I agree completely. They should have gone with sleek black and not try to copy the white earbuds of the iPod... oh well. Also, the headphones are lop-sided like the EX71 series, which I own a brand new pair of, and feel a bit "cheap", but the sound out of them is AMAZING! I have to admit that the PSP's sound, even from the tiny speakers, is well above par. Kudos to Sony for the sound... I just wish they included sturdier BLACK earphones.
ADDITION: I own two iPods. I can truely say that the Apple stock earbuds are pretty bad, so it's not just Sony. I went out and purchased an expensive pair of Shure studio monitors/earphones which are black in color and I plan on using those with the PSP.
