Page is working fine for me. Ho hum. And no, it's not awful, it's a pragmatic solution to not having to buy new headphones and not having to use a dongle - both of which were complained about :)

It's a $30 dongle that also needs to be charged. You can get a decent wired headset for $30.

What are you going to plug it into if your phone has no headphone socket?

This thread is -specifically- about when you -can't- plug your existing headphones into your phone.
