So the iPhone has been out for a couple weeks now, and those of us who have one have probably been able to use the included wired headset at least a few times. If you're like me, you love the functionality of it. That tiny little "button" works wonders. But the earbuds themselves hurt my ears after a certain amount of listening time.

So, I'm on the hunt for a new headset for my iPhone. My goal is to find something that has the same functionality as the Apple headset, but is easier on my poor ears. Personally I prefer the in-ear type of earbuds, they are softer and usually sound better.

The V-Moda Vibe Duo headset comes close, but it doesn't have the "click" action to change tracks, play/pause, or answer/hang up the phone. To me that is essential. They look sweet (and match the iPhone way better) and sound sweet though.

Anyone find any others out there that they like?

Do you have a link for that? Is it just some slip-on things that go over the stock Apple earbuds?
