Headphone Mic combo for Mac Air
2010 January 24
I was looking at the Apple Earphones with Remote & Mic (http://www.amazon.com/Apple-Earphones-with-Remote-Mic/dp/B001NABJ56) wondering if they would work with my Mac Air. I often travel with my Air and would like to be able to easily make phone calls using Skype. Typically I use my headphones and the Air’s internal mic. However, it would be nice to be able to have a headset that was very small and portable that didn’t pick up ambient noise.
So I’m wondering if anyone knows if the iPhone headphone/mic combo would work if I plugged it into my Air? If not does anyone have another suggestion of a very small headset I could use for this purpose?
Well this is a tad late, but it should – I plug my iPod Touch headphones into my PC and the mic works fine. Hope that helps.
Thanks, Kaylin. Someone else confirmed this as well and I bought a pair to use on my next trip.
