<div class="gmail_quote"><div> 2.5mm head set.<br><br>coz <br>1. a phone should have a headset adapter for speaker and mic. <br>2. blue tooth adapters are costly ($40 ) and 2.5mm headsets are $2 in India ( please focus on the relative cost, I am sure its the same elsewhere).<br>
3. its extremely easy to make a 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapter. but impossible to get the mic signal out if its a 3.5mm jack. a 3.5mm headset jack with mic is not standard<br><br>Thanks<br>-GK<br>PS: I cannot get rid of this pesky warm feeling every time I see Openmoko out do themselves with all this openness nonsense, common, be a man and just take some random decisions will you (tongue in cheek).<br>

A short poll: on a future GTA0x (>2), would you prefer to have<br>
A) "standard" 2.5mm headset (mic+phones) connector, where you have to buy a<br>
cheap adapter if you want to use your "old" headphones, (the way like it's<br>
for GTA01/02)<br>
or<br>
B) classic 3.5mm headphones "Walkman(R)" connector, where you have to DIY an<br>
adapter for any standard cellphone headset? (or does anybody know of 3.5mm<br>
headSET standards or adapters?)<br>
<br>
<br>
please hurry to vote, we have to make a decision. Thanks<br>
<br>
cheers<br>
