I do have earphones with a button, and the button already works to start and stop my music and skip to the next track (with two presses). But sometimes it gets delayed for up to 5 seconds (for reasons I've never understood). If Pressy can fix that then great. But if it can't then there are going to be a lot of disappointed backers out there.

One of my long-term disappointments with Android is that they never used the modified plug the iPhone uses that also allows for volume control. But then, Apple may have patented it.

I wonder if people that are interested in only the App to have their Headphones buttons remapped comfortably will be able to acquire that, and for what price. Not that I have done any research on Apps that already do that, since as I said, my headphones don't have a button. :)

You are correct. Apple did indeed patent it. I don't remember the source but distinctly remember reading that Apple had gotten just such a patent.

Not that all manufacturers seem to care since I have a handful of Nokias that do the same thing...

I guess you also don't own any keys or a keychain then too? Since it comes with a keychain "fake audio jack" to hold pressy when not in the audiojack

I do, but I still do not see a use case for me. When I'm on the go, I am almost always listening to music.

Why so sad?
