[Electronics-talk] where to find split headphones?

[Brent Harding]

I had emailed a guy who said they used to make one, but it was a custom 
order thing that he says he thought was discontinued. He said the other ones 
are computer on one side and RJ9 handset on the other for a phone. I had 
asked the people from the tech program I went to awhile ago where they used 
those for typing tests, and they told me that some students made a few pair 
a long time ago. That doesn't help me much because the program shut down, 
and nobody probably knows who the students were.
