LOL.....for a second I thought your ipod picture included a pair of maroon colored underwear as a backdrop....I've decided it must be a shirt.
But maybe there's an idea there if I ever decide to write a full length review with pictures. My Iriver would look really black, cool, and trendy on top of a pair of Fruit of the Looms.

Don't worry I thought that too
good to see that I wasn't the only one who was perverted
Anyway good luck with the iPod, Yasmin- no hardrive problems I hope.

Good choice on the ipod, I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
It's definetly a better camera but i don't need the advancements yet.
Im going to get as much as i can out of the 10D and trade it for something
even better than the 20D in the future.

Hiya!
Thanks for your advice and links re : er-6i's
I already had the e2c's for a little while before.
I was just thinking of what to go for next to increase
the quality of sound, comfort and "coolness facor"
without resorting to white earphone cables!
I was even thinking of Grado's they seem good value
for money and i could easily push them away from my
ears to speak to someone.
Where as with in ear phones it isn't as easy.

If anyone can donate me a new pair of Er-4P then maybe just
i'll include my undies. But in the meantime I'll let your fantasies
torture you.

Cya, Yasmin
My girlfriend (who's an accessories designer for Bally in Switzerland) has one of these (I use a grey iSkin):
As well as several handbags.... Being in Switzerland, she's happy to use white Sony EX71's (without fear of being mugged). Getting a case for your shiny new iPod will keep it shiny. Otherwise you'll end up with scratches (and fingerprints) all over it in no time.
BTW: Try the Grado's before you buy, as they're known for being uncomfortable (for some)...

Its a see through silicone case. I hope it looks good over the ipod.
I didn't want to seal it all up so i can't see it or loose that feeling of holding
directly...

do you know anywhere in london where i can see/feel these grado's.
I don't want to look like a nerd, you know like "Bo Slecta" when he does
his Craig David impression.
There's is Tottenhm Court road in west london but they're more your
mainstream brands like Sony etc
Unless it's for home use only, I'd advise against the Grados. Impractical in all sorts of ways. Hi-Fi Experience (nearly opposite HSBC halfway down Tottenham Court Road) do stock them, and may have demo units.
Turnkey (Charing X Road, opposite Foyles) have phones from Beyerdynamic, Sennheiser and Sony for sale. They stock the MDR-7506, HD25-1 and DT250-80 among others, and they may let you demo. The HD25-1 seems to work well on most male and female heads and are very practical for portable use. The only downside is a somewhat sweaty experience in summer. Still, you can unearth the E2c for that.

Umm....no fantasies...just commenting on an observation

Agreed. Inefficient and uncomfortable are Grado's. Don't like Hi-Fi Experience. Their service, in my experience, is terrible. The HD25-1's, whilst not as retro-looking, can be had for around £125 (they still have a real pro-audio look about them though). A bargain in my book for their great sound but, yes, they can get a bit sweaty in the summer. Pads can be changed though...

They'd definetly be used for portable listeninig.
I only use headphones at home for sorting music on my computer in the
case when someone is watching Tv in the same room.
I'll check those headphones, but they seem quite big.
In order to get isolation from the outside world, it seems there's
no choice it's either earphones or massive headphones which cover the ear.
I'll have to see it through with the E2C's till I can get something more
comfortable later. Possibly Er-6i when they come out in black....

The Sennheiser HD25-1 is practically the same size as the Grados, although they stick out a bit more.
HD25-1 on left, SR80 on right.

Thanks for that tip I'll check out Turnkey's this week.
Of the models on sale which do you think will be suitable for the Ipod
without an amp, sound very good & still look "good" to wear.
