Hi,
This unit from RNIB sounds quite nice but the price is somewhat high,
it seems to me. See, for example
http://www.jkaudio.com/products.htm
for similar products which can plug into the line-in of a sound card
or USB sound device. From there, of course, the cost to get a split or
integrated feed to headphones is not significant. I think that even
the £30 unit would work well if that is the only purpose, but there is
also a unit for £70 or so to which a headset can be connected. Routing
over VOIP would, of course, probably be even cheaper, at least up
front.

yep, you'd just use a doubler to plug it in like an extra phone i'm
guessing. either that or its an accessory for an existing phone.

Hi,

So I wonder if it steals one of the RENs from your phone line? This is
why we are looking at an alternative way of doing it.

All the best

Hello mike. No, it sounds like it has 2 inputs. The rj11 for your
phone then 1 to connect to the 3.5mm jack of your pc. Then you have
the output that the provided headset or your headphones plug in to.

Cheers,

Mo.

So...when it is plugged in to a PC does it appear as another audio
device, just like any other external sound card?
