Excellent timing. I needed a couple of sets so I snagged two. Thanks!

Thanks, picked them up at Amazon. Have been unhappy with my current headphones and have been looking for a deal on something a little more high end.

I'll be honest and say that I have never tried anything other than included headphones. I probably have 20 sets of headphones around the house, all of the freebie/included variety.

I pretty much never use headphones, but now that I have an iPhone I think I'll use them more. One, I want to be handsfree while I drive. And two, I think I'll start listening to music/movies more.

The included set from apple seem fine, but seeing how people spend hundreds on headphones, I imagine an upgrade could sound a lot better. Perhaps I need to try a pair at a place that always easy returns before I go spending money.

Any recommendations?

They're showing up as $75 for me. Did the sale end?

the deals from palm and amazon are both dead; my order from palm got cancel because they're OOS. However, the deal on the klipsch headphones is still 50% off with the code i posted in my original message.

I'm really disappointed in palm cancelling my order. I ordered two and needed them. Had I known they'd back out I'd ordered from Amazon.

Order taken, 11/27/08 7:12 PM, Order confirmed 11/27/08 8:14 PM, Order cancelled 12/1/08 4:04 PM.

I would want them to be professionals.

Their inventory should have been programmed to show sold out when they ran out. At most sites when they are out, no more sales are taken. They do not wait almost five days to notify the order is cancelled.

I have to say I'm not impressed. I don't know if they were worth the price at even $50. I hate the way they feel in my ear, and they make jittery noises. I'll have to look into that problem other people talked about. If I had paid $130 for these I would have lost my mind.
