Default ***headset Alert For Pearl!!***

Please Login to Remove!

I came across this gem over at Best Buy this afternoon and this little thing works perfectly!!

ONLY $7.44 (straight up regular price!!)

Kyocera - Accessories -- Kyocera cell phone accessories


It is located in their cell phone section where they display the Virgin Mobile phones etc.

There are several buttons on the controller that do not work with the Pearl obviously because it was designed for a sepecif phone. However., the PLAY/STOP button DOES work to play and stop movies AND mute phone conversations.

I tested incoming calls while playing movies and it works great!

Also it comes with a detachable 3.5 mm headset for "regular" use. This also means you can attach ANY of your own headsets and use the mic feature with it!

Cant beat the price folks and it works!

Sounds great, wish I could buy one myself. I'm over here in Iraq so there's no best buy for me. I just bought an adapter online so I could use normal headphones with my pearl. It was only 7 bucks and I didn't wanna pay $14 for an adapter with a mic. I'll just wait until I get back to get one with an adapter.

You wanna hook a soldier up with one?

No need to go around searching for me. Like I said, I bought one without the mic online yesterday so I will just make do with that. Thanks for the thought though.

Do the headset controls work with the music player?

All it allows is to Pause/Play in the media player and to Mute/UnMute/Answer during a call.

Thanks, I just picked up 2 for $5.95 each

BB has 20% off phone accessories right now.

I am using my iPod earbud 'phones and they sound a little better, I'm not too sure about the outgoing voice quality yet though..

I went to my local Best Buy and couldn't locate these...=( I'll try the next closest store tomorrow.

edit: nothing...I guess the Best Buys around here don't carry them. Bummer. I guess I'll have to get them on eBay for like $14

okay, I realize that this is an older post, but I'll ask my question anyway. After having this headset for a couple of months now, are they comfortable? I hate the oem headsets that come with mp3 players and phones, they're never as comfortable as "nice" headsets. Let me know. Thanks.
