Maxell EC450 Digital Ear Clips Review

The cord is extremely short--2' tops--so you can't use them unless you're clipping your mp3 player on your arm or right at your waist. And I've only been using them about 2 weeks, and the rubber has already broken where the wire connects to the earclip, leaving the wire exposed. And when you use the in-line volume control, it can make half of the stereo sound drop out. I've seen other headphones with in-line volume control do that, but usually only after months, not right out of the box.

On the plus side, it doesn't have that irritating "cord management" thing, where one of the ears has a much longer cord than the other, forcing you to either leave your mp3 player on your left side (which makes SO much sense, since so many of us are left-handed) or have the cord cross in front of you. This one lets you pick which side to wear your ipod on.
