In reply to my own mail:
I have a motorola that has only one connector: the usb.
It works great for hands free. I don't know if this is supported by
the neo1973 hardware but if it is, this could be
the solution.
Multiplexing the USB and audio would eliminate any chance of using both the
headphones and an unpowered USB addon at the same time, severely limiting the
hackability (is that even a word ?) of the phone.
The USB chip is integrated into the SOC, the sound chip is on another
bus. You can get arbitrary sound quality over USB, with a USB DAC.
Don't these cost (an order of magnitude) more than simple headphones + an
adapter ?
Oh - I see what you mean.
Actually, no, they are not very expensive - $10 or so. There are much
more expensive ones at $100+.
The $10 ones are adequate for 99.9% of users I'd guess.
