These are terrible headphones. Maybe they work with other mobile devices, but I can't get it to stop stuttering with my Droid X. In pairing it with my computer, they still sound awful. Definitely not worth the money. If you're trying to cut the wire, look elsewhere.

These run between 80 and 300 bucks at most retailers, and to be honest they're probably one of the best sets of bluetooth sport-style headphones.
The sound quality is amazing, and the range is fairly spectacular. When I hooked these up to my PC and played some audio from MP3, FLAC/WAV, and then CD's, I could tell the difference in quality.
On top of that, I've had these for the better part of a year and a half, through snow, rain and other bad conditions, and they still work perfect. The only thing I've noticed is that after about a year, the "7.5hr battery" takes a steep nosedive on life expectancy, and can be fairly hard to find a replacement for.
On a note - avoid keeping your cellphone in a pants pocket while using them. The bluetooth frequency cuts out very near this range - any closer or further and it'll work perfectly,. Sometimes you notice this when you turn your head to the side while listening.
