Guest pedd Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 Firstly, apologies if this has been covered in more depth elsewhere, but I've had a pretty thorough search and have found nothing conclusive: I'm using an Orange SPV M2000 and I hate wires. Expansys have a few sterero headsets in stock which may or may not be compatible with the M2000, the anycom, the HP ipaq, the bluewalker... Is there anyone out there who has bought one of these things and got them working to a satisfactory level? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest fraser Posted May 4, 2005 Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 I did read a review/discussion about one of the stereo ones on this site. You might need to search/dig around a little to find it, but it's there somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Disco Stu Posted May 4, 2005 Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 Here's one thread : http://www.modaco.com/index.php?showtopic=...ereo+headphones Do a search on "stereo headphones" in the Magician section and you'll find a few. I gave up on the idea due to the bulk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pedd Posted May 4, 2005 Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 I did find that thread, thanks, but it doesn't seem to resolve anything. There are 3 or 4 headsets out there that don't require a dongle to plug directly into the headphone socket. But expansys aren't able to assure me that they will will work with the M2000. I have neither the patience or the time to try and get a straight answer out of Orange on this one. I was just wondering if anybody had actually got this sort of set up working, and what sound quality you could get from them. I've read one guy complaining that the HP headphones are unlistenable if they get more than 2 feet from his ipaq. Thanks for replying anyway guys, I'll keep looking.

Guest fraser Posted May 4, 2005 Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 Post back if you find a decent pair that work. I gave up on the idea myself because a) the bulk (like Disco Stu) and ;) the fact they didn't have microphones. You'd need to switch headphones to answer a call. Completely stupid!! I'm now considering sewing in the wired ones into a jacket or two. Have it pop out in the pocket, and store the buds in an inside pocket. Mostly to stop the tangle that is really annoying me now!

Guest pedd Posted May 5, 2005 Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 This Anycom one has a mic. But it's not out yet - and I'd have to be sure I wasn't walking round looking like someone in a call centre. ...Of course the real frustration is that these things never make it to the shops so you can't try them, or even look at them first.

It's like the Rune Goldberg cartoons, where you have an incredibly complex system to do something basic. Kinda like having an old bell ringer ringtone on a PDA! ;) Think of the engineering that went in, just to replace a metal dome and a hammer!

Guest spacerace Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 These ones from Expansys seem to be very small, and have an inbuilt Mic. http://www.expansys.com/product.asp?code=1...&asource=124583 Wonder if anyone has tried them ?
