Apparently the switching between iPhone and Apple Watch is far from seamless. Then of course there is the fact that you can't control the volume unless you ask SIRI to do it or you pull out your iPhone. Of course this means that if you are on an airplane or elsewhere where SIRI is not available because of a lack of internet connection any controls are strictly via the phone. I tried a pair at one of the Apple Stores in Vancouver and I agtree that they sound very nice, but they are super expensive and until they offer volume and play/pause directly from the headset I'll wait. Since the lack of volume control seems to be a big complaint I strongly assume that the second generation of Airpods which probably come out later this year will have it and they are just too expensive to buy and then to buy again inside a year when they get improved.

Talk about luck, eh? Anyway, I must say that I am delighted with the results of the AirPods in terms of their sound quality and compatibility with my iPhone 6 Plus and MacBook Pro Mid 2014. I can honestly say that they are well worth the purchase price. For the first time ever, I can, on the fly, easily switch between a one ear configuration and a two ear Bluetooth headset configuration, while using my iPhone and MacBook Pro. Very, very nice, indeed. Give them a try at your first opportunity. Mark -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
