Logitech Offers iPod Users Wireless Headphones

Logitech, leader in wireless products and sound systems, has announced today a pair of wireless headphones aimed at iPod users.

With Logitech Wireless Headphones, you will be able to listen to music and in the same time walk within a 30 feet radius without having to carry the iPod with you.

The headphones implements Bluetooth 1.2 wireless technology which includes adaptive frequency hopping, for interference-free, crystal-clear digital audio and 40 mm full-range neodymium drivers.

For a complete wireless experience, Logitech has fitted the headphones with volume and track navigation controls, so you won't have to go to your iPod every time you want to make adjustments.

"Wireless headphones unleash people from their music player and remove the nuisance of cords," said Ray Weikel, director of product marketing for Logitech's Audio Business Unit. "No more untangling those earbuds when you pull your iPod out of the bag, or managing the cords while trying to enjoy your music. We believe our wireless headphones will truly be liberating for iPod owners."

The product weighs 3.2 ounces and the wireless adaptor which connects to the iPod through the headphone connector weighs a little over 1 ounce.

The headphones are powered by rechargeable batteries, which play up to eight hours of music per charge. The product can be fully recharged in 2.5 hours. Both the adapter and the headphones can recharge simultaneously with the provided AC adapter, which features two connectors.
