The iPhone Bluetooth Travel cable (pictured to the right) goes for \$29 as will a pair of replacement stereo headphones. The \$49 iPhone Dock (which may or not be the same one shipping with the iPhone) also includes an audio line-out jack.

As with the speakers, the headphones were plenty loud and crisp.A decent chunk of the cash you're sinking into the phone goes directly into its 5 megapixel autofocus Zeiss lens.

But sharing samples of songs, a bit of video, or -- duh -- YouTube now instantly necessitates friends adventurous enough to use your funky headphones each taking a turn watching Chocolate Rain or the Hipster Olympics. We know in the long run it's a relatively minor thing, but it's still disappointing.

The results are actually kind of surprising: while it looks like a bunch of third-party headphones are out, most iPod accessories seem to work, although the iPhone isn't exactly happy about it -- it pops up a warning and offers to put itself in airplane mode so you don't hose your speakers with GSM signal noise. Ah, so that's what that patent application was for.

Sporting a behind-the-neck, foldable design, the 63-gram headphones come in black or white motifs, support A2DP, AVRCP, HFP, and HSP protocols, and boast a built-in microphone and control button in the earcup to pull double duty as a handsfree communicator. Aside from the receive / end call button, users can expect to control audio playback functions from the side of their dome, and considering the respectable 11-hour battery life, finding an AC outlet shouldn't become too much of an issue.

The i277BLK (pictured after the break) features an LCD display, docking cradle for your dock-connecting iPod, built-in track / volume controls, AM / FM tuners, digital clock with dual-function alarms, wireless remote, AV output, dock adapters, twin three-watt jAura speakers, and an A2DP-compliant BluePin audio transmitter / receiver to receive tunes from any BT-enabled device or listen in with your Bluetooth headphones. The i199BLK ups the ante by including a CD / MP3 disc player, USB port for thumb drive input, ID3 tag support, and a larger, more descriptive LCD panel.

This wired / Bluetooth device provides a wired set of headphones and a microphone that you connect to your 'Pod, while the integrated Bluetooth module syncs with your handset. Upon receiving an incoming call, the tunes are halted and the incoming number even shows up on your iPod's screen, quite similar to how the original ROKR functioned, except we're adding an external DAP.

Besides the sliding boom, this model might look like a regular over the ear unit at first glance, but a detachable cord with an earbud at the end allows the 855 to perform double-duty as A2DP-compliant headphones -- great for those of us trying to downsize from the normally-bulky earpieces offered by iLuv, Bluetake, and friends. You're also getting the all-critical AVRCP profile here as well, so the only real downside seems to be the price: sounds like it'll be retailing for around \$200 when it hits later this month, although we've already seen street prices ranging from \$80 to \$150

Includes a pair of comfortable padded full-size headphones. Requires one 9-volt battery (not included).

The most impressive feature is the fact that the World’s Tiniest MP3 Player weighs less than one ounce! The headphones, which are included with your purchase, weigh as much as the 2GB MP3 player as well. You can take it with you to the gym, office, hiking, or any other activity and you’ll forget you are even wearing it save the fact that you’ll have CD quality sound playing in your ears

Other retailers are selling the same type of headphones for \$300 and more, yet for hundreds less you get the same benefits. Our headphones will curtail noise of up to 18 decibels and impede input by 32 ohms.

Most of us tend to ditch the standard pair of headphones that come with our iPods, investing a little bit extra for that upmarket pair of earbuds to give us a better bang for our buck. Unfortunately, most people these days equate loudness with the quality of a pair of earbuds, and younger folks tend to crank the volume all the way up while rocking to the latest Top 40 hits.

Voice calls sound crystal clear on the Nokia 770, but until Nokia releases BlueTooth headset support you are limited to using the built-in speaker (or headphones) and the built-in microphone. I could live with using headphones but I've had people tell me there's a ton of background noise when I am in a noisy place.
