Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a pair of quality headphones that aren't seemingly made of glass. I'm an avid BMXer which causes me to frequently bash on any type of technology that joins me for my daily riding. I've been through the higher quality headsets in the Skullcandy line as these are supposed to be built for "abuse," which is laughable. I cant wear earbuds or canal buds, as my large ears seem to have a repelling property upon anything that sits in them. Wired or Bluetooth doesn't really matter, but I need something that can hold up to taking a few hits every now and again. I'm trying to keep 'em under $150. Thanks!"
Korean standardization authorities mandated all phones sold in Korea be able to run WIPI (yet another Java-based mobile phone application framework similar to Java ME and BREW) -based applications.
RIM was unable to re-engineer BB's OS to meet the WIPI standards, and was not able to market its devices in Korea.
With the advent of smartphones, carriers started complaining to the regulator mandating the now-antiquated WIPI platform on all devices is unreasonable, and the government recently agreed to scrap the requirement.
