If you want to experiment with binaural recording and don't want to spend lots of money on the Neumann, there are microphones that will fit in-ear like earbuds.

Edit: Neumann also has an Android app that will allow you to quickly calculate stereo recording angles when using conventional mics. Unfortunately, it requires Adobe AIR to be installed as well. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=air.com.neumann.recordingtools https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=air.com.neuman...
