The announcement of AirPods finally got me to unpack my EarPods. They feel a bit weird, very precarious, and are so hard that if they’re not the same shape or size as your ear, they just won’t work. I like lots of things about Apple stuff, but they do seem to assume that everyone is a medium-sized man.

They don’t sound too bad, but the fit is so approximate that I’d be really nervous about them falling out if they weren’t attached by wires.
