V-Moda's Vibe II, platform shoes not included


There must be a fashion-forward young man or woman out there brave enough to sport V-Moda's new Vibe II with Microphone. These stainless steel alloy headphones follow in the footsteps of the popular (and much better looking) Vibe Duo and feature the noise-isolation, in-line handsfree microphone, call and music controls that we expect from the line. In addition, the 'phones possess "solid and tactual sensation comparable to the finest jewelry and watches." Right. If you'd like to see for yourself, these beauts are available for $128, exclusively at the Apple Store.

Keepin' it real fake, part LXXXIV: V-MODA ripoffs for your KIRF-pod


Just as V-MODA's Vibe Duo earbuds got revamped with a new iPhone-friendly music controller, an unnamed set of copycats have surfaced on the web. This painfully bad ripoff manages to ditch the newly acquired music control and it opts for a lovely gold / black color scheme -- you know, so folks are absolutely certain you're rockin' the fakes. Notably, they're said to provide "massive bass" and fit in a "wide range of ears," and while we can't imagine the sound quality being up to snuff, this $3.99 set looks to be the perfect compliment to whatever knockoff DAP you'd surely pair them with.

V-MODA re-ups Vibe Duo headset for iPhone with music control


Anyone who's been repeatedly reaching for a iPod remote control clipped to their wardrobe while using their iPhone -- only to discover that it doesn't exist -- will be delighted to hear that V-MODA has revamped its Vibe Duo headset to add integrated music control. The control button, which seems to be positioned and operated the same way as the one on the iPhone's bundled headset, can be used to fiddle with calls as well as tunes. It's not quite the four or five button set we'd like to be able to track forward, back, play, pause, and change volume, but considering that the iPhone lacks a control socket beside its jack, we'll take what we can get. Get the updated 'phones now for the same $99 as the original.

V-MODA Vibe Duo earbuds class up your iPhone


Just when it seemed like the only option for better iPhone earbuds was to make them yourself, along comes the V-MODA Vibe Duo. Sure, it'll cost you, but for exactly $101 you can trade up to the luxury and style of this sweet-ass trio. The earbud / microphone combo features V-MASQUE dynamic drivers, a noise-canceling technology called BLISS, and (according to the propaganda), "vibrant bass" coupled with "vivacious highs". Clearly a package aimed at those with a taste for the finer things in life (like spending almost 17% of the cost of your phone on earbuds), the Vibe Duo comes with a 24k gold plated connector, leather pouch, six pairs of clear silicon fittings (plus two sets of black), and the assurance that you'll look considerably more classy when speaking to your agent.
