Sennheiser CX 300: 'Phones for your phone
Fed up with lugging around an MP3 player when your smart phone is perfectly capable, apart from the terrible headphones? Relax, Sennheiser is here with a 2.5mm solution

Most consumers automatically assume that the cans that ship with their MP3 player are up to the task, but the sad reality is that most standard headphones are complete pants. Think of bundled headphones as something you might get free in a cereal packet and you'll understand where we're coming from.
