Fine adapter - Review written on March 20, 2007

Does its job. A bit large. Solid build but adds unnecessary bulk. Works great on an HTC Wizard (t-mobile MDA)

After looking for earphones for the Treo 650 and not finding any good one I decided to go the adapter route. Cant say I am dissapointed.
Although it does add to the length of the phone in your pocket and does'nt look very aesthetic, functionally I could'nt be happier.

When you buy a phone at this price, it should come with this accessory at no additional cost. Charging $9.99 is an insult. Went to Office Depot and I was able to find an HP iPAQ Stereo Earphone that includes the headphone and the adapter for the same price. The HP kit is made by www.Belkin.com (Part#F8U0106-HP). The adapter looks identical to this one.
Works Great With My Treo 650 - Review written on February 22, 2005

All,

I bought this product recently and I am using it right now while I am writing this review. It works exactly as you should expect reading the description of the product. You get stereo playback from your MP3 files on your Treo. There is no doubt that these work with stereo output, I can distinctly hear the left and right separation on my songs.

I actually own a (Cingular) GSM Treo 650 and wanted people to know that this product works great with it. It doesn't say that it works with the 650 anywhere because they probably just haven't updated the product description since the Treo 650's came out.

It does kind of suck that you have to buy this product at all. Palm should either provide it with the unit or build in a headphone jack in addition to the 2.5 mm jack. But what you gonna do.

Regards,

At first I had the same mono problem. The adapter just wasn't plugged in all the way. The leather case on my 600 was keeping it out about 1/2mm A little snip to make the hole in the leather case bigger and it works perfect. Sounds great on quality headphones. Sounds incredible when patched through my car audio system. Buy it, you'll like it.
Does what it's supposed to... IN STEREO - Review written on December 21, 2004

I don't know what the other reviewers are trying, but there is absolutely no doubt that this is a stereo adapter.

If you want to test it out, connect your STEREO headphones to this adapter and your phone and then play "Domination" by Pantera. Half of that song is guitars alternating left and right one at a time. You can't get much more proof that this adapter is stereo and works like a champ.

I bought it and I'd happily buy it again.

Allows me to plug my stereo headphones into my 600 and get stereo sound out via the MP3 software. Only gripe is that this piece is necessary at all. I often forget to bring it since I switch back and forth between using it with the 600 and not using it with my laptop.

This adapter works flawlessly. Perhaps the other reviers headphones are on the blink. I have listened to quite a few tracks in which there are distinct left and right instuments, and found it to work perfectly. If you have a Treo 600 and would like to listen to Mp3's then it is a must have.

I thought this was stereo headphones for palm 600. This is just an adaptor that allows you to plug in mono headphones into a stereo jack. Who would want to listen in mono, worthless accessory, sorry I bought it, will never need it. Don't buy mono headphones.

Just a small adaptor that would cost a few bucks at fry's.
