Joanne is looking for some bluetooth ear buds. Anyone have any advice?
She wants to use them for audio books.

Been looking for an in-ear canal bluetooth thingie.  There are tons of bluetooth earbuds out there, but not too many with in-ear canal buds (which are best for noise cancellation awhile riding).  Just type bluetooth earbuds into your search engine and you'll get a lot of hits.  Many on Amazon

Jeff, check out the LG HBS900.

They are Bluetooth, feature Harman Kardon sound, and have retractable cords. They go around your neck and work well with a helmet. She can even do phone calls while riding on the Valk.
About 150 retail but I bought an open box pair for $82 on that auction site.

Of course they have cheaper models, but knowing the kind of money you have, Jo deserves nothing but the best. Wink

The in-canal "tips" or "buds" like in the pic below is really all that is needed as far as sound is concerned.  Any set of bluetooth earphones that you like can be made to be noise cancelling with these and they don't have to break the bank.  They slip into the ear canal and the tapered shape seals the canal from wind and noise.  They work great.  I have to remove one of them to talk to OSS when we're out riding.  Maybe they work too good.

+1 on the LG's. I've been using these for a long time now. They are great and the sound is very good.
