Good luck HondaMaker, if it's not counterfeit than you got a great price! Let us know how it goes bro!

On sale on Buy.com for $60.

Really want to order these as a birthday present for myself.

For those that have them: do the skip and back buttons work for music playback functions? Anything not work? These are the S9-HD ones...

They work very well for me, the only thing that doesn't work is the skip track since it's not supported by the iPhone yet. I really like them so far.

Like itsabouttime said, the iPhone Stereo Bluetooth capability does NOT support track forward or track back. Why? I have no idea. So, it would not work with ALL stereo Bluetooth headsets anyway not just the S9-HD.

Oh, so no matter what I have, I won't have that capability, you're saying?

That's correct, the issue is with the iPhone, not the headset. Hopefully the next update from Apple will include this.

I'm thinking about getting these headphones to use while I work out. I'm tired of worrying about yanking my iPhone off of the elliptical machine if I accidentally catch the headphone cord, and possibly damaging the headphone jack as a result.

I'm hoping Apple fixes the incomplete AVRCP implementation in the next firmware update so that we can get the skip, fast-forward, etc. controls with an accessory like this.

macgirl, I use these while I work out as well, they're terrific. Of course I wish the AVRCP was enabled, but aside from that they work great. Very lightweight, sound quality is really good. Volume was not quite as loud as I wanted, I went into the iPod settings and ended up changing the EQ to Spoken Word and it increased the volume dramatically, they are now perfectly loud. Having no wires bounce around while I run is great.
If you try them, let me know what you think.

Got my S9 today! Like it so far, except with my earbuds, I could hold the little clicker until the voice command activated, and so far with the S9, I can't find a a way to activate voice commands.

I haven't gone jogging with it yet, though. Tomorrow I'll get off my lazy a$$ and run a little.
