This is misleading though because that cable doesn't even exist yet. So basically you can only use it with the onboard microphone on your iPhone, or with a third party mic for the iPod.
If they ever actually do have a real cable for it, I doubt it will look like that anyway. They have it plugged in to the headphone port.  It will need to plug into the charging/accessories port in the middle which is a thin, long retangular port in the middle.
In fact, if that cable in the pic was what you actually needed you could just pick up an adapter just like that at Radio Shack.
Cool idea, but I'm still skeptical as to them actually making a cable for it. |
That's weird check this out:
They are marketing this too:
Peterson Strobe Tuners - Peterson Strobe Tuners Online Store
.. a mic that appears to plug in to the 'headphone jack'. I think you're right though, a friend of mine was going to get in to some iPhone - audio app development - and mentioned something about needing a special cable - and was kind of aggravated by Apples dearth of documentation (that they'd share anyway)! I'll have to go to some poking around the Apple Developers forums - now I'm curious.
Edit: Looks like the headphone jack is capable
