I agree with Aaron's comments & would add: --
Schoeps do a great (and free) VST plugin to convert MSM as they call it or 
Double MS as Aaron & many others call it to 5.1, Stereo etc. 
see http://www.schoeps.de/E-2004/news.html#surroundbrochure

The 4060 DPA mics used in the Holphone are only  fairly quiet; very low noise 
considering their size but are hardly the best choice for "Nature Recording" 
which often requires the ultimate in low noise performance. MSM would be a far 
better option IMO. If you don't mind a bulky mic array 2x Rode NT1a's + a NT2 
could make a cheap & very low noise  double MS array that would beat the 
Holophone easily. Schoeps Or Sennheiser mics would be considerably smaller & 
lighter but at greater cost.
