This is possibly an argument for them *not* supplying an adapter and 
letting it be the user's responsibility.

Reselling an adapter is a courtesy -- they've tested it, they know it 
talks to the radio.  The driver is the adapter manufacturer's 
responsibility. But if this seems likely to lead to bad feelings or 
finger pointing, then they should leave it up to the user to get an 
adapter if needed.
