Maybe I'm just spoiled by the T68i's MP3 player, but does anyone else seem to notice that the MP3's played from the P800 sound muffled and lacking in treble when played using the headset?

Probably.


Too odd though, these same MP3 files were crisp and clear on the HPM-10

well. i have to admit that the sound on the included headset is crap. i used an adapter to try another pair of headphones and the p800 sounded fantastic. i cant wait for the new fm radio. i hope the sound is better on that headset.

cheers
from my p800 via BT to ADSL! This is so cool!

Sounds fine to me... although the included headsets suck... too bad, I was hoping for rebranded SONY headphones.

Anyway, the only thing I find dumb is that I can't play MP3s with the flip closed!!!!

This means I can't play MP3s with the phone in my pocket!!! That's stupid. I don't want to hold the phone and stare at it the whole time I'm listening to my music!!! I want to replace my MP3 player on my hip with my P800. I hope someone comes up with a better audio player than the one built in. Something w/ basic EQ maybe? And playlist functionality?

I'm looking for a small converter that'll allow me to use a regular headset with the phone. Preferably, of course, with forward/back controls.

Does anyone sell such a thing?

You can get an adapter from many electronic stores that is 2.5mm male on one end and 3.5 mm female on the other end. I have one and it works fine for stereo sound with a normal headphone jack..you will loose be able to answer the phone with your headphones on, but you'll have to speak into to p800 microphone. I think that is the best we can do for the moment.
