Replug: MagSafe for your headphones

Apple's MagSafe is a great feature that has saved many a Mac portable from crashing to the floor from a trip over the power cord. Now the Replug extends the same basic idea to protecting your headphone jack. Basically the device has two parts: the interface that plugs into the audio device jack, and then a separate connector jack into which you plug your headphones. Just like the MagSafe the two parts of the Replug are joined magnetically and thus easily separate if you yank on the 'phones (e.g. by standing up). The Replug should work with any standard 1/8" audio jack.

The Replug "will be in stock and ready to ship this fall."
