Earlier today, I blogged about some of the equipment I use to make my podcasts. At the time I was still awaiting the arrival of the Audio-Technica ATR2100. As luck would have it, I was out this morning when the delivery went down. I was a bit miffed because I've been waiting at least a week for this thing.

But luck swings both ways.

While out walking this afternoon, I saw a DHL van a couple of miles away from my house. I waved him down. Luckily he didn't think I was completely mad because he slowed down and pulled over. I told him I had missed a delivery this morning. He asked me my name and sure enough, he had my package. Cool. And good on him, he did ask for ID. Happy that I was who I said I was, the DHL man gave me my package and off I went.

I thought I'd give the ATR2100 a quick test to see how it sounds.

Verdict so far is I like it. I like it a lot.
