Hi,
Still haven't heard about the headphones as yet.
Look forward to hearing from you.


Response 24/Sept/07 -

"I have just checked the contents of an 8800 we have in stock and it just has the regular headphone set (part no. HDW-12420-002). I can’t find any picture on this box or its contents regarding a stereo headset, and I don’t believe that I have noticed a stereo headset in any of the 8800’s, but the 8100 and the 8300 do come with one. Where did you see the description?"

Hi,

The information came from the blackberry forum webmaster. Apparently it's a standard item. Maybe they are shipping the wrong parts?
It seems idiotic to have a multimedia capacity and supply a mono headset. Hence the inquiry to blackberrys forum.


Their response - 25/Sept/07

I understand where you are comming from. I have checked their global website and they only list it as stereo headset capable. I guess they want to make some extra cash on accessory sales for this model.


Has anyone got a clue where to go from here?
Thoughts from the forum are welcomed.

Thanks
I too have just bought a 2.5 to 3.5 mm jack converter and a set of quite expensive Sony double bud ear phones, however I'm only getting sound out of one ear when plugged into my Blackberry 8830. I've check the ear phones on another device and they function extremely well out of both ear buds (sound is good). So why do I only get sound out of one ear when plugged into my BB 8830 ?
