Checked out my RSS feeds today and to my surprise, here’s a gadget that would certainly, certainly be useful for active folks. Sure does look like a pair of shades when you initially look at it, but careful scrutiny will show that the ends aren’t curved to fit the ear, it’s “spoked” to be inserted. LOL!

For about US$130, this better be good sound quality, and I’m sure it is! Kudos to Motorola for thinking about people who are just having a hard time with cables. When you’re in a rushing crowd it does hurt when the earphones are quickly snapped from you! Ouch! Happened to me several times. And it’s a little uncomfortable to wear the wires under your shirts too.
