Gregg,

The standard jack for telephone handset cords is an RJ-9. Along with
2.5mm and 3.5mm headset jacks, I'd like to see the RJ-9 included in the
list of acceptable audio connection points. Thanks,

-- Paul Michaelis

The suggestions should have used the word LOCATED not USED.



Here it is with the word LOCATED in the first bullet (and "as
follows:"
added to the header to connect it all







2.2-C - Audio Connection

When products provide auditory output beyond simple tonal feedback or
signaling, the audio signal must be provided at a standard signal level
through an industry standard connection that will allow for private
listening as follows:

* Products designed to be located in public places must provide
the
connection via a standard 2.5mm or 3.5mm audio jack at the standard
signal levels used for headphones/headsets.
* All other products can use any connection method as long as long
as
a 2.5mm or 3.5mm phone jack adapter is available from the manufacturer
or commonly available.
