I hate you so much right now <3

Two days before payday.. my Phillips in ear ones broke.. third set in 4/5 months :frown:

So I need suggestions guys. I need a good durable set of in ear headphones for around a max price of £30 or so.
I mainly listen to podcasts, Audiobooks and spotify, so specific sound benefits won't be a big deal to me

Haha sorry ;D

Are you wrapping your headphones around the phone/player? As for what to get, I'd go for one of these three pairs for around £30:

My headphones arrived today =D initial impressions are very nice, looking forward to hearing them after a couple of nights of burn-in.

That's most likely what's doing the damage if you've lost multiple sets, it tends to put a lot of stress on the connections at the jack/monitors. Just wrap them up separately if possible (:

Anyone here use that Facebook Branchout thing?

Don't do it

Not gonna lie, I'm tempted to get the new iPad. :ashamed2:

Looks rather delicious and I say that as someone who hates Apple. The screen is particularly impressive, it's got more pixels than my TV :frown:

Also quite impressed that the cost is going to be the same.

But I'm still waiting on the Windows 8 tablets. I love Metro.

Not quite the same, but you could always run a remote desktop app on the iPad to bring in the best of both worlds. Apps like Splashtop are extremely responsive now.

But yeah, the new iPad looks very nice indeed. It stands a pretty good chance to have kicked the Android tablet market in the teeth, especially if the processor can be shown to deliver the speeds Apple are claiming over the Tegra 3.

EDIT: Hmm, no "one more thing", looks like Siri is staying exclusive to the iPhone 4S :holmes:

iPad 3 certain does look very nice but wouldn't swap my android tablet for it. It just feels so limited compared with the customisation I can make to mine

I'd like to meet the person that thought the HS in HSDPA ought to stand for "High Speed". I'm currently tethering on a full strength HSDPA connection and it's taken me 15 minutes just to get this page to load.

TBF, have you seen how terrible 3G is? Anything is high-speed in comparison to that. :colonhash:

Also, TSR is not particularly mobile-friendly, mainly due to peoples' signatures it seems.

Would you be able to recommend a set of phones (either type, only really listen to music when on train/sitting down) in the £80-£120 (150 absolute max)? Something with a good balance of bass and treble, and a couple of bits on the midrange.

Pah, it's all about viewing distance, I wouldn't worry. Yes, it IS impressive, but necessary? No.

As for Metro? Well, it's nice, but Windows 8 feels a bit disjointed, if I'm honest. They should have followed Apple's lead by separating the OS styles and have a more classic start menu on larger monitors (similar to Stardock's Start8).

I'm personally more excited for this: http://www.ubuntu.com/devices/android

Been using it for ages to get my XDA fix. TSR working on it is a right bonus.

Windows 8 still has the best part of a year to be refined. I reckon that it will be a cracker. I'm personally a big fan of Metro but I can see why some people won't like it. Certainly I think that rather than use the traditional desktop with a Metro start menu layer it should have been all Metro to avoid any confusion - it's not hard to navigate Metro on a PC but mixing the old with the new will cause more problems than it will create. I can only dread the Windows 8 release date for the reason that I work in a tech store and the number of questions about "WHERE IS MY START BUTTON OMFG?!1!???! :angry:

" or alternatively "WHERE IS MY DESKTOP!?!!????! :frown:

" will be crazy.
