 If nothing else, the MX-W1's look cool. The small leather case houses the untethered earbuds and the transmitter, whichs 5 to 10x times the power of Bluetooth, according to the developer of the technology, Kleer. While we had no source to test sound quality, we were impressed by the earbuds' design and how they remained secure in the ear. Release: June 2008.
Pros: More power than Bluetooth, slick design
Cons: Requires a battery

Kleer announced today that Sennheiser has introduced the industry's first true wireless stereo earphones based on Kleer's wireless audio technology. Sennheiser's new MX W1 wireless earphones deliver CD-quality stereo sound in addition to providing high noise immunity in the crowded 2.4 GHz band environment. All Kleer-based products are fully interoperable, enabling the MX W1 earphones to receive wireless audio from any Kleer-based portable media player. Kleer’s Listen In technology also enables two or more people with a set of MX W1 earphones to listen to the same audio stream at the same time.
Sennheiser claims Kleer's very low audio signal latency, coupled with extremely interference-free transmission, also translates into considerably longer battery life than what you'd get with conventional transmission standards.
Comprised of two sleek ear pieces (untethered right and left earphones), the MX W1 features Sennheiser's "twist-to-fit" system for securing a comfortable fit in each ear. Kleer’s 5–10x power advantage over Bluetooth has enabled Sennheiser to use the smallest rechargeable coin cell battery in the world, allowing for a compact design. The earphones come with a small, matchbox-sized transmitter and transport case which includes an integrated battery that can recharge the earphones when away from home.
The Sennheiser MX W1 will be available in May 2008.
