This line is being recorded.

I have an 8GB iTouch with a voice recorder, and a crappy Samsung flip phone. I am about to do a phone interview, and I need to record it. What's the best way to hook my MP3 player up to my phone to record the interview?

Alternate, no gadget route: get a Google voice account, call using the GB number, and record by pressing 4 during the call.

I do my phone interviews using the earpiece mic for my Olympus recorder. No reason it shouldn't work with a diff recorder device. It's an earbud you stick in your ear and then hold the phone on top of. Works better than you think it should. The only drag is not being able to switch ears during a convo.

The search term you're looking for is 'telephone pickup'.
