I know that Ian. But Have you actually tried the updated version so that you
can give a balanced and unprejudiced assessment?

This is a piece of advertorial and therefore needs to be treated as such.
My own experience of both wired and blue tooth sets is that they are fine
for speech including synth speech in settings where the ambient noise level
is not too high:  the reproduction of music by both sets cannot be described
as anything better than unsatisfactory:  the copy describes spill as
"Normal" but given that both sets have to be used at the top of their volume
range, such spill as there is will clearly be exacerbated.  Once when I was
testing the wired version, a colleague sitting three desks away could not
only hear the music I was playing but could easily identify it.  Having said
all that, I use both sets on a daily basis for working with my desktop
computer and hand held devices, both in the relative  quiet comfort of an
office setting.  I know others use theirs on the street.
