obviously it's not "plug and play", does this even work for the touch? if so how?

I dont think that that adapter will work at all. The pin configuration is different.

HTC products have 11 pin ExtUSB and that is a 4-5 mini USB.

HTC products use ExtUSB, which is an HTC proprietary connector that features a USB (with power) and Headset connections in a single combined connector.

You need something like this.

that way you don't have to pul it to answer a call whe you are listening to music and I also use it in the car to play music into the aux input of my radio, agin so I can answer a call when I am listening to music.

so i can't talk when the previous one listed is plugged in?

I've got the exact one that was listed... it's great.
The beauty is that you can plug in standard headphones, and it also includes a mic on it (the rectangular thing) so that you're headphones can be used as if it were a headset. Works like a charm.

I bought that adapter from radio shack and it didn't work in my car(my receiver has a 3.5" input) and nothing came through. I switched back to the stock dual splitter and everything was fine. Kind of glad I did, because my Receiver has both a USB and 3.5" plug, the USB charges and the 3.5" sends the music through the receiver. The only down side is if I get a call I have to unplug it or use a bluetooth headset because I can hear the caller but the mike somehow is diabled.
