Hi, Jonathan, I bought one from radio shack for around 12 dollars. It comes in a little holder with paper you peel off so you can stick it onto your monitor. You can also remove the microphone from the holder. It seems to work about as well as the internal microphone when recording someone talking from the other side of a small room.
I didn't notice that it was more sensitive than the internal mike.
They also have one for around 25 dollars that has a little box placed in the cord between the microphone and jack that is an amplifier of some sort. I think it runs on AA batteries and has a little clip so you can clip the box to your belt. Due to the amplifier, I wasn't sure that would work with the MPower. Those were the only two small microphones they had other than a desktop model which was much larger. I was looking for something sensitive enough to record a lecture, like people did at ACB and CSUN using the plextalk. I was hoping it could be small enough that I could fold up the cord and put it into the accessory pouch.
Any ideas?

Hi Paul, I have a high end professional microphone but it isn't small or
cheap. Wouldn't Radioshack and the like have plenty of these small ones?
