At the present rate of exchange, 160$US is 225$NZ.  I don't think that I will 
be buying any day 
soon.

Hi Jewel,

Apple Airpods are like Apple Earpods except that they are bluetooth/wireless. 
They look exactly like 
your earpods if you were to cut off the cable right underneath the hard plastic 
stem.
They have a new chip Apple developed called the W1 chip and they come in a 
little case/cradle which 
also recharges them and as soon as you open the case a message pops up on the 
iPhone that it found 
Airpods and it asks if you want to connect. They have no on/off switch, no 
volume control or any 
other buttons or switches. If you take them out of your ear they turn off or I 
guess go to sleep and 
at this point all you can do in terms of control is to tap one of them twice to 
bring up SIRI or, if 
the phone is ringing, a double tap on the Airpods will answer the call. They 
sound very good, but 
are also very expensive, $160 in the US, here in Canada $220 Canadian and a 
friend in Germany told 
me they are 180 Euros there which is even more since currently 180 Euros 
converts to about $195 US.

Regards,
Sieghard

Mark!  I haven't been following, in detail, the string on ear/airpods, so my 
question may seem a 
little dense, but is airpod a tradename, meaning for earpods that are designed 
to be used when in an 
aircraft?

Subject: Mark on AirPods

Hello Everyone,

Well, a couple of days ago, I walked into my local Apple store and just 
happened to arrive at the 
exact moment they received a shipment of 7 pairs of Airpods.

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
