I haven't tried this, but I have read that the earphone jack is also wired as a mic and can be used for skype, etc.

Yes you can use an iphone or other earbuds with 3 rings/bands on the connector plug which allows voice. I was trying to refine the article on this but couldn't.

If you have an app that records your voice notes you can try it out.
