Title: Great sound, kooky design
Review: I found these when I was looking around for a new pair of in-ear headphones (my Sony Fontopia's cable broke - again). I was also looking out for a cellphone headset, and so I saw this and decided it had to be good. Now that I've got it, I can say that it *is* good - in some respects. The sound quality is everything Shure is cracked up to be - clean, clear, and crisp. The downside comes in the integration of the two functions - the two leads (to MP3 player and cellphone) are inequal in length for some reason, and the junction/switch box between them is pretty huge - it also contains a nigh-useless volume control, which despite being a dial, seems to have only two settings - regular, and extremely quiet.In any case, they work for my needs - but if you're planning to jog with them, or keep your MP3 player more than about 8 inches from your phone, you're out of luck. Remember, if a combo device costs *less* than either one of its components, something's probably wrong.
