Listen to Music on your Treo? Must have headset adapter!
User: Robert Immella, Dec 1, 2006
This adapter is much better than others I've seen in common electronics stores (which are usually hard plastic "nubs" that stick out about an inch or so from the device. Not only is that annoying, but can easily break off in the port.
Smartphone Experts Stereo Adapter makes it feel as though my headset is connected directly to the device.
works ok for me
User: Harry Wolfson, Nov 27, 2006
Pros:
works with treo 600 & all headphobnes I tried
Cons:
3.5mm connector a bit loose
I have used this adapter on my Treo 600 for about a year. I have used it with 3 different headphones: Grado SR60, Sennheiser PX-100, and some no name cheapo pair; as well as my car radio AUX input cable. The adapter usually works just fine, but occasionally the 3.5mm jack (where the headphones plug in) is a bit loose and I lose right or left channel - this is easily fixed with a little jiggle or rotation of the adapter. Works fine (once connector is seated correctly) walking around, with the Treo in my pants pocket. I have never tried using it while running.
Well-designed

Pros:
Good finish and appearance
Cons:
Too big for Palm 680
A great-looking case, well finished. The clip is way too strong-have difficulty getting it on my belt.
The case is too wide for the 680-it needs to be a little thinner.
Magnet works great. In general a well-constructed case easily worth the money.
Adapter

Pros:
Convenient
Cons:
Connection to headphones is loose, and cord eventually shorts out
Seems to be a great functional idea, but after about a month in a half, the cord became bent at the top and thus shorted out. Also, the connection part is loose and very annoying
Doesn't work
User: P Wilson, Nov 25, 2006
Pros:
looks like it would work
Cons:
doesn't work
This adapter doesn't work. Using this adapter with the following headphones yields sound only on the right ear:
* iPod standard headphones
* Shure e2c headphones
* cheapo dollar-store earbuds
* bose over-the-ear headphones
* line-in to my car stereo
This is the case both for my Treo (650) and the demo Treo 700 at the local Sprint store (tested demo 700 only with iPod headphones).
