I almost bought those instead of the Motorolas, but I couldn't get past the negative reviews on the headband breaking. However, I did read somewhere that a guy boiled some water and stuck the headband in there to fix the breakage problem. I'm not too sure about that, but I thought I'd throw it in there.

Yes. I got mine for US$20 plus shipping. You have to "work it" to make the boiling solution work, first of all. Dip it, let it heat up while stirring it (be careful not to get the electronics wet), then gently expand the headband. It does fit a little tight. At that low price, I have a couple, and the first one, without the boiling water solution, is developing a crack. I am experimenting today with fixing it using MEK (or ProWeld), which is a plastic solvent, putting just a small amount on the plastic to soften it up, then holding it together. But yeah, the breakage issue does exist. You should pick it up only if it's extremely cheap and you have the time to mess with it. PM me and I'll let you know how the experiment worked.

amazon and jandr are selling them cheap now
I may get one more
but there's another minus: the audio adaptor works ONLY with logi (I tried to pair with plantronics and moto, no luck; but the one with plantronics can pair all 3)

adding reinforcement on your logitech wireless headphones' headband
here is how to apply reinforcement
the reason why the headband breaks on the middle is that part suffers 2 stress (bending and tearing)
to prevent breaking, you need to add the thickness of the middle part of the headband (reinforcement)
to apply reinforcement, you need:
a plastic strip (8mm x 50mm) cut from plastic card (unused credit card, or the card holds SIM card)
Krazy glue or CA (can obtained from hobbystore)
nylon packaging tape (it's recommended to protect/hold the plastic strip)
scotch tape

method:
if you found the headband is broken, do the fix with glue first, go to next step after the glue is dried
apply a small amount of glue on the headband, then put the plastic strip on there, and hold it close with scotch tape
apply glue SLOWLY along the gap, then use paper towel to wipe away excess glue
(this is recommended) use nylon tape to wrap the plastic strip, from the edge (5mm or 2" from the center) to the center, do it from left, then right, repeat it if you need it, wrap it nice and neat, and tight
