Why is anyone with an HTC device worried about the headphone jack? The TP is the second generation of the HTC flagship model not having one... Adapter works fine.

Well my issue is after a while, that dongle ends up jarring the connection loose in the phone for some reason and then the stereo sound starts cutting out on you.

It's still not a deal breaker for me but lets not act like it isn't a problem at all. You people saying it wouldn't be nice to have a 3.5 jack along with a mini usb? HTC said they were taking in the feedback from people on the TP to make the TP2 better but still no 3.5mm jack? And this is the 3rd phone in a row by HTC (Mogul, Touch pro/Diamond, TP2) that has no headphone jack. It would be a welcome addition but it is still not a deal breaker for me.

Actually the TP2 is the 5th, while the 6600 Harrier and the 6700 Apache weren't HTC branded they were HTC manufactured althought I know that doesn't really help the people that don't care

And actually I'm one of the them, I don't think the headphone jack is a big deal because at least they're including the adapter unlike the 66/6700 and Mogul; and besides, stereo bluetooth is getting better and cheaper so that's what I use

I agree with you. Stereo bluetooth is the future of headphones. In a few years 3.5 mm jacks will be a thing of the past. I love my wireless headsets. Why would i want more cords then i need?

Sounds like a warranty replacement to me....

I will say that switching to the micro (isn't that supposed to become the new industry standard) will "supposedly" prevent this but who knows. All I know is that not buying a "Phone" because it doesn't have a headphone jack is as rediculous as not buying a call because it doesn't have an iPod connection.

"Yeah, I know it's fast, reliable and holds it's value but damn, it doesn't have a factory iPod cable??? F that, I'll go get a Ford Focus!".

It was pretty goofy with the adapter to a mini jack then an adapter to the 3.5 but it worked, I suppose. Ah... I don't miss not being able to put my big brick phone in my pocket. We've come a long way.
