I don't think the headset itself is ugly. My problem with the carrying case is that it looks like a mound of cheap rubber with a red piece of licorice wrapped around it. Just keep the colors gray and black with only the lettering in red.
You picked the wrong guy to pull the fanboy card on, and exposed yourself as a fanboy in the process. I've had my PS3 since launch day and was first in line for it as I stayed overnight. I've had a 360 since April 2006 and have turned it on a total of 6 times in the last 8 months. I have more games for my PS3 than I do my 360. I buy multi-platform games on the PS3. I have a pre-order in for the limited edition (or whatever it's called) of MGS4. There's not one game I know of that is coming out for the 360 in the future that I am planning on buying (the last one I bought was Halo 3). There are at least 8 games in the next year and a half I will be buying for the PS3. I imported the white Dual Shock 3 and just received my 250GB hard drive to upgrade my PS3.
All in all, I imagine I'm a bigger fan of the PS3 than you are. And guess what, I still think the carrying case is ugly. View a couple comments above to see my thoughts on the actual headset.
Drop your fanboy goggles. Not every comment on video games is a thinly veiled effort to say one side is better than the other.
I think you've somehow turned yourself from just a regular fanboy into super fanboy.
But, no matter. Your right, the earpiece is crappy lookin. You'd expect something a bit sexier if we're talkin future tech type games. What about the mic system that wraps around your neck like the marines have!?

Easily the ugliest carrying case I've ever seen.
What were you expecting? the sexiest carrying case in the world for an ugly device?

Uh that still makes you a fanboy Scott, sorry.
