This thing is cheap enough to make me not feeling guilty to upgrade

waiting to see what will the 3rd generation bring to the table, already liking the remote layout and placement.

The P3 is totally stunning and absolutely premium looks end-end......Never seen this new lux remote control buttons at this price point and the dark grey and black color combination is gorgeous......sounds appealing?

Around $30 still? Goddang. I still don't get why most 3rd-party sellers still price this high. I mean, retail for the Pistons 3.0 still stays at around $16. Now, I get the whole supplier overheads and stuff like that, but it seems they REALLY want to make bigger profit margins from them. A little disappointing, to be honest.

The way they've curved the earpiece reminds me of the Klipsch S4 series. They were ultra-comfortable so I am hoping the same thing happens here: improved ear tips that actually seal would be good too.
 
Have they made it so they don't rub against your ears as much as the 2.0s did? That was my big complaint.
