RE: bone conducting headphones
I've not seen any blue tooth bone conduction headphones, but the folks that make the AfterShokz headphones are talking about coming out with blue tooth this year. Personally, the AfterShokz headphones don't fit my head very well. They are probably a quarter to three-eighths inches shorter than would be ideal for me. But for those for whom they fit, they have gotten good reviews. The problem I see with their design is that if you have a small head, they will be too big because they are not adjustable.

RE: bone conducting headphones
Hi, I have the After Shokz which I find great. They are rechargeable and the battery lasts a long time. You recharge them in a USB port. I use them with my Trekker as well as my IPhone. You can get a model with microphone and one without and there is only $10 difference in price. They are not blue tooth and, right now, I don't know of any that are.

RE: bone conducting headphones
Hi, There is the Captain Plus. I don't know much about it but, someone in my class when I recently went for a Guide Dog, had one and was pleased with it. He pointed out that it is not the Trekker Breeze but very good considering the fact that it is about half the price. Myself, I don't think I would have much use for the voice recognition because of the ambient noise when I'm out on the street but he found it good for him in a smaller, quieter town. Of course, you don't absolutely have to use the voice recognition. If you go to Google and search for Captain talking GPS, you will get a lot of information about it.

RE: bone conducting headphones
They're quite nice! The sound is quite adequate, and they're pretty comfortable to wear. They might be a problem for some, depending on how large or small their heads are, since they do not have any way to adjust them. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Musiclady Sent: Wednesday, August 08, 2012 5:38 AM To: Viphone Email list Subject: bone conducting headphones I seem te recall some one had some of these?
