    Can anyone recommend an accessory that will transmit better sound for Skype lessons on an iPad?

    I called our local iPad store and they recommended either a jbl9 or the iLove. Has anyone used one of these?

    Thanks for any advice you can give!

    I’ll follow up on this in case it might help someone else. I was looking for an auxilliary mic for my iPad because I want to use it for taking Skype lessons. The mic that comes in the iPad doesn’t sound that great and I was sure there had to be a better option.

    I went to our local PeachMac store today thinking I might be able to get a Yeti mic to work with it somehow, since musicians seem to like it and Skype says it works well with their program. But the tech guy in the store couldn’t figure out a way to get it to work, so I ended up with an iRig Mic.

    It works fine with Skype and is a big improvement on the mic that comes in the iPad– and it was very reasonable price-wise. The only drawback is that you have to wear the Apple earbuds with it, but it’s worth it for the sound.
