HTC W100 Wired Remote Control - cable length?

[MR Bacardi]

I consider buying a HTC W100 Wired Remote Control, but I cannot seem to find the length of the cable between the USB and the actual remote.
I was hoping someone here has the remote control, and are able to tell me approximately how long the cable is?

[soggybiscuit]

yeah i wouldnt mind knowing as well...

also what is the diff between the E100 and the W100?

and is there a mic on the remote?

Yes there is a mic.

e100 comes with crappy head phones i believe, the w100 i purchased doesn't come with head phones

the cable is.. i don't know the measurements i dont have it on me right now, but i can attach the remote to my collar just under my neck and then put my device in my front pants pocket and still have a bit of length left on the cord.

now, the headphones im using are wrapped up really short because those are so long.

I got it yesterday. Cablelength is about 1 meter.
But... what is disappointing is that it will only work with the built in mediapleyer on my Tytn II. When hitting the 'play' button it always starts mediaplayer (or the derived HTC version)
Does anyone have a solution for this? I want to use it with coreplayer.
