Not really for the gym...

These look like they'd be great for running, but anyone using any kind of resistance machine or using free weights knows the back of your head rests against the bench on everything.

Too bad - if they dipped a bit lower to the base of the neck, they might actually be worthwhile.

I think the final one will work in the gym

They look like they would ride down at the base of the skull more than at the
back of the head where it would be fighting gravity and cause uncomfortable
tugging at the ears. If they were to design this to fit at the back of the head,
they'd be cutting out everyone with long hair and has a ponytail. It's a
Photoshopped product image anyway.

Wireless iPod headphones

These wireless headphones look pretty wacky! The idea of going wireless is very tempting.

I've tried the full size Sennheiser RS140 headphones - they are extremely good. Got them from Hifi Headphones (http://www.hifiheadphones.co.uk). Maybe it's time to give wireless iPod earphones a try...

They look ok but I'm not sure. Haven't heard good reviews about these headsets. Anyone have the JayBird <a href="http://www.jaybirdgear.com/jaybird-wireless-headphones-overview.php">Bluetooth wireless headphones</a>? They look pretty cool but want to do my homework before coughing up the $$. Looks like they have good reviews.
