Thanks Chris and Karla, That information helps a lot. I may have to try them one of these days. I really like the idea of easily being able to switch between my iPhone and iPod Touch.

I mean, they're not a perfect fit per say, but in comparison to the prior model, they're much lighter, thinner and have more give. With the Trekz, I can have them on for extended periods of time and not get a headache. The Bluez II where terrible at this. Especially if I tried using them while on the bike or elliptical for example. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Carla Savage Sent: Wednesday, May 25, 2016 10:42 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Bone Conduction Headsets Hi Richard, They are much more bendy so fit better in my opinion.
