WH-205 earbuds fall out and lost!!
 
Does anyone out there know what sort of earbud will fit the N900 standard one? I have lost mine yesterday, one of them fall out and I don't know where I lost it.

Now I am left with an earbud on just one side.

Where do I get the replacement?

Regards,

You talking about the little white rubber (latex, soft plastic) pieces that go over the earphone speakers?

You should have gotten a few extra ones with your N900.

yeah that latex thingy. Yes I got 2 extra pairs but all of them are different size. There are 3 size, Large, Medium, and small.

Which I can't use the Large or Small. The medium is what I need.

i wouldn't get those because i had the same issue. i went to best buy to get new headphones but i use mine as earplugs when studying and those little things don't do the justice for blocking sound interference around you.

seach the model number for the headphones on ebay and you should be able to buy the exact same headphones with the earpieces along with it for less than 10 bucks from hong kong

lol I think UK is more closer to HK. NZ is at the bottom of the world. We see different stars while the Europe see different one. I can still see Mars here. That thing is moving a way slowly.

Anyway, i might just buy some cheapy one and take the tips to use on my N900 one :D but right now my N900 won't like my WH-205 jack.
It won't even detect it. The stupid bug might get fixed in PR1.2

I'm in Australia and bought some on ebay from Hong Kong. Very reasonable price and postage (<$10 IIRC).

Buy me some and I'll send the money over :D

Stupid NZ is too isolated from the rest of the technology world. Every new technology will take atleast 6month to 1year to get to NZ. And we have to pay more than other country even for 6months old technology.

nice find.. The problem is I don't have Credit Card lol, or payPal account.
So buying is a bit hard for me. Would be nice if this is a DC banking instead.

Edit: I bought another N900 headphone already. Since my old one stopped working with the N900 somehow. So may be the new one fixed this issue as well.

You can add money into your paypal account from your bank account (savings etc). I do it all the time as I too don't have a credit card. Only problem is it takes about 5 days to get the money transferred over. :)
