UPDATE: Sony Ericsson "Puts Your Ears In Control" - The UpStream

I mentioned last week that I ran across something interesting on Sony Ericsson's website regarding a way they were going to revolutionize the way you listen to music. Well, we found out earlier this week of what that exactly was. The webcast explained that Sony had a new technology out called "SensMe Control" that would be incorporated into these new earbuds. When you insert both earbuds into your ears, music will begin to play based off of dynamic capacitive control -- basically the same technology found in some touchscreen mobile devices. Remove one earbud while there is an incoming call, and you will be able to answer the call. Remove both and the music stops playing. Very cool stuff! Now don't worry. These wont start playing while in your pocket. They react to the human touch, which is conductive in nature.

These earbuds will run you 39 Euros, or roughly 60 U.S. Dollars. Not too bad for something that could possible be pretty cool. Once these hit eBay, I'll try them out and update even further on what I think about them.
