Neither does a 3.5mm jack to 2.5mm plug seem to exists, even less imaginable is it that it would support 4 conductors (stereo + mic). But as soon as it is reasonable to mass produce them some company will. And in the meantime i am certain that there is some one in you local OMG/LUG/UUG that have at least basic soldering skills. The parts needed cost ca. 4-6€ in Denmark at the local RadioShack (Brink Elektronik or what ever your local eletronics store is called!) - Lasse _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
