unsure of that adaptor, BUT my motorola rokr e6 uses a 3.5mm headphone plug that also has mic support with the 4-pin headphone+mic set that it came with. this headphone also works on all normal stereo 3.5mm sockets i have tried that are only audio out (laptop, desktop, mp3 player etc.) and it seems to work on my n800 too - the mic as well. standard 3.5mm headphones work on my rokr as well so they seem to have taken a 100% compatible path with this that works all ways (back and forth). whatever motorola did with the rokr e16 - we should do too as it works and works well. sure a 3.5mm plug is bigger than 2.5mm - but its in infinitely more convenient. we're not in the business of making such tiny phones yet where they are so small we can't fit on a 3.5mm plug... well.. not yet! :) > Joerg Reisenweber wrote: > > > B) classic 3.5mm headphones "Walkman(R)" connector, where you have to DIY > > an adapter for any standard cellphone headset?
