Yes, they're huge, but it's either that I have a large pocket to shove my organized cable + iPod + Porta Corda, or I have a bag.
The headband is now loose enough to be somewhat neckable, though.
I'd really love to have some IEMs / portable cans for outdoor use. I've been wanting an Ultrasone Pro 900 and a Westone UM2, but right now I don't have funds, plus I have to pay for the Porta Corda. Maybe if I successfully sell off some of my unused gear, then I could...

That's why I don't plan on listening to music while commuting when I am at the age where I would be doing so...

Although it can be dangerous when using IEMs when commuting. Using plain old common sense would help you to prevent this from happening. For one don't use an IEM that will isolate you too well. Shures are well known for this and I've heard some horror stories from headfiers regarding those and close death encounters. Even if I wasn't wearing an IEM I still treat the situation of being out and about as if someone is out to get me. You always need to be aware of your area and not trust drivers. Just imagine that they are idiots not paying attention and that alone will make you be more cautious.

I'm observant by nature, so I haven't had any close calls despite using CIEMs when I cycle to the beach and such. And there aren't any rail roads or dangerous crossings when I commute to school. However, that being said, plenty of ignorant people who don't observe signs or dangers are abound.

You know you are an audiophile when you accept that maybe, just maybe, crap like Machina Dynamica and Coconut Audio sells might actually do something...
