Comment on it if you have questions as it is a little vague at some points. It shouldn't be terribly difficult to do. http://www.motormayhem.net/2009/09/26/how-to-add-a-headphone-and-microphone-jack-to-a-phone/trackback/ Here is the writeup I did after looking into it a little.

This would be a nice thing to have as then you could plug the phone into a computer and use that to dial. I'll check it out and let you know what I find.

I saw this video on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tK4VlLsNxak with a guy demonstrating his phone. I thought he did it himself but he said no, that he bought it from some people and it was already like that. Then I found them for sale (we except that they are sold out) on this website: http://store.frillfreephones.com/ulrodiphflli1.html I don;t want to buy one for $120 though, I would just like to find out how to do it myself if possible!
