The OP linked an auction that ended at 30 bucks (PLUS shipping). There's no reason to bother when, even at 22 bucks, you can get a commercial version for less. The "added functionality" is baloney, a side-effect of it being a DIY job based on the headphone adaptor.

BTW I do agree that saving the time on hacking it up yourself is worth some money; I tried and failed myself with a different type of adaptor (that others had gotten to work). However I AM saying that there's no reason to buy someone else's DIY stuff when you can get commercial, better quality stuff for the same or less.
