I don't have much to say here, I just wanted to put together a summary post of some Bluetooth headphones that have been released. The last ones, from Plantronics are the most interesting to me. I don't like behind the head designs and I don't mind big headphones so they fit my style requirements. They can't be any bigger than the Sonys I wear everyday. They also seem to have some good tech behind them. If I decide to pick up the Platronics ones, I'll be sure to post a review.

Where's the specs man?
My requirements are a good sounding pair with wireless, rechargable batteries that charge when the headphones are docked, and a comfortable over-ear design (basically anything but earbuds are acceptable).
The Sennheiser A120's are my current favorite (not bluetooth, but still wireless). I need to save up some cash for them though. We need some prices on these units for comparison's sake. I don't know about that Bluetooth though, ><>< ehhhh.
Looked at the Logitech ones at the Apple Store. One problem with wireless though: You can't fly with them. If you travel regularly, you need a good set of wired ones also. Other than that, I like the fact the the bluetooth adapter sits on the IPod on hte Logitech model. I mean, why have a cable extending off the Ipod to the adapter? I wanted "wireless". Not a "shorter wire". I have to agree with Ian on that one.
