Guest Rob_Quads Posted January 14, 2004 Report Posted January 14, 2004 Whats the cheapest place anyones found a right angled 2.5mm to 3.5mm adaptor? There are a few around that are not right angle but they will result in the plug sticking out a mile once your head phones are in the adaptor. Cheapest I have found so far is £9.24 from http://www.ipaqrepair.co.uk/view_product.p...php?product=227 Anyone got any other suggestions?
Guest mvsmith07 Posted January 14, 2004 Report Posted January 14, 2004 http://www.pc-mobile.net is where I purchased mine from. £3.70 + £2.50P&P was the price at the time I got mine. Check out the site to see if they're still competitive.
Guest Rob_Quads Posted January 14, 2004 Report Posted January 14, 2004 How long did it take to get to the UK? Just a shame you can't buy that along you need to spend $11 - all the other bits for the phone i already have.
Guest ChrisJM Posted January 14, 2004 Report Posted January 14, 2004 hi ! why so much ?! u can get one from maplin for 79p ! you can order it HERE or they also sell them in the stores
Guest M@rkC Posted January 14, 2004 Report Posted January 14, 2004 hi ! why so much ?! u can get one from maplin for 79p ! you can order it HERE or they also sell them in the stores Erm, no, that's a DECT phone......not a bad price though :!:
Guest PritenC Posted January 14, 2004 Report Posted January 14, 2004 hi ! why so much ?! u can get one from maplin for 79p ! you can order it HERE or they also sell them in the stores But he wants a right angled one so that it doesn't stick out of the side of the phone. i have the one from maplin, it keeps on coming out of the socket because it is so long P
Guest Rob_Quads Posted January 14, 2004 Report Posted January 14, 2004 hi ! why so much ?! u can get one from maplin for 79p ! you can order it HERE or they also sell them in the stores As someone else pointed out I want a right angled one as once you have put the adaptor in and then the headphones plug you are talking about a bit sticking out the side of the phone by almost 2 inches! Thats fine if its just sitting in my desk but I am looking at putting it in pockets etc. I normal adaptor would be snapped in minutes I am sure
Guest Jakob Posted January 14, 2004 Report Posted January 14, 2004 Hmm.. What about left angled adaptors - do they work :?: 8) I went the through all my old phonecrap, found a crappy NoNameNokia headset with the angled plug, cut the cable, soldered in a 3.5mm female and I ended up with a superb connector... /JAkob
Guest PritenC Posted January 15, 2004 Report Posted January 15, 2004 Good Idea, but arent they mono (not stereo) P
Guest PritenC Posted January 15, 2004 Report Posted January 15, 2004 didn't know that, because all of the nokia/siemens/motarola/samsung ones i have only one earpeice - so i assumed it was mono P
Guest mvsmith07 Posted January 15, 2004 Report Posted January 15, 2004 You don't have to spend the minimum amount to get that jack, or at least you didn't when I purchased it. At the time they didn't have their separate SPV page. You had to email them for a price for an item for the SPV because those items were, in fact, designed originally for the XDA, but were compatible with the SPV 'cos they've got the same manufacturer. Just looked at their website again and the payment method of NoChex has been removed. I paid using this method and was allowed to spend just the amount needed to purchase the jack and pay the £2.50 P&P.
Guest Rob_Quads Posted January 15, 2004 Report Posted January 15, 2004 In the end i have ploked for the one I found for just under £10. i want it for the end of next week as i am going away snowboarding and they have them in stock in the UK so I will get it before i go.
Guest simonbratt99 Posted February 2, 2004 Report Posted February 2, 2004 hi rob, check out my posting (ok not on jack, but i just got back from LaPlagne and i uploaded some example skiing pics from last week) using the E100 http://smartphone.modaco.com/viewtopic.php?t=103514
