Fire. The world is coming to fire.

Dude, let me say. Your avatar? I've been saying that for a while now... I'm so glad someone else agrees.

Nothing to do with Porsche cars, afaik - apart from F.A. Porsche of Porsche Design being Ferdinand Porsche's grandson.

Umm, I'd rather use a PX100 then - may not look as cool, but sounds good. They're available in white, too, and if you like it retro, there's a variant with yellow earpads as well (though I'm not sure whether it's available everywhere)...

Actually, scrub the Zen Xtra reference.... its headphone socket has just succumbed to the curse of the Great Zen Xtra headphone Socket, where anything created by creative will at some point die on you because they dry solder their components.

Utter balls!

Anyway, my hunt for the Yamaha's continues, and my only lead (AKIRA) has yet to get back to me.

Lini.... would you be prepared to sell your pair?

Sorry, Craig, but no, I don't think so: That thingy is not only quite a rare collectible by now, it's also connected with some fond memories. Plus, I'd have to fetch it from Munich first, anyway...

I'm a big fan of interesting designs, that thing is practically a piece of modern art.
