McDSP have announced their Retro Recorder which they say provides enhanced mobile recording on the iPhone and second generation iPod Touch. Here's what they have to say about it...
Put some fun back into audio recording with Retro Recorder by McDSP. The highly stylized yet simple interface makes recording easy on any iPhone. Patent pending Audio Level eXtension (ALX) technology improves recording quality beyond the capability of hand held recorders costing many times more. Even without an external microphone, Retro Recorder can capture detail other recorders cannot - up to 32 times more signal level.
Recorded files can be exported individually or in batches. Exported files may then be downloaded to a PC or Mac, using a Wi-Fi network.
Supports iPhone and second generation iPod Touch. An external microphone is required to use Retro Recorder on the second generation iPod Touch.

I like the design - note, I tried using the Fire recording app on my iPod touch, with the Blue Mikey, but you need the later hardware iPod - just my luck. Maybe this one will work with it.
