Apple has been known to lock-out third party manufacturers from utilizing some of their device’s features and their Apple shuffle’s VoiceOver feature is no different. However, it look like one such manufacturer by the name of iLuv has licensed the technology thus gaining the ability to include it in their iEA15 adapter.
What this is is essentially a microphone touting adapter that lets you plug-in any headset you throw at it and still be able to use the shuffle’s VoiceOver technology. This is made possible as the adapter includes a “remote control chip provided by Apple, Inc.”. And, since it does have a microphone, you’ll be able to use it with your iPhone.
iLuv’s iEA15 adapter will most likely prove to be a highly sought after device but unfortunately for us, a price has to yet to be announced.

Most phones out there come with a regular 3.5mm jack ready to accommodate your favorite phones and bring your favorite music to your favorite ears. And when we say most phones we certainly don’t mean HTC phones. According to HTC a “vast majority of devices we launch after Hero” will be fitted with a nice, revolutionary, 3.5mm headphone jack. That standard feature is coming to future HTC phones so the company definitely deserves our applause for the day. We could use some insight on those future HTC handsets now that we know they’re not going to need a headphone adapter.

Remember the launch date of the T-Mobile G1? Everyone noticed how the first Android phone was promised to have access to lots of Amazon tracks and despite all that it failed to show a 3.5mm adapter. It looks like that whole problem has been finally solved. New G1s will get a 3.5mm headphone adapted for the ExtUSB port the phone comes with. That means you can get your headphones plugged into that free-of-charge adapter for some better quality music. What do you say? Will that make you buy a G1 today or are you sticking with the Storm?
