The Perfect Headphones

For many years, people have yearned for, nay, CRAVED the perfect headphones. According to IFLScience.com, this craving is finally being addressed tenfold. Created by German start-up company Bragi, "The Dash" earbuds are the world's first wireless, waterproof ear buds. You may do a double take on that last sentence.
    
Bragi was able to make these wonders of modern technology via a Kickstarter campaign, where they raised almost 3.5 million dollars by only 16,000 backers. Money well-funded, as not only are the ear buds wireless (a beauty itself) and waterproof, but they also have 4GB of music storage, can play music by Bluetooth connection to a device, have excellent noise-cancelling capabilities, act as a fitness trainer, have an accelerometer to control them via hand gestures (these keep getting better and better), can tell you what the weather is going to be like if you look up, and can answer a phone call if you nod


They come to markets in April, with an acceptable price of $299. Acceptable is used fittingly, as these ear buds have all of these features, along with being lightweight and waterproof to up to one meter. I wouldn't mind paying $299, if I had that kind of money. Be on the lookout for these beauties in April.
