Hmm. I have no problem with the minijack for phones... Just thought  
I'd pipe in to say that my SD 744 is the perfect place to use the one  
pair of phones I have whose 1/4" adaptor went missing. The minijack  
is perfectly serviceable and rugged enough for pro use, in my  
opinion... and haven't waled away with cans on on many years,  
especially when the machine is over my shoulder... Stepping on the  
cord, well, now there's a thing to watch out for!
