Hi all,

I've been looking for a 2.5mm male to 3.5mm female adapter for my VX8360 so I can plug into my computer speakers. I actually had the chance to try the adapters sold at Radio Shack and Best Buy right in the stores, but both of them only played one channel (yes, believe it or not, both stores actually took the time to help me!)  I'm pretty much out of options other than ordering some random one on eBay that probably won't work.  Does anybody know where else I can look for this?  Thanks.

Ahh, I think what is happening is that the plastic around the Headphone Jack on the 8360 is actually restricting how far you can push the Head phone adapter into the phone, thus only going in far enough to connect with one Channel and so your are only hearing one side of the music...  I saw this on another device I had and my temp solution was to take an Xacto knife and CAREFULLY trim the plastic surrounding the adapter making it skinnier so it would fit past the plastic housing of the phone and it worked for me.  I don't know why they make them so fat in the first place, but it is inconvenient...  Let me if you can loacte a "Skinniny" adapter.
