Bluetooth headphones are getting there

bluetrek st1Bluetooth is awesome and all, but in my experience no one has figured out how to use it in wireless headphones without creating a seriously lousy product. That healthy skepticism doesn't mean I'm without hope or optimism for the future. I'm sure eventually there'll be wireless Bluetooth headphones that are just as comfortable as traditional wired phones, I just haven't found 'em yet.

The latest models to try to win me over are these Bluetrek ST1s. They're in-ear, which is nice, but they still have what looks to be a bulky transmitter that hangs behind your head. It does have some nice features, like audio controls built-in to the earpieces, allowing you to control your tunes without needing to fish around in your pocket for your music player. However, all the nice features in the world won't save uncomfortable or awkward headphones from the trash, so we'll have to wait and see how these guys feel in use.
