The adapter works well, but it does not fit my needs. I needed a mic to insert between my 1st gen iPod touch and my noise-reducing (non-Apple) ear buds. The setup is working, but the resulting cord tangle is just too long, and the mic needs to be clipped to something near my mouth. Until I find better quality earbuds with built-in mic, I'll have to settle for the Apple buds that do not stay in my ears.

As long as it works, it's as good as it gets, it looks and feels good, easy control, nicely clicking button.
Although I had read several negative reviews on the build quality, I gave it a try. Within a week the cable kink issue showed up and I had no sound coming from my right earbud any more.
Besides, the chromium on the plug got loose, making the sound volume for the left earbud change with the rotation of the plug.
So: not worth spending any money on until they come up with a better plug.

Well, I saw the reviews that complained about the durability (or lack thereof) of this item. However it has been my experience that many people complaining about durability are really abusing their products. I discovered that this was not the case this time...mine lasted about four months before going intermittant.
What a shame because it had worked very well up to that point. The system for pausing, skipping forward and back worked fairly well (skipping back was tough to master), the cable was the right length, I had no problems with volume and intelligibility with the mic. In all a good performing unit.
But I do treat my things VERY carefully, headphones, etc. last longer in my care than with most people, this died rather eaily. so be careful, I am going to try the monster cable version of this item to see if that lasts longer.

The SmartTalk is definitely a good addition to an iPod touch, which unfortunately still lacks a microphone. The button on the SmartTalk works as promised, and the microphone quality is quite good. Voice Memos in OS 3.0 sound excellent, and Skype works great too.
On the downside, for most headphones with a normal-length cable, adding the SmartTalk makes the headphone cable too long. Having a 5 - 6 foot long headphone cable gets to be a pain, especially while walking around or taking the train, etc. I've yet to find an effective way to deal with the long cable. On other headphones with long cables, I coil up the part of the cable closest to the headphone jack of the iPod. But with the SmartTalk, because the microphone jack is on the end of the cable towards the device, if you coil up that end of that cable, the microphone gets to be too far away from you to pick up what you're saying. Coiling up the part of the cable closer to the headphones looks awkward and everything gets tangled.
As other reviewers have commented, the plug also has some problems. If it gets bumped or turned in the headphone jack -- which happens a lot when your iPod/iPhone is in your pocket -- the music can unexpectedly pause, or start playing again. It gets extremely annoying after a while.
If you need a mic for your iPod touch, or want to use your own headphones with your iPod, the SmartTalk is useful, but you probably shouldn't plan on having it attached to your device all the time.

I use this product as the reliable way to speak and listen to music on my iphone.
Non powered means unlike blutooth options they are always ready to go.
Mic works well and very cost effective.
