No, you can't. I actually wasted some time looking when I saw that posted by either you or someone else. So no, it's not that simple or cheap for everyone. The time I spent looking literally was not worth it.

BTW MANY people have reported using normal camcorder cables, if you have been following the threads at all. Believe me, if you are having problems, you follow them a lot closer than if yours works. I haven't seen a 3.5mm camcorder cable ... ever ... with only mono audio.

You don't think you've lost any functionality of the dongle but you have lost some of the functionality of the dongle? *facepalm* Come on ...

And I for one would want 2.5mm jack functionality. I actually prefer a single-ear, wired solution, which is most common as a 2.5mm cell-phone accessory. You've just convinced me I did the right thing by not modifying my stock adaptor.
