I had to do a couple of phone interviews for my internship a couple years ago. I went to school in North Carolina and the internship was at Madison Square Garden. I made sure that I was wide awake and tried to be as personable as possible. Phone interviews are nice because you can have all sorts of cheat sheets: the job description, company profile, your resume and cover letter. There are some people who tell you to dress up for a phone interview as you would for an face-to-face interview. The theory of course is that you will then have the same mindframe over the phone as in-person. I think that as long as you sound professional and mature, you should be comfortable. It would make me more nervous if I was sitting at the kitchen table in a business suit talking on the phone to someone five states away.
Good luck with the interview!
