Macally headset features iPod nano dock
While Apple's iPods get smaller and thinner, Macally's headsets are getting larger. Just plug your iPod nano into the mTUNE-n's integrated dock and you're ready to go. The nano's click wheel remains exposed while docked, but since you can't see what you're doing while wearing the headset, I can't imagine it's easy to control. Of course, I haven't tried it, so I can't really say. The mTUNE-n also ships with a standard 3.5-mm jack for wired listening, and will cost $49.99. Macally says it will begin shipping "soon."

Sure you can hook your iPod nano up to the headphones directly and eliminate cord...but you'll look like a massive dork in the process! Ahh, the trade-offs of a digital lifestyle.

Look like a dork? I can't wait for these things to come out! SO SWEET! They've also got white ones for the Shuffle. I wanna know if they nano ones will come in white, as well.

Sure it looks kinda cool, but I would rather the nano being fully hidden so someone doesn't runby and nab these off my head after seeing the lcd screen.

Yeah. Because that's likely, right?

Who cares? They're on the same blog network. Is there anything that states they can't share stories? TUAW and Engadget don't share the same focus.
I think these look sweet. I like huge cans on my ears. Earbuds just don't do it for me. A hard flap to cover the nano might be handy though...just in case you fling them down and forget the nano is in there.

Yeah... but at 50 bucks it can't be that good...
