I have read in literature where these headphones are SKYPE compatible. I have a Thinkpad that still has the mic and speakers on different 3.5mm posts. I am willing to buy the 2 X 1 3.5mm passive cable if that would allow support of these headphones to support the SKYPE 4.2 Windows software. Is the support professed include the ability to answer calls with the buttons like what I suspect works with the IPhones or does this "compatibility" exclude that ability?
