Works well and replacement battery avail from APC

I have used APC supplies for many years. I switch on both the computer and CRT monitor together using a plug strip, so the battery backup must be able to handle the initial surge as the CRT monitor starts up. The APC battery backup can handle this when the AC line is powered; surprisingly some other brands cannot. APC now offers replacement batteries for sale, so you don't need to trash the battery backup when the battery wears out. The batteries generally last three to five years
What's great about it: Will handle brief overload required by CRT monitor startup
What's not so great: beeps when AC power is off - no switch to kill beeper
I would recommend this to a friend!

What are the most reasonable over the ear headphone for listening to Web Casts?
If just listening to voice, then the cheapest most comfortable pair you can find. If listening to music, then look at 'phones with good music reviews. You will pay more for decent sound.

Where can I buy headphones with a 2.5mm connector plug?
I have cell phone with a 2.5mm connector port for headphones but I can't find any headsets with that size plug. Everything is at least 3.5mm. If buying the headphones is not an option, is there a possibility that adapter kits are available?
I don't know of a headphone with that jack. However, Radio Shack sells an adaptor 274-004 "2.5mm cell to 3.5mm stereo", or 274-945 "3/32 stereo plug to 1/8" plug" that would let you use standard headphones. Hope this helps.
