This earpiece set does EXACTLY what it is supposed to do. I have read the other reviews, and would like to discuss some of the bad reviews that almost stopped me from placing my order.
1. "The jack/ plug us not constructed correctly, or may need shaving/cutting to fit"-
Maybe this is an issue for older model Palm handsets, but I have the Centro, and the plug fits snug and secure with no need for fabrication.
2. "Lack of sound quality"-
They sound as great as any other "ear-bud" style earpieces. On a scale of 1-10, I give em a solid 8. Not to mention, the cord is plenty long and DOES include an in-line lapel clip. Any audiophile junkies out there would probably never consider using the Palm as a music device...and if they did, most customers would invest in serious earphones with an adapter.
3. "The earbuds are too big/uncomfortable or too small/ fall out during activity"-
Again, I disagree totally. The earpiece buds are the same STANDARD size as every other earbud on the market today. To keep them from falling out, add the included foam pads.
4. "One cord is longer than the other"-
They were designed this way, so that the mic is close to your mouth. The other designs out there with equal wire lengths require you to lapel clip the mic on your collar. I've even seen people hold the mic with their hands close to their mouth. The Palm earpiece prevents the mic from not being too far from your mouth.
5. "Cheap plastic/ poor construction"-
This earpiece set is 100% OEM genuine Palm branded. This is not a "cheap knock-off. I plan to use them almost daily, so at this price, if they last a year...it was a GREAT investment.
This is how I use my earpiece. Like I said before, I have a Centro. I needed the stereo earpiece because I use my handheld to access my Slingbox. (This is a box that you hook up to your cable/ satellite box, which allows remote TV viewing on my handheld or laptop) I do this because I go the the gym 5 days a week, and I can't stand that 5 out of 5 TV's are nothing but news or junk. So to make a long story short... I watch my favorite program on my palm, in clear stereo, for an hour a day on the treadmill, elliptical, or cycle machine.
In summary:
This earpiece is exactly what you need to enjoy stereo sound on your Palm device. I highly recommend you adding them to your cart now.

I use these wired headsets because bluetooth is too much a pain in the rear to keep charged and to hook up with my Treo.
When I make calls for work, they must go through and work perfectly every time. I can't afford a bluetooth messing the conversation up.
Having an ear piece in each ear is perfect and allows the call to be loud and clear on my end. Because both ears are occupied, background is not distracting at all.

Not impressed...

It works fine once you have it on.
It's a hassel to put it on, keep it on, put it away etc.
The length of the left ear cord is unbelievably short and the other one too long.
It gets tangled very easily and the sponges on the ear buds come off easily.
Once you have it on it works great. The sound quality is pretty good and the person on the other end is able to hear me loud and clear with no static or echo.
One more thing that I noticed is that the normal mic and earphone on my Treo 650 stopped working. Which I suspect is more of a Treo 650 issue manifested by the headset.
