    I found this Nokia 2.5mm to 3.5mm adaptor that lets you listen to music, but doesn't support calls, and this 2.5mm to 3.5mm adaptor that lets you listen to music and take calls.

    I'd be willing to pay extra for peace of mind as, going by a user's comments, the item you linked to doesn't seem to have the best build quality.

    Well, nothing makes you more happy when you don't have to resort to original accessories and pay a little...


    Cons: ...but flimsiness of the construction makes you worry about the quantity of items which you have to buy before your patience says: no more.


    Other Thoughts: I have a couple of these items and not only they differ in cable size (circumference) but also they suffer from flaws in design. All of them got broken within three weeks of use which was caused by the cable slipping out of the strain relief section of either side of the cable.

    Well i take that point but anything on DX is not going to be perfect quality, but the other one could brake just as easy.
