Expansys (or Mobile Planet as it likes to be called now) has a handy little converter that will toggle the ExtUSB port to a more standard 3.5mm plug for use with your headphones. It doesn't support a microphone, so you'll have to remove it to talk on the phone. It's priced at $16.95, which seems a little expensive to me, but it's not like there's much in the way of choice. __________________ "I have no special talents, I am only passionately curious" - Albert Einstein Mike.Temporale.com

Nope. The 3125 has a thinner, flatter USB connector. The ExtUSB is almost like the regular miniUSB connector.

Freak that's annoying as hell. :evil: I'm really starting to like the fact that I'm not using an HTC device anymore. __________________ "I have no special talents, I am only passionately curious" - Albert Einstein Mike.Temporale.com

Tell me about it.

I have the 2125, it has regular miniUSB.
My wife uses the 3125, it has the flatUSB.
I now have the Dash, which uses the regular miniUSB for sync but has the ExtUSB for audio.
