I think so.
Sony variety:

"External input (AUX terminal) equipped with a radio or record, cassette, CD recording from an external source."

Still way overpriced, but the prices should come down.
Heck, you can get a pair of Church cards for the same price... Go figure!  ;D

That would be pretty handy for super stealthy operations...I would love to see this WITHOUT the mics (just a stereo line in option).

CA-14 > CA-UGLY > iPhone would be easy to sneak in even with the harshest security.

best thing I have done for a cheap 'stealth' rig is made a line in cable from a 5 dollar adapter from sparkfun for my ipod nano.. its pretty dang sweet and stealth..

missing from the picture is the battery box of course but ya get the drift.. a two dollar set of panasonic wm-61a mic capsules to a cheap batt box to the line-in of my rockboxed ipod nano and voila (talk about stealthy)!

Just noticed the plugin selling on Logitec's Japanese site for $75.

But it still makes no sense to get all these peripherals from a taper's viewpoint.

Think about it: for $60, you can pick up an entire functioning H320 on ebay, which offers pretty much the same specs as the iphone combo!
