I've used it before, and they work Ok. -----Original Message----- From: Jfw [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Brent Harding via Jfw Sent: Friday, August 14, 2015 11:35 AM To: The Jaws for Windows support list. <[email protected]> Cc: Brent Harding <[email protected]> Subject: Re: dual source headsets, where to get? I am surprised Plantronics never mentioned that one. Maybe there isn't a way to have a 3.5mm 4-ring plug for the phone end. I don't care at all about the play and fastforward buttons. I wonder why one needs an amplifier at all unless you were hearing impaired. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Michael Mote via Jfw" <[email protected]> To: "'The Jaws for Windows support list.'" <[email protected]> Cc: "Michael Mote" <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, August 14, 2015 11:16 AM Subject: RE: dual source headsets, where to get? > You can visit headsets.com.
