M-Audio Protools Recording Studio

This wootoff has been a total fail for me. I shockingly missed out on the BOC, even though I loaded the page at the exact right time, and kids.woot ended early. This has actually put me in a sour mood. :*(

From a buy.com review:

“Runs for hours on the two AA batteries! Very discrete too.”

Is this for real or a misplaced review? Why does a USB device need batteries?

Misplaced Review. I bought this woot for getting back into doing voiceover on a radio show I’ll be taking over. It’s perfect for it.

Definitely a deal-breaker. If this thing had phantom power, it’d be perfect for my needs (portable laptop-based vocal studio).
