Harry, Take a look at this accessory for the iPod.
http://www.griffintechnology.com/products/italkpro This works fantastic on an iPod that is one generation old, but it will also work with the latest. I used this to record a meeting in a room of at least 800 sq. ft with high ceilings. I picked up ever word spoken and this included folks many feet from me facing away from me and only speaking in normal conversation tones The ONLY drawback was the recording was so clear it would pick up the spinning up of the hard drive. I tried this on the newer iPod at the Apple store and I didn't notice the hard drive noise but the store had lots of people and it may be that there was so much noise that I couldn't hear. This is a cost effective solution if you already own an iPod.
