3.5mm headphones now standard on htc

[grinn]

I say the skip the 3.5 plug and just give you some comfy ear buds to use. I can live with having an adapter if only the stock ear buds would actually fit in my ears...

hahaha.
I don't trust bluetooth. (And I have good reasons not too)
Infact, I won't ever use bluetooth.

Why not BT?

I was under the impression that even the stereo bluetooth sets couldnt deliver the sound quality that wired headphones do. Is this true? I like to carry one device that does everything, and I prefer using my phone so the calls do interupt the music, keeps me from missing calls. I have an ipod touch too, but I let my 7 year old carry that around

Because of a little thing called bluejacking that I've researched.
And have performed a few times to see if it actually worked.
And not talking the programs that allow you to just spam texts/etc to phones with bluetooth,
I'm talking actually learning to hack in to the phone and have FULL control.
Not really that hard.
I won't tell anyone how to do it though
as I learned from a few hours of google searches
and a hour or two of "in the field" exercises. haha.

I agree, as I never got a single adapter, mine broke after keeping my phone in my pocket using it as a MP3 player. I loved that feature about my old 6700 but, hate my 6800 for that one thing....

Bluejacking/bluesnarfing both require your phone to be in "discoverable" mode... don't want your info stolen? turn that mode off, and you can still use your BT equipment without problem

i never really jumped aboard the bluetooth train myself. main reason probably being that i havent yet found a headset that sat comfortably on my ear. maybe i have weird shaped ears but i have tried probably upwards of 25 headsets and all sat very awkwardly. only time i really have a use for it is easy file sharing between my comp and phone.

that bluejacking thing you guys mentioned sounds kinda crazy i will have to do some research on that
