If the headset is damaged you can still listen to the radio through the external speaker(s).


But, unless i misunderstood your previous post you said the radio was inside the headset - meaning the actual radio hardware was contained in the headsets remote. If you damaged the headset, or use a standard headset like a HPM-70, would the radio still work.. ?

Perhaps we should try a common language, like English.

I think the remote control is glued to the headset cord (at least it looks like that) meaning you can not use it with HPM-70. It depends what you mean with broken headset. The ear plug can be broken while the remote controls is fine and hence can still be used with the external speaker (I assume its possible since there seem to be a bidirectional communication path).

I should point out this is just my guessing. But I guess you have already guessed that.

The radio is placed in the remote control, not in the phone itself (as for K750). So it is probably a simpler solution (probably lacking RDS, not sure).


You made it sound like the actual radio hardware is built inside the headset remote, rather than inside the phone. If the remote on the headset became damaged (not the earbuds), the radio might stop working.

I dont see why SE would put the radio hardware inside the remote..

agree etaab....why after K700/K750/W800, would they take it out and put it in the headset remote? Unless to conserve space for umts?

Backwards step for a walkman phone to NOT have an inbuilt radio. I doubt it's the case.

Is this actually true about the radio hardware being contained inside the remote, or is it just Arne Anka's guess ?

I cannot be bothered to research whether its true or not, i dont really have the time these days with work to stay up to the minute exact with details..

I feel the same way. there are only so many google searches you can do in response to wild claims on esato

Doesn't worry me anyway, I'll be skipping the W900 altogether.
