• Blue's superior condenser capsule
• Premium lens with Super HD video
• Camera-off privacy position with innovative lens pop in and out feature to prevent accidental broadcasts
• Plug and Play ease of use? no driver needed
Using
the same integrated stand and case design as in Blue's popular
Snowflake USB mic, the Eyeball also includes a custom designed
monitor adapter making it simple to position it on virtually any laptop or desktop monitor.
Mikey and Eyeball redefine the concept of the consumer audio peripheral by combining functionality that has become common with
uncommon audio quality and design.
Blue has introduced several products over the past year including Icicle, Snowball and Snowflake that blend the company’s
experience in pro audio with the ease of use and forward thinking design required by consumers.
Pricing and Availability
Both
new products will be available in December 2008 for a suggested price
of $79.99 for Mikey and $99.99 for Eyeball at flagship
retail
partners such as The Apple Retail Store, Amazon.com and other fine
pro-audio and consumer electronics retailers worldwide.
