Summary: Works as promised, generally well. 2008-09-03
Comment: This adapter works as promised. The sound quality is good. I have no complaints about how the product functions. However, it is slightly bulky and the 90 degree bend in it seems to cause strain on the jack inside the treo. It has not caused any problems for me yet, but I am concerned that it might break something later.

Summary: Too bulky, comes loose, there are better options... 2008-08-24
Comment: I have a Treo and my wife has a Centro.
I like the ease of use of the Palm devices and they do make good MP3 players. I use mine with headphones and in my car.
I have this particular "right angle" adapter and I don't like it. It is very bulky and always comes loose as it swings around. This type of adapter is best if you are not moving your Treo/Centro around such as if you are jacking it into a sound dock. I would give this Palm right angle adapter one star for effectiveness but since it does have good build quality I give it two stars. Alot of third party adapters have very poor build quality.
The other Palm version on Amazon is way better, "Palm 3397WW Stereo Headphone Audio adapter". This version doesn't come loose, especially with headphones if you are moving around. The best adapter I've found so far for my Treo and Centro. A few bucks more but well worth it...I gave this one four stars (would have been five stars but price is a bit high).

Comment: I still love my old Treo 600 !!
It may be old but it does everything I need it to do !
With an SD card loaded Podcasts and OGG's and MP3's I use the PalmOne 92590PLMIN Stereo Headphone Adapter and a standard set of headphones, I can have my all in one entertainment device.
I don't leave home with out my PalmOne 92590PLMIN Stereo Headphone Adapter, EVER !

Summary: Works For Me 2008-07-21
Comment: It's a simple device that converts the small stereo jack into a normal headphone one. Not much to go wrong with it. You do need to be careful to insert the connecting headphone jack into it firmly - otherwise you'll get audio out of the left side only. Common problem - other designs have the same issue due to the nature of the connector. I could understand some of the other complaints about the stiff 90 degree connector causing damage if bumped hard. I take gentle care of my Treo 755p, so it's not an issue for me. Frankly, I would have appreciated having either ends connected with a flexible cable to make it easier to plug in and out, and a bit more streamlined with space, but that's more of a nit-pick.

Summary: It works 2008-06-15
Comment: This "stereo headphone adapter" takes 3.5mm female 3-conductor (stereo, same as most headphones) to 2.5mm male 3-conductor (stereo, same diameter as the Treo 600, 700 series jacks). The Treo's jack is actually a 4-conductor (two stereo audio out, one mono audio in (for microphone), one ground), but this adapter just ignores the mono in conductor. Altogether, this allows your Treo audio out (but not audio in) to work with standard headphones. Yeah.
As previous reviewers have said, the product works and has good sound quality, but the form factor is flawed. The adapter's rigid design puts a lot of pressure on it and on your Treo's jack when it's in use. It would be better if it had a short, flexible cord between the male and female ends.
