C500 - Earphone Socket Badly Positioned!

[Guest Simon Desser]

From looking at pictures of the upcoming C500, HTC have positioned the earphone socket on the bottom edge of the phone. This means, if you use your phone as an mp3/wma player, it won't be suited to keeping it in a horizontal belt pouch :roll:

If you want to use the phone with this style of pouch (which I do), you'll have to make sure it has a hole on one of the sides to put your headphones through.

This is all well and good, but when you want to remove your phone from the pouch, either to select another album/playlist, or to stop the music altogether, you'll have to unplug the headphones first, meaning whatever you're listening to will come "blasting" out of the speaker :?

Don't get me wrong, I'll still be getting one, but there's no harm in starting to slag it off before it's even released :wink: :D
