Looking for Earbuds w/Volume Control and Pause Button

Title says it all. Would like a pair of 3.5M earbuds that have both volume control and pause/mute button. Willing to spend as necessary depending on quality. All suggestions appreciated. Thanx.

Chris,

Just wanted to say thanx for the advice and detailed response. Took your advice, uninstalled the MSDict app and both the back-up and install of 4.5 went without a hitch.

Again, thanx!

Ringtones via BT Headset

Couldn't think of a better title. Sorry. Had the 8100 and got frustrated waiting for an updated OS that would permit stereo BT. Moved to RAZR and BT works fine. But it's a RAZR and I always longed...

Check the Verizon stand in the nearest Circuit City. I brought a pair and they do exactly what you're looking for in addition to sounding great. A little pricey at $30, but well worth it.
