HS U350 - Looks very good but why so hard to get ?

---

Hi,
I wanted to have an audio cable for HD which has an integrated mic with call button and a 3.5mm audio jack. I landed on this HTC original product HS U350 while googling around.

However in the US it looks like only expansys shows the listing and that too with an expected date of March 26. Does anyone have this audio cable. Care to share your experiences ?

Also let meknow where can I find it sooner if someone has the info.

Here's the only place where I could find it.

I'm looking for this item too.... seems xpansy swedish page has for shippment a few days earlier.

Buy this instead:

Costs next to nothing and works exactly the same without the HTC branding. The button still answers calls or dials - just like the original.
I got one the other day and am very happy with it... as I can use my own headphones and still use the button!

You can also change what you want the button to do by changing the redial.exe file in the Windows directory. I changed it so that a double tap runs voice command - so I can control everything by voice

Wow.. thanks for the reply. I see some other options as well which also has a volume control. So in general are the iphone 3.5mm jack accessories compatible with Touch 3.5mm jack ?

Also can u explain the quoted line. What do u exactly mean by changing the redial.exe ? Do u rename the application u want to work with the button as redial.exe in windows

Exactly!!

I think redial.exe is the default command thats called when you double press the button on your wired headset. I renamed whatever the msvc .exe file was called to redial.exe and now when I double press the button I get msvc.

I've tried a few specific iPhone wired headsets and they all seem to work - making me think that their all the same. I like my V-Moda set - but I wanted to be able to use my cheap over ear Sony ones for snowboarding so that they don't fall off - hence my purchase of the £2.30 adapter above!

btw, I ordered earlier HTC HS U110 3.5mm Audio Adapter Cable Stereo Headset, and it wasnt compactible with my HD, so I don't think all headsets are supported with this device. Placed an order for U350 headset on 17 Mar, still waiting

p.s. it is pricey

Anyone got their HS U350 yet?
Seems not shipped anywhere yet, and now it is 27th of march...

griffin also has one with mic for the iphone which matches the looks and works well with the blackstone...
