Gadgetell | Tech News, Reviews, and Interesting Things

Sennheiser is offering a trade-in program of sorts for your old headphones. Whether “new, old, broken or used” all you have to do is choose the style of headphones that you want to purchase, fill out their form, gather up your old headphones and mail them in. The trade-in value depends not on the style of headphones that you are sending in, but on the style that you are getting from Sennheiser. The value will range from $5 for Street Earbuds up to $25 for Noise Canceling models. So if you were thinking about replacing those nasty or broken headphones, Sennheiser may be worth checking out. The trade-in offer is valid from April 1 through July 31.

Nothing too overly exciting about noise canceling headphones, even Bluetooth ones, at CES, except for the fact that it seems like no one has actually seen these great looking HP noise-canceling Bluetooth headphones at CES which would tend to indicate that they are still with the FCC for approval.

From the picture they look more than your typical headphones with the ability to control your MP3 player via some pretty easy to use buttons from the look of things. So for now picture only, but hopefully we will soon see them out in the wild.
