  great design!
  perhaps the only thing I’m not too sure about is the magnetic connect to make the earphones stay put.
  a magnetic field so near to the brain? i don’t think so.
  but cool design and use

  Thanks for the comments buddies.

  There is no need of a strong magnet to get those two buds stay together. Hence the week constant magnet field might not penetrate the head deeply.

  I’ve done a few research on this. Scientists have only found out that it is POSSIBLE to get harmed if a person is exposed for a long period of time under a STRONG dynamic electromagnetic field, in which the electromagnetic directions is changing constantly. Below is the link for the research done by WHO:

  Very cool design! I will probably get one once it is commercially available.
  But I might suggest using another mechanical connection instead of magnectic connection at the handphone units. There are two reasons.

  1.Metallic shells will probaly be used to make the magnectic connection more efficient, but these shells may lead to the magnets inside the headphone units repel each other as they are placed at the direction indicated.
  2.The magnetic field might interference the EM field while the headphones are operating and thus lower the audio quality.

  Anyway, I am quite looking forward to it

  Nokia stole your idea .

  have a look at this image,Nokia use soft materials to make the phone,althought the line is flat,it’s still disordered.I got this earphone in my pocket.I have to say,er….material selecting is important,sometimes it determine whether the problem can be solved by design.
