Think twice before buying

I made the mistake of buying these as a replacement for my Oakley Thump Pro glasses. My thump pro's are on their second trip back to Oakley to get fixed because they just stop working. For some reason I thought an upgrade would make it all better.
I decided to upgrade so I could stream direct from my ipod. The reviews said that the O Rokr pro would stream music even if my ipod was in my backpack.
Here is what they really did:
1. Music and phone calls were choppy and the only way to fix it was to wear my ipod on my arm and put my phone on my hip. I bought the best bluetooth transmitter I could find and it still wouldn't allow me to store my ipod in my backpack.
2. The music control buttons stopped working after a couple of weeks. So much for skipping songs.
3. They have now completely stopped working I can't even get them to turn on. So I am now faced with dealing with Oakley again, which at best is difficult.
I plan to return these and get a pair of bluetooth headphones. This is way too expensive of a toy to have this many problems with.
