Bluetooth Headphones
http://www.plantronics.com/us/produc...uId=sku7140043
These appeal to me but the non-replaceable lithium battery throws me off. I had to replace a pair of Sony ones when the battery went dead after about 15 months. So what is the life expectancy of lithium batteries ? Googling brings up a lot of 'ifs' and 'ands' and 'buts' I just don't want to spend that sort of money on something which will become an expensive paper weight within a short period of time. |

Those in my Nokia BH-505 are still doing fine, getting on for 10 years since I got them.

The warranty should cover that. Can't see what warranty those have tho. |

You might find that "non replaceable" actually means "non replaceable without a little skill and perhaps a soldering iron" Those slotted screws on the side look promising for a start. No user serviceable parts in this post. -- Graham. %Profound_observation% |
