Accessories Any earphone recommendation for EVO4G?

I won't buy anything but Shure headphones - even their bottom-of-the line are superior to anything else i've heard. As for noise cancellation, nothing under $500 from Shure has it, but they are all "noise isolating". This is for a good reason, as active cancellation tends to add artifacts to your music or whatever. Check at some electronics stores (found some SE310's - a $200 pair - on clearance for $50 :) ).

Get these, they are the best on the market, nothing better.
This set has no microphone:

Earphones - Bang & Olufsen

This set comes with microphone so you can talk.
EarSet 3 - Bang & Olufsen

I have the one that comes with mic, it is totally awesome. Best thing I ever purchased.

So do these earbuds:
a) handle calls
b) play music well
c) have pause/play/ff/rew button

Thanks!

I just got these:
Amazon.com: Sennheiser CX 300 II Precise Bass In-ear Canal Headphones with Asymmetrical Cable, Black: Electronics

There is some noise transmitted through the wire when it bumps around, but it's minimal and I hear that is an issui e with all in-the-ear headphones. Otherwise they sound worlds better than the cheap regular ear buds I was using before. I can sit on the subway now and hear nothing but the music. No train sounds.

I was at best buy and read reviews on the sennheisers...altecs,and a few others...i chose the sennheisers and am satisfied. Plenty of clean bass...small light weight and comfortable....the j cord is a little getting used to but overall great set of earbuds......better than the altec backbeats 5 folds,the evo output could be better...,but i reccommend....

Also i paid 70 plus tax at bestbuy......
