I am looking for a headset for my phone. I cannot find what I'm looking for anywhere. Are you a bad enough dude (or dudess/ette) to help me? I have a Treo 680. I am looking for a headset that has the following:
2.5 mm jack. I do not want to also need an adaptor, which adds bulk and can be lost.
Over-ear or on-ear headphones for both ears. No earbuds (they don't work with my ears), clip ons, or behind the back of the head (the latter two pinch over time).
Boom microphone. It's not hands-free if you have to lift a little dangly microphone to your mouth.
Stereo.
My currentheadset does all of the above (on-ear, boom mic, 2.5 mm) but stereo, and it's now dying. It's also going on 10 years old and was originally designed in the age of cordless (not cellular) phones. Now that cell phones are here and have been for some time, it seems impossible to find a simple headset like this that I can use for both calls (hence the boom-mic) and for listening to music (hence needing both ears covered).
I would like to avoid Bluetooth, due to the additional power drain and the need for yet another charger.
