I wish I had information to contribute, but alas, I'm N810-less...

YARR!

Sure - just someone who knows what they're doing let me know what to do, e.g. "buy this cable from here (or better buy one for me ), run this command/post this log file output" etc and I'll be happy to oblige


Incidentally - the low-end in-ear earphones by Sennheiser (about £30-40 high street price, the ones with the black rubber domes) are a great match for the N810.

If you haven't already replaced the total-waste-of-time Nokia freebies, I'd recommends these as the ones to go for as to my taste, this combo sounds great at all volumes with no need for any EQ (which is good because none is available in any of the maemo media players AFAIK?)

(fair enough, including throwaway headphones increases the manufacture cost by only a few cents, so you might as well, but why-oh-why didn't they make them interchangeable at the mic/remote?? what a waste... )

Just like the 770 though, plug in something a bit more serious like a Shure e5c and the sound all goes into the midrange with harsh/overly bright treble - much like a clock-radio kind of speaker - but the Senn's fat/quite uncontrolled bass-iness offsets the tight-but-light bass of the N810, and kind of reigns in the harsh treble - end result is very nicely balanced sound IMO, especially for the price (better than the same phones driven by for example iTunes+iMac internal sound card, which sounds excessively boom-y to me).

Been listening to a lot of last.fm in Vagalume at work with this setup - very happy with it this way - and so much easier to untangle myself (than something like the e5c) when someone comes over with a question or something
