As the product name suggests, Logitech’s new “Logitech Wireless Headphones for iPod” sends digital music from an iPod to a set of headphones and does so without wires. Its based on a Bluetooth 1.2 adapter that plugs into almost any iPod. Playback is controlled via buttons on the side of the headphones. The product just came out, and already there are 2 opposing reviews on it :- CNet loves it. They gave it 8 out of 10, and an excellect rating, and declared the headphones to be “surprisingly comfortable and light”. And then there’s the review from the inveterate Walter Mossberg … While he liked the quality of the music (”sounded just like it would on wired headphones”), he found the headphones themselves to be heavy and uncomfortable and only wearable for 45 minutes or so. Maybe Walt got the ones made of lead instead of neodymium.
