I went to two stores today, and at both I looked for a small item I wanted to purchase, only to get blank stares from the young clerks.

I don't do well with earbud headphones. They don't fit well in my ears, and they fall out at the slightest movement. They do somewhat better when I cover them with those little stretchy foam covers. Have you tried to buy any of those recently? Long's Drugs sent me to WalMart, and neither had them.

I have seen them at Wal-Mart. I need some new ones myself.

Hey PG
The ones like you have pictured I can not wear at all... so I went looking for something a bit different
I found a set of JVC HA-FX33 that fit more like a set of ear plugs and they give a much better sound as well, I use them when mowing and weed eating and have never had a problem with them falling out.
Then part that goes in the ear is a very soft "rubber" and very comfortable.

I hope this will work for you

God bless...

I got the around-the-ear headphones for workouts, since the other ones fall out pretty easy.

I like those, but here's the catch: I want to use them with my iPhone, and the iPhone generic ones have a built in Mic on the right earbud wire... so you can click the little button and answer a call without touching the phone.

I would have assumed the iPhone had bluetooth and you'd just use a standard bluetooth headset (that has that same feature) In fact I though you had one last Assembly, will it not work with the iPhone?

Apples and Oranges, Bill.

I have a Bluetooth headset. When I am driving, I wear it. When the phone rings, I can touch the headset and accept the call, and end it the same way. The Bluetooth is not a headphone for listening to iPod-mode music, and, even if that were possible, I am not sure how good the quality would be, or whether I would like listening to one-channel/one-ear music.

The wired headphones are for listening to music while I am working around the office, walking through the mall while my wife shops, etc. If a call comes in, and I tap the switch on the right earbud wire, it pauses the music, accepts the call, and the wired headphones work like a wired cell phone headset... end the call and the song resumes play immediately.

Two different uses.

Sometimes it's easier to order them rather than trying to find what store carries them.

Are the ones you want listed here:

actually bluetooth headphones for music is rather old technology and available. I listen to music and seminars all the time on my blackberry - same thing - if the phone rings, that pauses automatically, and i touch the button to answer. hang up and continue listening.:

Okay -- I can understand maybe listening to a speech or podcast in one ear, but MUSIC?? No way.

I want the full stereo effect... two ears.

no, no - the one I choose to have is a single earpiece. most of them are dual either earpieces or headphones.
