This looks promising. FM Transmitter with a built in mic for hands free... Think this would work with the Hermes? Says it's for a Touch but the connectors and specs look the same. Thoughts?

Hi,
After trying about half a dozen mono and stereo bluetooth headsets each with their pluses and minuses, I've decided to stick with a wired set.
Does anyone know if there's a solution available like the boxwave dual adapter that allows handsfree use as well as your own 3.5mm stereo headphones? Boxwave doesn't currently support the 8125 though I've put in a request.

I've seen the adapter from PocketPCtechs (from another thread here) but that's geared more towards auto use.
Barring a Boxwave like adapter kit, are there any replacement wired headsets that someone could recommend?

I got adapters on eBay that worked fine, with microphone and volume control, much cheaper than the one on www.seidioonline.com.
I also highly recommend the Shure i2c-T headset that is recommended for the Treo - works great with Wizards - awesome sound (in-ear plugs with dual speakers in each ear), very sturdy - can use Voice Command but do have to press button on the Wizard to activate.
A long time ago I used to have a Nokia phone and bought a "Car Kit" which consisted of a new battery cover with belt clip, a car mount, and the speakephone base which even though it plugged into the cigarette lighter it still had a mic wire which I had to router behind the dashboard, up around the window and out just above the rear view mirror. The quality of this thing was amazing, I could hear people loud and clear and they could hear me perfectly over the loud noise that I get when driving my pathfinder.. Background noise is the biggest complaint I get from people I talk to when using wired headsets or bluetooth earpieces. I'm wondering if anyone can reccomend a good Bluetooth speakerphone device that I can use in my car? I prefer the portable type but professional kits are fine too. I don't mind spending extra on it if it's going to work and work well. I tried that Motorla visor clip speakerphone and it was awful.
I've seen some devices from Parrot, Anycom, and Jabra.. Does anyoe here have any experience with their speakerphone products? Are they any good?

I've had good results with the Sony MEX-BT5000 headunit and my Wizard. In addition to speakerphone, it also supports A2DP. Sony just announced the next generation unit (MEX-BT2500) which should also perform well.

Thanks for the info. Actually, I'm looking for something that's standalone or integrates with an existing car stereo, I'm not looking to replace my headunit as I've already invested and installed one with a DVD player/GPS Navigation system built in. Thanks anyway though!

Sony HCB-100 visor clip unit is great, not sure about integrating with your stereo though. I have steering controls so its easy to mute the stereo when a call comes through
I have been looking at the Nokia MD-8 speakers which you can pick up on eBay for around a fiver.
Anybody have any experience of these, either on a Blackstone or on any other device? Does the cable work OK as an FM antenna? What is the sound like?
My friend has one and i can confirm that speakers work with Touch HD!!!
Sound is really good for such small speakers (good bass)
Cable works as an FM antena (as all 3.5mm headphone jack cables do)
Kristaps
ya i have them too....buy those if u want to hve speaker definately...very good sounds quality
Can someone recommend some headsets with earbuds (the ones that go into the ear) that are loud and have great sound quality? HTC RC E190 STEREO HEADSET is compatible with HTC Hero GSM? Sadly I can't find a review about sound quality for that. Can someone point me in the right direction? I need something with mini-usb or 3.5mm jack connection.
Did your ATT Titan come with a wired headset?
All my previous phones came with one.
Samsung Focus headset 3.5mm plug doesn't seem to seat fully into 3.5mm jack.
Am I missing something?
The AT&T Titan does not come with a wired headset.
AT&T has been pretty cheap lately.

I missed it too. My Focus plug is probably seating fully, just doesn't appear to because of the way the notch is cut out. The Focus headset is working fine for me. My biggest beef is that the volume doesn't go down LOW enough. I'm all for a louder speaker, but whether using the speaker or the headphones, 1/30 is still too loud for me at times!!!
Seriously? ATT left out the headset to save money? The headset I received with my EU version looks and feels really cheap and could not have cost more than $5-10..

Then, why do you still want it? I'd rather buy a high quality one that I like.
