You would think it to be easy -- but its not.  FWIW, RadioShack Canada
does not sell such a cable, though they do sell (EXPENSIVE!!) 3.5mm to
2.5mm and vice-versa adaptors.

I hear that however that RadioShack USA  Cat# 43-2003 is exactly the
right cable -- and it is longer than 6 feet uncoiled. (Visit the
RadioShack website and punch in the number -- don't feel like pasting
a really long URL)
