After a couple of days use I've decided to give them to a friend. They're OK, but I found that they didn't fit me all that well - a bit uncomfortable, and the best position for sound quality was slightly higher than the position at which they naturally rest on my ears.

I feel I have to go back to in-ear 'phones now, so I've just ordered some (much cheaper) Sonys from play.com. The BT20NX seems good value at GBP17.99. I'm also tempted to try the BT30Q at GBP17.99, but I suspect they might be disappointing in a similar way to the BT21G.

Yea the streetstyle fit isn't for everyone, but i don't mind the positioning.

@icaka - sound isn't the worst (i think its got pretty good clarity) but my v-moda vibe iem's blow it out of the water. lacks in the base department if thats what your're into (although EQ does help). sorry if it doesnt help you, im not really an audiophile i only got it to reduce cable clutter and it was black hehe

Thanks for the info mate.But I've had some PMs with Dogmann and he gave me some info on BT headphones,very helpfull,thanks Doggy! We discussed with him the maximum "bitrate" that A2DP can physically deliver and we concluded that BT 2.0's A2DP is insufficient for normal listening(not just for me,I'm not expressing personal preferences here).So I decided to wait for some improvement on BT technology(2.* or 3.0) till the summer comes.The shitty transducers are also an issue,as well as DACs and opamps and comfort but I can fix them all.
I have pretty good headphones,but they are wired.I'm not a bass freak,I need some wireless phones for the fitness club only,because wires are messing up too much there.And despite I'm an audiophile I can sacrifice some quality considering the lack of wires - its only for the fitness club after all.

Cheers!
