I'm on ATT and looking for a new phone with built in mp3 player. I can't seem to find any with a standard headphone jack that I can just plug my sennheisers into and listen. I would really prefer a brick style phone, but would settle for anything (short of a blackberry) as long as I don't have to buy bluetooth heaphones or an adapter. Is there anything currently that meets these requirements? I don't want to switch networks.

They are pretty rare - and having spent about 15 minutes Google searching, they are hard to search for. :)

I haven't seen them on many phones, and all of the ones that I have seen were bigger and expensive phones. The Nokia N81, Nokia N95, Blackberry Curve, iPhone (recessed non-standard 3.5mm), all have 3.5mm jacks. Beyond that, I didn't have much luck searching for other phones with this feature.

I hear ya about not wanting to use adapters. I really don't like the fact that i have to use an adapter to get my shures to work with the iPhone.

Shame you said no to a BB. The Pearl 8110/20/30 all have 3.5mm Headphone jacks and take mSDHC cards. I use my Sennheiser CX300's with my BB and an 8Gb SD card and it's great solution, IMHO.

W580i come w/ the very small 3.5mm adapotor.
The stereo headphone that come w/ the package also in 3.5mm size.
Quite interesting little phone that you can shake the phone to change to previous song, or next song.

It can also annouce the name of the incoming caller.
It is quite inexpensive if you singing new contract.

Plus, it is quite easy to debrand the sony phone. So you don't get charge to access the data when you "accidentally" press the web button.

Thanks for the responses, I guess I'm going to have to suck it up and go with an adapter. I only say no to a BB because I already have one for work and i'm not carrying 2 around.

Yeah I think the adaptor will really resolve your issue. I bought and am using one thats really nice and simple. Pretty inexpensive too. Check it out and you can use coupon code: FREESHIP that they gave me with my order.
3.5mm Male to Male Adaptor

I know the link I gave you is to iPhone but the adaptor is universal. If you want their homepage here it is SummitImage
