Anbody have a pair of these or heard or tried them out. If you have the 180 ear warmers, then you can buy a pack of these earphones to slip inside the ear warmers. Sounds cool. Comfort and quality not sure... Anything?

Why is everyone so against skiing and music? Tons of people do it, plus, its not like you are deaf and can't hear anything while skiing w/ the iPod. Basically, my main thing is on the lifts. I also ski w/ it going down the hill, but obviously will turn the volume down a little--> REMOTE. ANYTHING?

Kind of... same concept, just with the 180's though. I doubt its anything special either..

For the lifts, np, but would only maybe get slim speakers on the shoulders (none intrusive) as I want to hear everything and also I use a helmet and do crazy stuff :)

Those are the 180's and they go behind your head and not over it. I have a pair with the headphones and they don't sound horrible, especially for the sale of $10 I got them for. They don't really add much so if the plain earwarmers are comfortable, adding the headphones will be about the same. I'd say buy them because its better than dealing with earbuds that might fall out or something of the sort.
