In this interview with Etymotic’s Dr. Mead Killion, we discuss the introduction of their new in your ear Bluetooth earphones. At around an ounce, their new ETY-8 Bluetooth earphones free you from cable constraints, however they required Etymoic to overcome a number of technological hurdles before they were ready for prime-time. Etymotic is a seminal force in the creation and adoption of high-quality in your ear earphones, and if you have wondered at what it takes for a new technology like Bluetooth to make the leap to high-fidelity, then listen to this interview. Recorded at the Macworld Conference and Expo in San Francisco, in January 2007 by Harris Fogel. Posted 3/4/2007 (7:31)
