I don't see where you're going with this. Are you trying to say that p0wderh0und23 is a fraud and Westone will not come out with the 3 despite pictures and many other proofs?

Wow. That's a pretty ridiculous extrapolation, isn't it? Let's consider a more realistic possibility, that the 3 isn't as close to distribution as we'd like to think.

Information received from Westone was for a project update but not the release date per se.

Westone Announcement sent to Earphone Solutions in March 2007:

"45 + 20 = 3

...Many customers dissatisfied with the comfort or retention of their stock earbuds have opted to see a hearing care professional for custom adapter earpieces. Others, frustrated that they cannot appreciate the full fidelity of the music with stock earbuds, have upgraded to higher end universal earphones such as our UM1 and UM2, and even the custom ES1 and ES2.

Looking at this trend, we took note that our existing line of music products was designed, and the sound shaped, for the performance musician. But an on-stage musician looks for something a little different in their sound than an audiophile would. With that thought in mind, we have developed the new Westone 3, a true three-way universal fit earphone, featuring separate low, mid and high frequency drivers in each earpiece. The sound accuracy and frequency range is unbelievable. The feedback we've received from testing has been very encouraging and there is already a lot of positive "buzz" for the product appearing in online blogs and forums...

We are certainly excited about the positive feedback for the Westone 3 and its potential in the market.

(By the way, if you have been wondering about the arithmetic in our headline, don't worry - it's not more "new math" that you'll need to learn. It's just marketing speak for "The new Westone 3 is the result of over 45 years of making products for the human ear and 20 years of involvement in the music industry.")"



There you have it!

Still a long time waiting, almost one more month to be received.(April 16 shipped, at least 3 days for delivery)


Anyway, still a good news for us, at least a specific date has been mentioned.

The reason nothing is on the current site is because we are a few weeks away from lauching a new monster site. ALL efforts are going into that, so we decided to use the forums to get the word out. The new site will have info, just take a deep breath..in....out....in...out...
