This is one of the best ipod accessory purchases I've made. The sound quality is better than my ibuds that came with the ipod, and I love not having a wire connecting me to my ipod. The initial pairing to my ipod and palm treo 800 was very easy and it works well for the most part. The only fault I have noticed is the transitioning after completing a call the headset sometimes doesn't transition back to the ipod without me unplugging and replugging the transceiver back into the ipod. This doesn't happen all the time, but I have noticed this happen more than once and I've own this headset for only about a week-I'm not sure if this is the headset or if it is my dumb phone, probably the phone as I have had numerous problems with the treo 800w. The headphones are very comfortable and the remote on the headset works great. You can pause, play, search, skip all from the headset- no problems with that. The range on the headset is about 15 feet depending on where you're at and the amount of interference in the area. The battery life is something that I haven't tested, but the manual suggests that it is 16 hours, but I highly doubt that. Everyone will have you believe that their product runs for double what it is capable of-the people at apple would like you to believe their ipods video will play for 6 hours, but in actuality it will run 3 1/2 to 4 hours on a full charge. But, overall the headset is great. I'm trying to figure out if I can pair it to my computer, so I can talk on skype. I'll have to tinker with it some more.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wireless headphones with tight control integeration for iPods, November 26, 2006

These wireless headphones are the best! The sound quality is just amazing and can't say how awesome the experience of not having the cords are. You also have full control over the iPod so you don't always have to reach over to simply pause or change a track. btw- I bought mine directly through the company's website and got free shipping too!

My wife gave me these for my b-day last week as she knows I love my iPod Nano. I've been using a mid-grade pair of in the ear type earbuds. I liked those as the sound is good and the foam plugs block out a lot noise. Since I use them when outside doing yard work (mowing, trimming) that is a plus. Since it's winter here now I don't know how well the iMuffs will work when I'm mowing and such. But even if I switch back to the foam earphones when mowing, there are many reasons I like the iMuffs for the other times.

-Being cordless is great. I've had the foam plugs pulled from my ears too many times and that isn't pleasant. I even run the cord inside my shirt, but it still would seem to get caught on things.

-Works great to control the iPod. No more digging in my pocket to skip, pause, adj volume, etc.

-Works well with my Razr. Although like someone else said, I have to tell my phone to search for the iMuffs, it isn't automatic. But that will be a very nice feature this summer when I'm out in the yard and my wife calls me. I always have my iPod playing and don't always feel the phone vibrate.

-Comfortable and lightweight. As others have said, it isn't adjustable but should work for most people I would think. It feels like it will stay put even for physical activities.

-Sound is very good. I don't have any buzzing or interference type noises. I would say the sound is inline with my $100 earbuds.

Negatives:

-Price. Not cheap, but these are more than just earphones.

-Bluetooth adapter will drain the battery faster. I'm also not sure how long the headphones will last on one charge.

Overall, these are very nice. I would like to give it 4.5 stars. I'm not giving it 5 because of the price and I don't think it will block external noise as well as my foam earbuds.
