Ah found disapointment. Integrated Microphone, headphone jack not available. Not separated for that matter bt I knew that before ordering. I guess I can use my bluetooth headset however I cant used my paypal/squareup card reader. :-(
 
My 3.5mm headset w/ Mic from my Galaxy Tab works with Skype. Just did a test call. Unless it picked up an internal mic without me knowing?
 
How is that relevant? This is the Google Nexus 7 Tablet Forum so one should assume we are talking about Google Nexus 7 Tablets.

yes but he/she is talking about headphones working ont he tab when we want to know about headphones working on the n7

He says "from my Galaxy Tab", meaning he took them from his Galaxy Tab.

Edit: Forgot to add that it's been confirmed that the headphone jack is not mic-capable.

Edit: Just tested it myself. I moved my N7 2 feet away and spoke softly into my in-line mic and it worked exactly as I spoke it.
"Voice to text test"

The internal mic is actually quite sensitive and that's what picked up your voice. It's been confirmed that the Nexus 7 doesn't have the proper jack to support mic input.

Mic input requires a TRRS jack and the Nexus 7 only has a TRS jack.
