  1. Thank you for taking these and sharing, Omar. I am particularly impressed with the sound quality. What were you recording with?

  2. On the Google Nexus One of course. I think the sound was more a function of proximity to the sound system, which is always a prudent move.

    But the advantage of the mobile Android OS was that I could film and upload directly to YouTube on the spot using the hotel Wi-Fi. All things considered, it was pretty convenient.

  3. That's actually quite amazing, considering hotel wifi bandwidth is often limited. Thanks!
