They got some serious bass kick!
Apple just emailed me another great message that tells me about the various products they have for the back-to-school period. What I found most interesting were the accessories in the headphones dept – namely some “Beats” headphones, endorsed by none other than Dr Dre!
These things look serious – big cans on your head, for some serious bass kick – the idea being that most headphones are not able to reproduce the kinds of sounds that are programmed in studios these days.
Gotta say, I like them – nice design, I’m sure they sound good (anyone want to send me a pair for testing?!) – the only thing that’s stopping me from getting a pair is the price – £279.95 in the UK. Having said that, good headphones don’t come cheap, so maybe I oughta bite the bullet!
If you want to check great info on the headphones on the Apple UK site, go here.

Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career
when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has
now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the
next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas!
He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently
became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years
when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to
'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make
your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device)
isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question
of why you continue to use it...
His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and
infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the
occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience
in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with
regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
