Sporty's has just an adapter in their catalog.

Another answer is to switch to something like the Lightspeeds
that have a separate jack for on the control unit that feeds
into a cell phone plug.

Have fun getting GSM to work at altitude.

I'd be surprised if the GSM worked at any altitude above pattern
altitude.

Hey gang,
It probably wont work in the air of course that being said mine
started ringing at 11,000 ft yesterday above nashville in the t210. I
was amazed of course we were moving so fast that we lost that tower in
seconds but if you have a helicopter it might work. Cell towers all
point down because thats were the people with the electric leashes are!
Sportys does have that adapter but you can probably get the same from
radio shack for nothin. This all being said I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU DO
NOT USE YOUR PHONE IN THE AIR!!!!! Not because it is gonna screw with
nav radios or anything but because you will be not concentrating on
what you need to be concentrating on and that is flying the air plane.
Please do not turn into the idiot in his car that is screwing up
traffic because he is on the phone driving. "hang up and drive now
applies to hang up and fly!!!!"

Ah, come one. At FL110 in the 210, you simply aren't busy all the time.
In fact, with the autopilot on, you're way less busy than any time in a
care.

I read your original post. If you can live with hearing ATC and the cell at
the same time, without priority for ATC, there's a solution for about $15
which I have used very successfully. Get an earpiece for you phone that has
the microphone built into the earbud. These may be a little hard to find
now because the bomm variety is all the rage. Jabra used to make one which
came with different colored earpieces to customize the fit in your ear.
Just slide that under the cup of your headset. The sidetone in your headset
transmits the voice well. I used this setup in Canada where cell phone use
in the air is legal.

According to a Lightspeed note, it says the "FCC only allows the use
of a cell phone within the cockpit when the plane is on the ground".

It is irrelavant what Lightspeed says.
