Four Pairs of Wireless Headphones http://fashion-week.net/?p=945... I lack the coordination needed to operate a keyboard and mouse while tethered to my computer by the wire on my headphones. To protect my laptop from being thrown across the room by a careless jerk of my head, I invested in a pair of wireless headphones, the Sony IF140s (pictured right), about 10 years ago. They had an infrared transmitter that plugged into a standard headphone jack, which sent a signal to the wireless headphones. They were powered by a rechargeable AA battery, the charger for which was conveniently located in the transmitter. All in all, it was a simple useful design that was comfortable and effective for office use. I wish I still owned a pair.

Laptops - Notebooks - Laptop Computers - Desktops » Blog Archive » Ultimate Buds UB7 http://desktopcomputer.freehostia.com/2007/12/1... If you can't bear to ditch your iPhone earbuds, Ultimate Buds makes use of them by splicing them onto Etymotic's excellent ER6i earbuds to create the UB7. The very discreet mic module clicks when you squeeze it, answering and ending calls and pausing music. The earbuds are very compact, and the cable should be sufficient unless you're unusually tall. The UB7--which you can get cheaper if you send the company your iPhone earbuds--comes with extra foam and silicone tips, a shirt clip, extra filters, a cleaning tool, and a carrying pouch. The silicone tips are a little uncomfortable, but they block plenty of noise. We could hear the cable jostling against our body, but it wasn't overly distracting.
Convert any headphones into an iPhone headset. http://desktopcomputer.freehostia.com/2007/12/1... Shure's Music Phone Adapter (MPA) is our favorite iPhone solution, since it lets you use the headphones you're most comfortable with. It has an iPhone-compatible jack at one end and a microphone module with an Answer/End/Pause button and a female 3.5mm audio jack for connecting to your own headphones. We connected the adapter to the Shure SE110 in-ear headphones, whose cabling is modular; the top half is fairly short, so when used with the adapter, the cable is the right length, but the mic lays around your navel. The MPA comes with three different sizes of foam and silicone tips and a carrying pouch. Shure's coated memory-foam tips are the most comfortable on the market, and they stay in your ear securely--especially if you wear the cables over the tops of your ears.

The stereo earphones, MX W1, from Sennheiser now have their presentation round at the CES behind them. A distinctive feature of the earphones is easily recognisable. The two smart earplugs are equipped with a tiny transmitter. The transmitter is only as big as a matchbox, but replaces the often burdensome cables.
