[gps-talkusers] Re: traffic noise, speakers

The dongle comes with a sub mini jack, which allows it to plug into a cell 
phone headset/mic jack. One needs an adapter to convert this plug to the 
standard mini jack on the BrailleNote. If you use a straight adapter, it is too 
long and could create a lever on the jack. Instead, a short cable adapter works 
much better.
