Conclusion

Overall, the Seidio adapter is a brilliant little dongle that does what it's supposed to do and is most welcome (and necessary) for those of you with broken audio ports. It could use a little re-thinking, especially regarding covering up the power jack, which serves no purpose, but it does work as advertised.

Addendum (added 12 June, 2006)..
Editor's note - due to a reassignment of the audio-out pin on the new Treo 700p, the original version of this device here will NOT work with the 700p and no audio will come out of its 2.5mm jack. This was not known at the time of this review. Check to make sure you are getting the revised version of this product that does work with the 700p before you order one.. Harv..) ..
