Two way cord for swapping Mob handsfree or mp3 player?
Guys,

I have a good 1gb mp3 player and a basic mobile. Now, while riding, i listen to moozik, but its a nuisance if someone calls, esp persistently. Now, riding with handsfree in one ear and mp3 earphone in another ear is not fun.

I was thinking - is there any way that there is a two way audio cord with switch?
Something that allows me to flip a button and move to handsfree from mp3 when a call comes.

Any ideas?

PS: No, I don't wanna spend 6400 bucks just to get a phone which plays mp3s like the nokia 5200.

O.T.: ^^No idea, but don't ever think again of buying a Nokia 5200, its one of the worst music phones i've seen. My friend bought it just 2 months back and the on-board loudspeaker plays like a fata baans..though with handsfree it gives reasonably okay sound.

best music while on road is that of engine revving in delight to get attention! buy yourself a Yoshimura!

Hitachi(cool dude) bhai ... music or phone while riding is no no .
Use earplugs and see the difference total silence .
when u have to attend a call; pull the bike to side and attend the call .
Few minutes to spare is worth it...unless you are ironing ur butt .

Use ur engineering brain
You can mke one. Will be a little messed up. Take the two connectors for the phonone jack and mps headphone. take a three way toggle switch. Connect one end to the headphone and connect wires to it. Connect phone at one end and mp3 on other. When u get a call, just flip the switch. . You will need three connection points at phone end for mic

A 3-pole 2-way toggle switch should do it. Could also be a slide or rotary switch.
