I would strongly recommend the Sennheiser PX100 headphones. You can find them
at:
www.newegg.com
and at several other online places. They weigh about 2 ounces, fold up into a
small, flat package, and have the best sound of any walkman-style headphones I
have ever tried. They do not go into the ear, they are standard headphones
that cover the whole ear. They also seem to be pretty durable, which is an
important consideration for me, as I tend to be very hard on headphones.

Subject: [bookport] Anybody have a good earphone recommendation?
The earbuds that came with bookport sound just fine to me in relatively quiet
places. However, in noisier environments, I find I have to turn the volume up
too high for comfort purposes in order to hear what bookport is saying. So I
want to find a comfortable set of earphones that will cover the ear and sound
good with bookport.
I'm concerned that high Fidelity earphones might tend to exaggerate the popping
and booming and static that the TripleTalk synthesizer is notorious for. Any
suggestions?
I looked at the ones in the APH catalog, but $10 sounds a bit, dare I say,
cheap.
Has anybody tried the noise canceling headphones from Sharper Image?
