With all this stuff about radiation and considering how much I'm on the phone in the car, I decided to switch to earplugs. I got this 30 dollar rubber tipped pair from Verizon called "mega bass" or something. If you drop one earplug it acts as a headset and the call quality is great.

I do have a bt earpiece, but they say that's not a guarantee of no radiation either. So, back to a wire. The bonus is that it plays music on the DROID X amazingly. AMAZING!

I had no idea how good a music player the DX is. I feel like I've just rediscovered my phone. :)
 
From your title I first thought you were switching phones and was like :( then I read it and was :D

That's cool that when you drop one it turns into a headset. Luckily I don't talk on the phone much so that radiation is staying away. If you really worried about the radiation you should get a hip holster. Don't want that radiation down where it counts lol.

I bought a pair of Sony earbuds at Bestbuy for $15. Using the Google Music player and Beta streaming the sound is great. As for phone calls it does not have a mic built in to the earbud wires but the sound is great and the people I talk to say they can here me fine.
 
I have always just used my ones from my BB, though i am curious as to how people still freak about radiation...
 
I use Skull Candy. I have 2 different pair, one w/ a mic that cost me like $60, and then I bought another pair for like $12. They are the best sounding $12 pair(no mic) of ear buds you will ever find, I promise. Skull Candy's buds have bass to them, not the tinny, trebly sound many have. They blow the Bose buds out of the water for half or 1/10th of the price btw.

Beats make a great ear bud too, but last I checked, the mobile part was not compatible w/ the DX. Always test your buds before you purchase as far as the mic goes, cause many do not work.
 
I use my Q-Jays if I want to listen to music on the phone; I'm not arsed about earplugs for talking, no one really calls me anyway. :rolleyes:
 
forget radiation i love my Moto Rckr's! Awesome headphone...my brain is starting to melt i can feel it like phil collins.....hold on...lol
 
I have looked into a set from GRADO and from shure that do the same thing. thought about it for a whole 5 minutes.

decided against it but I also haven't bought anything yet.
