iBuds anyone?

[Ryukyu]

I really can't stand the earphones that come with the iPhone. They constantly come loose in my ears, and I mean constantly.
Since nobody makes a set that work with the iPhone with the same functionality just yet, I thought I would try these iBuds for a temporary fix.
Has anybody used these? I have tried the Earjams from Griffin, but those muddied up the sound and because of the plastic part that clips to the earbuds, it made them even bigger in your ear.
Here's a link...iBuds

http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/05/diy-iphone-earbud-replacement/ a video tutorial for replacing the earpieces on the Apple earbuds.

I thought some people might be interested in something like this.

So nobody but me has a problem with the stock earbuds?

I have some issues with the stock earbuds.
They irritate my ears and the mic does not
filter out background noise well at all during
calls.

Thanks for the links, I have been shopping for
new buds, bluetooth ear piece, and a car
adapter kit.

Don't bother with the iBuds. I got them and they make everything sound muddy, and they don't stay on the earbuds that well.
I have a pair of Sony MDR51s that I think I'm going to try that mod with.
I want new buds, but none so far have the functionality of the Apple ones.

THESE DO NOT have the switch on the cable!

Purchased these yesterday at Apple - They told me they were identical in functionality to the packed in 'phones, - they're not. No switch is included to answer calls/skip tracks. A newer version not yet released WILL have this funtion. Also - Shure is making an adapter for ANY headphones - this adapter has a switch and microphone and will be out in August for 40 bucks!

I'm waiting for the Shure adapter so I can use my Etymotic headphones!

I took my iPhone for a run on the treadmill and they kept popping out.
