Review--Headphones to Replace your iPod Earbuds.

The review covers a wide variety of headphones in three categories -- lightweight, travel and full-size -- and has a suggested favorite for four kinds of buyers: the bargain hunter, the value shopper, the chic styler, and the ultra audiophile. The review claims that "[w]hichever model you choose, you'll be taking a step up the audio ladder" [from the iPod earbuds]. The recommendations include our mid-cost ($150) favorite, the Etymotic ER-6i in-ear-canal headphones, but not the bargain ($15) Griffin EarJams nor the expensive ($300) Bose QuietComfort 2 headphones. The latter two weren't even considered. Check out the review in this Computerworld article. [Dana Baggett]
