    Pros: Good audio quality
    Comfortable
    Bluetooth dongle gives me access to cordless audio from almost any source!
    Long battery life

    Cons: Odd habit of getting "lost" and requiring hard re-set
    Audio quality could be better
    mic could be MUCH better

    Summary: I've had these for over a year and wear them almost every day. Maybe my expectations a to low but I love them! I use the bluetooth dongle with my PC at work, my Palm TX, my PC at home, and any place else I need to listen to audio. Don't get me wrong, they are not perfect. The sound quality, while good, could be better. If I could change one thing it would be to improve the microphone and it's ability to deal with wind and background noise. I use them mostly to listen to music and podcasts at work to drown out the folks around me. At home I use it to listen to the TV without disturbing anyone with the sound levels. If I had to go out today and buy a set of headphones I would buy them again.
