Well, ok...hrm.  Their mic is cheap enough.  I just figured since I've 
already got a flat mic, it'd be nice to use it, but that's ok, I can get 
theirs I suppose.

Just out of curiosity though, what would it take to provide the 48V/10mA 
phantom power from somewhere else?  Is it possible without more work 
than it's worth?
