Any compliant headset? (Re: was FreeRunner Pricing and PVT update)

[Richard Reichenbacher]

I noticed only one headphone getting sound when I was using a 3.5-2.5  
adapter with a motorola phone a while ago.  I would just jiggle the  
connection or reinsert the 3.5 slowly and it would work.  Maybe you're  
experiencing the same thing from a similar crappy adapter.
