Surely there is a converter somewhere to convert it to the 3.5mm.

He was planning on some kind of cable with the iPhone headset style
3.5mm connection on one side, a regular 3.5mm connector like computers
use on the other, and the other end of the cable would plug in to any
iPhone compatible headset mic. It's looking about half the price of
the nearest solution I found elsewhere, which was the Plantronics
SMH-1783-11, which is more for corded phones to go between the handset
and phone. I don't think the phone handset connector can be adapted
for iPhones though.

Subject: Re: dual source headsets, where to get?
what I do when the need arises is to use a single earpiece headset
(headphone plus a built in mic) connected to the phone and one earbud
plugged into the computer. now I'd be interested in the adaptor the
engineer comes up with, as I'd like to have a more elegant headpiece
in attempt to eliminate all the wires.

I am wondering how you go about getting a dual source headset to be
able to hear JFW on one side and have a phone call on the other
side. Even better, it would be nice if the microphone sent its
output back to the phone. I tried getting quotes on a sight called
Thumbtack, and I spoke with a guy who answered who does audio
engineering on the side. He thinks he could make a cable where I
could plug any headset mic in to do this, as long as it had the
combination jack that combines the headset and mic on it. If one was
going to use a phone that has the same kind of jack as the iPhone,
which uses the 4-band, 3.5mm connector, does such a product exist?
The closes thing I found years ago was a discontinued Plantronics
headset, but it only had the RJ headset plug for the phone side,
which may or may not be able to be adapted. Also, I'd like something
less expensive than that. I spoke with Plantronics the other day,
and it appeared that what they may have had has been discontinued so
long
ago that it isn't in their system any more. The guy told me that the
only dual source headsets like that have to be manually switched
between phone call and other source, which doesn't work if you switch
to read something and the person on the other end says something you
missed. What are people doing to achieve this these days?
