[CUBE] [OT] In ear headphones iPod

[Alan Thompson]

these sound a lot like the sony "nudes," 
(http://formen.ign.com/news/33649.html) that i've got - in-ear, hardly 
notice that you're wearing them, have three sizes of rubber, in ear 
thingys, etc..  and they're white if you get the japanese version.  you 
can find these for $30. on ebay and other places.  great bass, 
excellent comfort.  great set of 'buds.  cool to see apple supplying 
these types of 'buds over the other, large, uncomfortable, non-bass 
response standard ear buds they've been shipping with (at least with my 
1G 5GB pod).
