M-Audio has updated its $149 Podcast Factory released last year with the more advanced Podcast Factory Deluxe kit.
Included in the box (and pictured) are two desk standing Nova condenser microphones and an M-Audio MobilePre USB audio interface that can route VOIP services through its driver to record phone interviews.
Bundled software includes Ableton Live 4 Lite for recording/mixing and Red Square Podifier for generating RSS feeds and uploading completed podcast episodes online. The Podcast Factory Deluxe is expected to be available in February at $299.

Ok, it's a podcasting kit - it has nice looking microphones, but who knows how good they are? Check online catalogs for mics that are at least this good.
The benefit of this kit appears to be that the kit has a specific box that functions as a mixer (designed for voices) that will allow you to carry on a conversation and record it - assuming you have something to plug the USB into - a laptop is great for portability, but an old computer with a fast USB might be good to dedicate to this (ie. home radio/interview station)
The recordings I have done use an old "came-with-the-computer" mic and a laptop and I get great pickup. There's lots better mics, but so far the quality is great.
