Oh heck, I need to get the OTG adapter guy to consider this too!

I asked for that back at post #21 of the OTG adapter thread:

But, considering there's a conspiracy to confuse me (that Texrat revealed), and Texrat gets all the respect, maybe Mr jolouis will do something about it for us now!

Tex, he's onto the conspiracy! Quick go to plan Romeo!

Seriously though, I'm sorry about that one qole, I remember seeing a request about USB charging, but those that thread got so overwhelmed so quickly that I missed a lot of the initial posts.

Anyways, good news for all on this one, I've gone ahead and ordered some parts and as soon as they come in I should be able to tackle this one; I'll let you know as soon as I've got something tangible!

Thanks,

Other thread got an interesting post:

iPhone adapters seem to work, but may need a ~1mm spacer added so they don't go in the jack too far.

If you can find an iPhone splitter (the ones listed had built-in mic) then that might be a sensible route...

It's funny you mention that, Benson, because the guy at Seidio said they could find no new markets for the splitters so decided to cancel them...

So it's official: no market for iPhone accessories.
Heh.

I noticed, too, that one of the iPhone adapters had a call button. If it works with the N8x0...

Well I'm sorry that it took so long, but I wanted to get it right and it took a while to source the correct parts; none the less, here it is:
http://www.electronicproductonline.c...oducts_id=1996

Tested and verified working properly with my N800 (I assume the headphone jack on the N810 is the same); no special spacers or silly fuddling around required. I'm also working on reduced shipping costs to the US (just waiting on confirmation from the "test subject" to say that the product has arrived in a timely manor) that will bring it down from the current rate of $9 to $5. Anyone who's also interested in consolidated purchasing might want to checkout my latest post on the USB OTG thread also.

Thanks!

jolouis, thanks for getting the headset/headphone speaker/microphone adapter made for the N800/N801.

I just got mine (arrived to the US from Canada in less than a week with the $9 shipping). It works great. I'm using it with the Genius HS-02N headset, which is a real bargain, with great sound in and out and extremely comfortable. (It also folds up quite small.) I just Skyped a friend, and it worked great.

(I also got "your" USB adapter, but haven't tried it yet.)
