We spared you the “wireless” joke, but to be fair, that’s precisely what we’re looking at: Elecom’s Actrail headphones are wireless, Bluetooth-less ear muffs designed for your miniature Apple-borne MP3 player. Only the latest iPod shuffle is officially supported, but we’re betting some of the previous generations could fit in just fine.
