Here's what I did to the headset that came with the TP. http://mytouchpro.blogspot.com/2008/...o-headset.html I use them all of the time now.

Re: Headphones Question from TP Newbie
Yup. Came with those little HTC earbuds that I despise. Things are always getting tangled-up and I have a hard time keeping them in my ears... the two reasons I've always hated earbuds.
I'm looking for a set of corded, "over-the-head" stereo headphones -- preferrably with a boom mic but at this point I'm not going to be particular on that -- that have a mini-USB connector on the other end so I can go straight into the TP without using the HTC dongle. Apparently such a creature doesn't exist... at least I haven't found one yet |

Personally, I use this: http://www.amazon.com/Jabra-BT-3030-...0038657&sr=8-1 I know you said you don't want to use BT, but this may fit your needs. You can plug in any standard 3.5 MM headphones into this thing. It has a built in mic that allows you to answer calls if needed. Call quality isn't that bad. You can also control Windows Media Player with the controls without having to touch the phone. It's easy to connect. Just turn on bluetooth on your phone and turn on the device and it pairs it for you. |

1) have gone from stereo to mono with one "snip" and 2) are still using the original earbud piece Once again, I'm looking for stereo (for music of course) and hoping to get away from -- what are for me anyways -- very uncomfortable earbuds. |

One of the reasons I was hoping for a "non-Bluetooth" solution is the battery issue. Have had the TP for only two days now and the battery life is a drastic change from my Palm 700wx (I knew this going in though and was prepared for the "trade-off"). So I'm looking for ways to maximize battery life and figured Bluetooth is a fairly significant drain, hence the reason I was trying to keep that "off" whenever possible. That Jabra unit does look nice though |

I've done this hack: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=39966 Before I did the hack, my battery would be down to 20% when I was listening to music for 4 hours. Now I can make it to the end of the day. You should check it out. |
