You can get a pair of the new Apple EarPods today for $29, or if you plan on picking up the new iPhone 5, iPod touch, or iPod nano, the EarPods will be included.

Sol Republic deadmau5 headphones

SOL REPUBLIC has announced a new design for its Tracks HD headphones, a result of a collaboration with electronic music artist and DJ, deadmau5. These are just as good as the Tracks HD headphones that you might already be familiar with, so you get the deep bass, crisp vocals, and high clarity in your music. They're also customizable, as the earcups can be removed from the headband. The art is certainly unique though, and we're a sucker for orange.

Sony Ericsson MH907: First headphones that sense you

Sony Ericsson

has been promising something new with their new MH907 earphones, but we suppose their claim of “the way you listen to music changes forever” is a tad too bragadocious. 

The SensMe technology is somewhat impressive, though.  You put the phones in your ear, and it plays.  Just take one of them out, and your audio automatically pauses.  Calls can be taken in the same manner. 

These earphones come in chrome and yellow/white for about $55.  Of course, you will need a Sony Ericsson phone with a “Fast port” connector to use “the first stereo headphones that sense you.”  There is a YouTube video below with freaky animation if you want to see how it works.
