Hi. Does the Iphone let you use standard walkman earbuds or do you need to
use something with a proprietary plug? Thanks.

I'm not sure what you mean by "actual work". Like any new
device, it takes getting used to and using it. In doing so, you find
ways of getting tasks done. At this stage, those of us who have
iPhones are learning and exploring and becoming confident and
proficient with them. I'm going to try this shortly, but I think one
can check weather and make appointments while on a call.
Additionally, I have no idea why a big deal is being made about using
a headset. The earphones that come with the iPhone are not at all
clumsy or awkward. Also, as has been mentioned, there are other ways
around the issue of the screen being locked during a call, which, as
far as I can tell, has not slowed the rate of sales of the device in
the market place.
