I am going to take advantage of the vast experience that is possessed by the members of this forum to ask a question concerning earphones for the Tungsten E.

What earphone set you recommend for the Tungsten E? I need something lightweight and hard to break as I have to store it in a backpack when I am not using it. I also need one with minimal leakage of sound as I often listen to my Palm on the commute bus or on the airplane. Thus I do not wish to disturb whoever is sitting next to me.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions you all may have.

I recommend the Sony MDR-A35G S2 Sports headphones. They are the vertical in-ear type, and they fold up. They sound great, are designed to water resistant, and have a decent amount of bass. Sony has free shipping as well.

The ones I use, (a little pricey, list= ~$100.00), have excellent sound and do not leak sound out to others. Sony MDR-NC11 noise canceling headphones. The best phones I have ever used!

Thanks for the information. I will definitely check into the one you suggested. Sorry for the typos in my original Email as I was in a hurry when I wrote it. Alas, see what happens when I rush and do not preview the Email? :-)
