All of you guys with Shure's will NOT work...Without some work!

You will need to take a sharp object (Exacto Knife) and taper the edges where the plastic is. That section is all plastic, so you are fine.

With some work, it fits!

Hey thanks for the tip. I just whipped out my Dremel while I was thinking about it and had a minute. My E4Cs fit great now. No need for that dorky $9 adapter they sell at the Apple Store.

Good tip, forgot about my dremel, lol.

I'm thinking that the primary reason for the recessed headphone jack is to protect the phone.
Rock on!

I don't know, being in the UK I haven't seen one yet , but I assumed the recess was to allow some extra contact for the remote button on the headset to work...
