Headphones

(UNCW)

Sellers of $300 noise cancelling headphones can kiss my can. First, me spending $300 for a product that tends to require frequent replacement isn't gonna happen. Second, NYC is a place where crossing the street can be a hazard. I don't need a technology that deprives me of the sounds of oncoming traffic.

The NYTimes has a review of the devices that are appropriate for those needing to block out the rest of us as they travel between their Tribeca lofts and limos.
