Nokia Music headset HS-20, AD-41

Hi, I'd like to know if the Nokia Music headset HS-20, AD-41 works well with the N73 (not music edition). I can't see why not except for the fact that its not listed as compatible on Nokia's site, so I'd like a bit of reasurrance before I buy one.
Also I'd like to know how comfortable it is to use if anyone here uses the headset on a regular basis. My main concern is the fact that the earphones can be easily disconnected from the 3.5 mm connector in the middle. Is this an issue?
Thanks a lot

It does work, its just a regular pop-port type connection.

As for sound quality and comfort, everyones experiences with headphones are totally different, what is comfortable for me could be excrutiatingly painful for you.

I use the AD-41 with my N73ME and it works great. However, the HS-20 earplugs that come with it are very lame, so I personally use A pair of Creative EP630 earphones which are superb 😃

I have also successfully used the AD-41 in conjunction with a Belkin Tunecast II FM transmitter so I can use the phone in my car using the head unit.

Got the AD-41 today but failed it get it working properly. None of the controls on it would work and when I press the button underneath the Nokia logo, it makes strange noises. Am disappointed...

Everything works but the controls.

I might re-install the firmware though. It's been weird lately.

Yes, worth a try. It should just be "Plug & Play" with all controls working fine. I sue mine for my earphones and also in my car via an FM Transmitter.

Got a feeling it might be fake. It looks tacky and about to fall apart. It did work for a very brief 5 mins tho.
