Don't forget the RE-262--on sale for $99.  I've been trying to decide between the GR07 and the RE-262 as an upgrade from my S4i, and the $99 RE-262 clinched it for me.  I'm trying hard not to order the X10 as well.
 

I didn't consider the RE-262 because I don't wanna have to carry around an amp, I'll be using it mostly with my ipod.

Klipsch X10 for $85 - an absolutely must buy
Crossfade LP for $75 - good for someone who wants a cheap bassy can 
(too bad I just bought one used for $67 on eBay a week ago without all the accessories, but hey, at least I don't have to burn in 
size]
)

I'm planning on using mine with an iPhone 4 or iPad.  I'd like to get by without an amp, but I'll see how well they're driven without one.  Head Direct is awesome, my RE-262's are already out for delivery today.  I'll post my observations on amped/unamped tonight if that helps.

$129.00- $149.00,
Free Shipping.
http://www.shopnbc.com/OFFER/?action=View&offercode=434-814&ICID=HS1-_-TTV-_-112612
 
You got two pairs, both Tracks HD and Amps Earbuds for $129 . (Anthem design costs $20 more)
I think they are fashionable, comfortable and not bad sounding (unlike certain hip brand).  Shopnbc has slightly longer than 30 days return policy, till Jan1, 2013.
Some Amazon reviews complaint about build quality (not worse or better than most of brands); customer service seem decent, no problem to send out replacement.
