Chadwick Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 i dont see this happening logically, how many times have you had an earbud fall out? the last thing i need to do is be looking for an earbud on the ground while walking down some busy street.. I thing earbuds should stick with wires or atleast have a wire between them to create some protection against losing one.

Syphonic Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 Yeah I was just about to say the same as Chadwick. Connect the two buds via a wire which you could clip onto yourself. Question arises though about partnering your buds with the pod, otherwise it could be chaos on a crowded Tube train, you'd hear someone elses music!

Or you and your buddy Chadwick can read the article I posted, stating it's just a promotion for the "Lucky Bags". ;) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/412999-apple-wireless-earbuds/page/2/#findComment-586977084 Share on other sites More sharing options...
christracy Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 couple of thoughts, how about the battery that would necessary on the ear buds? it would be kinda large or offer short battery life. and what about recharging them? wireless earbuds would be cool but i think its still a bit far off.

chopyaedoff Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 So it's not wireless Earphones but just advertising for the lucky bags. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/412999-apple-wireless-earbuds/page/2/#findComment-586977419 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt T Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 You can already buy wireless headphones for the iPod - a third party company make them and apparently the sound quality is better than that of the iPod's earbuds. I saw a video review of them some time last year, but I can't remember what they're called... :( Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/412999-apple-wireless-earbuds/page/2/#findComment-586977422 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonkeyClaw Veteran Posted December 27, 2005 Veteran Share Posted December 27, 2005 Right, they are already out on the market and they aren't that bad from what I hear. It would be awesome if Apple would produce some, but I really think this is just simply ads for the lucky bags now that I think about it after reading the Think Secret article. Thats a cool ad though... Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/412999-apple-wireless-earbuds/page/2/#findComment-586977435 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cvrt7.62Ghst Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 If this is true, it will be amazing. But the bigger questions will be the sound quality. Not that the average consumer will really care, as long as it's coming from apple; they'll like it :p :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: Heh heh heh, so true slimy. They could make an ipod nano in the shape of a dog turd and people would tout it as the the most "innovative" thing ever.

Andy07 Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 Apple win either way... Bluetooth is gonna make the unit more expensive and if they went rechargable batteries the earphones would be bulky!

.Ark Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 iPod's battery is rechargable... wireless would drown the battery... If you meant battery in the earphones... that's a really really bad idea :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/412999-apple-wireless-earbuds/page/2/#findComment-586978231 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banzai Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 i would lose wireless earbuds, unless apple did something so when u lost them they would beep so you could find them or something.

Nighthawk-F117 Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 If they do integrate something like this i'd be really annoyed, I just got a 30GB iPod video for christmas.
