Fair enough. 22.050 kHz is half of one channel of CD quality.

I think iLBC is turned specifically for voice recording and is a very common
codec used in VoIP because of this. The codec is free as in beer but not

I am always baffled by the lack of support of ogg speex and vorbis in the
770 apps though.
