"Good but not worth the money"

I bought these to run in. They work fine and the range is ok. They are about 8 months old and they will not power up. I suspect the sweat got into them as I see some of the screws rusted. I would think for the money they should at least make it a whole year. They are also very umcomfortable and wearing them longer then 40 minutes is difficult.
I bought these headphones some months ago hopeing they would allow me to listen to Old Time Radio shows while moving about the house.
Cons:
Range is 33 feet only if line of sight. Otherwise, walls, appliances or any other solid object limits the range to as little as 12 feet.
The headphones are very uncomfortable. The plastic rings that fit around your ears begin to cause pain within a few minutes. After 30 minutes, I cannot stand wearing them any longer.
The battery life is insufficient. I rarely get more than 30 minutes use between charges.
The sound quality is mediocre at best. It works for my OTR programs since the sound quality is poor in the first place. However, for music, the sound is almost a monotone.
The iPod adapters are a pain to keep up with. Unless you put them in a plastic bag or a pouch, they end up scattering all over the place. They should come with a pouch or other holder.
The power switch on the headphones failed after two months.
Pros:
They are Prime eligible.
"??299.00??? Is Amazon Crazy?"

I bought mine over a year ago for under $100 new at Bestbuy. Why is the same model $299 at Amazon? If you do a quick search on Google "NO ONE" is selling this product for over $200. And it can easily be found for under $100.
Now for the review.
I've had mine for over one year with almost no problems. The bluetooth works great. I was recently painting some rooms in the house and left my mp3 player by the front door and was working 2 rooms away without any issues.
What I think is the biggest benefit for these headphones is the bluetooth transmitter that is included. I've used them in the following electronics: TV, computer, mp3 player, PSP, stereo and portable satellite radio. I also like the fact that it doesn't have a microphone with it. I'm not using these to communicate. I only want to listen to music and movies.
2 problems. The first issue that I have had is after awhile the headphones start to hurt my ears. Not the sound, but the pressure against my ear. I'm just not used to this type of headphone or is could be that my ears just stick out too much :-)
The other problem that I've had is a wire in the plug must be alittle loose. Sometimes the sound only comes out of one side until I wiggle the plug a bit. After it's fine.
PLEASE LOGITECH LISTEN: Great idea, just use the same concept and come out with some DJ style headphones.
"Works with iPod Touch OS 3.0 Bluetooth Upgrade!!!"

I can confirm that these can be paired with iPod Touch OS 3.0 which adds Bluetooth capability to the Touch. Thanks to the forum which offered the following instructions to override the proprietary pairing between the FreePulse headphones and included transmitter:
Although it is is not included with the instructions that came with the headphones, if you look in the troubleshooting section, it explains how to put the headphones into pairing mode. If you hold the power on button for 15 seconds while the headphones are off. If done correctly, the headphones should rapidly flash red and blue, indicating they are in pairing mode. If you have your Bluetooth device search while this occurs, you should be able to enter in the passkey of 0000 (not necessary with iPod Touch). I hope this clarifies that the proprietary connection is not required to enjoy these headphones.
Thanks to Bob for posting this! My iPod Touch is on our kitchen counter and I am in the next room with my FreePulse headphones on. I am currently listening to the Michael Jackson tribute on the Slacker app (GREAT app, BTW) and it sounds very good for streaming audio.

I have had a set of these for over a year and they are great. Wanted a second set and the price is $250????? I don't remember what I paid but it was nowhere near that. So this is the one technology the increases in price?

I own these for over 2 years. No problems so far. The sound is OK, I use them while on a treadmill, can walk around, not too far though. I wish they had better way to charge them - you have to plug the headphones and the transmitter separately.
