Along with virtual flashlights, the other iPhone apps that developers can't seem to stop creating are voice recorders. That's not a huge surprise, given that the iPhone's built-in (mono) microphone (which isn't found on the iPod Touch) is ideal for capturing voice memos, interviews, lectures, and the like (though not your phone calls—Apple prevents such recordings).
