iLounge takes a look at Griffin's iKaraoke
iLounge has gotten their hands on one of the more interesting forthcoming products from our friends at Griffin, the iKaraoke. Check out the iLounge article for a look at the UI on the iPod, and pictures of the product itself which looks very much like the rendered graphics accompanying this post.The only problem I see with the iKaraoke is that I can never remember the lyrics to songs, and my music's metadata doesn't include lyrics. What's a singin' fool like me to do?

The widget pearlyrics will help you out with filling in your metadata for song lyrics. Works quite nicely.

My music get automatically in my songs thanx to a great widget "pearLyrics" (http://www.pearworks.com/pages/pearLyrics.html) that is "not" available anymore.
Other apps are also available, but don't work automatically I think.

How is this a Karaoke Machine?? It has no way to see the lyrics! Sorry but the only song I have memorized is Rudolph the Red Nose Raindeer.

Lyrics can be added to your music within iTunes preferences on both Mac and PC. You can access the lyrics by clicking the center button on your iPod or 4 times consecutively to access. I have been adding lyrics to most of my favorite MP3's for a while and this device was the missing link, now I can show off my vocal talents on the road....
ehem ehem...here it goes...hope I get it right this time... Do-re-mi-fa-so-la-tiiiiiiiiiii!
I'm also interested to find out if this device also had recording abilities. Now I am using a Belking recorder on my 8GB - 2G ipod nano(Black). I have tested the Belkin recorder on the other 2G nanos, and they also work like a charm.

There are a handful of great widgets that automatically add lyrics to the songs in itunes... I've tried "harmonic" and also "sing that itune!" - both worked really well.
