Lest we forget, Apple still makes a few products other than iPhone, and some of them are actually pretty good for things like listening to music. Until now, though, we just didn't recommend attaching the iPod to one's head as a public service.

Monster's "iFreePlay" seems to have gotten it right, in our opinion, by using the lightweight Shuffle to rescue its wearer from fashion victimization. The $60 headphones have an iDock built into their wraparound design for easy access as well as wireless liberation, according to Tech Digest. So if you've already purchased the previous-generation "iWalk" set, please throw them away.

now that's a nice piece of hardware! i may buy a shuffle just to get these headphones as well. how handy would that be at the gym? wouldn't have to mess with running the ear bud wire inside my shirt and fighting with it my whole workout.

nice.
