How can I record calls easily on my cell phone?

I'm looking for a device or setup that will allow me to record calls on a cell phone (preferably using the 2.5" headset jack). Radio shack seems to have recently discontinued their Wireless Phone Recording Controller, Cat. #17-855, which is exactly the kind of thing I'm looking for. Can anyone point me to a similar item?
I want to conduct some family history interviews, but my family is spread out all over the country, so I'll need to do some of them over the phone. I already have an MP3 digital audio recorder, and I'd like to connect it to my cell phone via the headset jack and speak using a headset.
I've Googled and searched Amazon, but I can only seem to find devices for wired phones or awkward-seeming earbud/microphone combinations that would prevent headset use.

There are several of the radio shack devices on ebay. Just search for "Wireless Phone Recording Controller".

There's also this (Olympus). I use it myself, decent quality. Probably lower quality than plug in solutions, though. And you have to keep you phone on the same ear during the entire call too, ldo ;)

Google Voice lets you record calls. At the beginning of the phone call, there is a recorded message that announces that the phone call is being recorded.
