Here is a picture of a standard heaphone connector (on the left) and the one on Nokia's headphone w mic combo (on the right).

You know what? I did not even bother to look at the headset. I just put it in my draw as the Nokia phones are usually crap. Cool. I have a pair of Shure high-end phones when I decide not to take my iPod with me so I can look at vids or have music. Thanks for the heads up.

It is a pretty neat design. It is one of those things that makes you go "why didn't I think of that?"

My Netbook Pro has a port that can act as either a stereo audio out port or a monaural out plus microphone in port. It auto senses what you have plugged in, too!
