After much frustration, I did a little googling tonite, and found something that I've been dying for for quite some time.


I use the heck out of my iPhone. And when I'm working a detail- I will have my tunes nice and low (in one ear). My problem has always been- my earphone was very conspicable- and depending on which way I turned my head, my wire would get pulled too tight (I keep the wire under clothing).


Lookie what I found- thought I'd share it with other folks that may have the same desire that I have! :D

Interesting.


I used to use a Motorola earpiece almost just like that . Our company gives them to our crane riggers to plug into their speaker mic on loud jobsites. The one I had had a smaller plug then my ipod but I got an adapter for it for like $3.00. I used my for a couple years when biking on city streets, worked great. I'm not sure why other companies haven't come out with this before, the tube thing is great for any kind of movement.


I also have a very $$$ set of Shure earphones that have acoustic tubes for both right and left but you work think someone would come out with a lower priced set.

I just resurrected my old classic IPod, which sort of got deadlined 'cause i didn't like earbuds. Does this thing provide for any quality of music, even if it is mono?

Did you buy one? How does it work?
Jebus- its a simple eartube with a speaker attached to it- mono speaker. Some come with a inline microphone so you can use it as a normal wired cell phone headset.


buy headset


plug into headphone jack


stick other end into one ear.


Listen.


This is not new by any means, I had one back in 2007 from another company.. Got bored with it pretty quick- I don;t like my ears plugged.


Even with surv headsets, I purchase that other earpiece that sits around your ear canal, not in it.

Just make sure you get the rubber bumper so you can hold the phone normally without killing the signal :)


What model BB? What OS version? Have you checked blackberryforums<dot>com or crackberry<dot>com recently? Lots of OS updates, etc.


On another note, I've got a lightly used 9630 I might be selling after this weekend if I pull the trigger and upgrade to the 9650.

I have one on my radio at work as well. Comes in handy when checking out buildings where the sound echos. Probably the best accessory Ive ever bought. Paid for itself a 100 times over!
