    Battery is inside one earpiece. There's reviews on youtube, it works with a microUSB charger so most phone chargers fit it. The set comes with a nifty USB adapter fitting to charge and let you still use the USB port. There's no power adapter shipped though. and yes …they are cool :)
    I should say the battery is non replaceable - but plantronics is a good brand - I expect it to last.

        Well I tested the whole ordering and delivery process before I posted. It took 2 weeks and besides the posty leaving it out in the rain (sigh) it arrived safely. The post was $5.50 or similar so not too bad considering lots of ebay folk charge 20 or more to send from Europe

  Don't mean to be too harsh on your first post but not that great of a deal.
  eBay is selling them for $69.95 shipped, Australian stock as well. But hey, here at OzBargain a saving of $3.95 is still a saving right?

  Well they have these in Vodafone stores for $99 and if you buy a second item (ie a case or charger) you get 20% off both items and an australian warranty. It looks like this site you need to send it back to the uk at your expense if you get a faulty one.

  Does this use a jack to connect or ONLY wifi connection?

  Coz I've been looking for a device like a receiver that would turn my earphones into a wireless earphones to work with my non-wifi device with a jack as well. (make sense?)

    To Mikeshashimi:

    I believe You would need a Bluetooth transmitter dongle for that. Something like this:

    You need a transmitter which you connect to 3.5mm jack and then convert it to Bluetooth, and then you can use this headset as wireless headphones.

      Is there a device that I can connect to my earphones so it becomes BT-compatible as well?

      Meaning a dongle for my earphone to pair with the dongle for my mp3 player (as in the link you provided).

      PS: sorry for OOT

    For me they've been fantastic, just stick my phone in the backpack, no tangled wires as i move or take my backpack on an off. I've found the smallest earbuds are the best size (normally I use the standard size) as they can pop out as the earpieces are heavier than a standard in ear headphone. Sound quality is great too - I have Shure sh840 cans for home recording and although they aren't up to the standard of those, the sound is perfectly fine for walking round and on the train for work.
