Recording from external sources on the N91?

Hi all,
Might buy this phone this week but have a question!
From what I understand it is possible to record audio form external sources, like the home stereo or whatever. Isn't this correct? If so, does the headphone jack also work as a line in input?
Many thanks!

In theory there is a cable CA-63U that does something like this and yes it plugs into the headphone jack. However I haven't seen anything about this since the launch.

Ah, yes as I thought. Can the phone then record this into .MP3 or whatever?
The cable you talk about this is not included in the package?

I'm afraid I don't know. I think it is possible that its a funtionality that is no longer included sine I don't think it is mentioned anywhere (e.g. in the manual).

The cable is defintely not in the sales package.

OK, well I read it on their webpage that you could record from other sources so I really hope that it will work
I had a look in the manual but couldn't find anything about recording from an external source.
