Before Christmas I was speaking with two colleagues and recent iPhone adopters about headphones. They were examining my <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Sony-MDR-EX71SLA-Fontopia-Bud-Style-Headphones/dp/B000JKHXPQ/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1231211983&sr=1-3">Sony MDR-EX71s</a> (white, short cable) connected to <a href="http://www.griffintechnology.com/products/smarttalk">Griffin SmartTalk</a>. I mentioned the SmartTalk gives third-party headphones a button and microphone. I was asked if you could answer calls with the button to which I said, "yes, it does all the same things as the included headphones". To which the reply was, "the included ones have a button?". Yep they certainly do.

Plug in the headset to listen to music or a phone call. Callers hear you through the headset microphone. Click the mic button to control music playback and answer or end calls, even when iPhone is locked.</blockquote>
