[MV] Using the DS2 with macspeech

[Chuck Rogers]

Richard:

Keep in mind that Griffin changed the USB chip inside of the iMic  
some time ago. We haven't tested the newest one, but we know the  
older model iMics that have ($223) or ($420) as part of their product  
ID will work fine. You can find out which one you have by connecting  
it to your computer and running System Profiler. We also know that  
newer ones that still have the silver casing won't work well. We hope  
to have the new white iMics tested soon.

Best Regards,

Chuck Rogers
