My earbud preference is the kind that sticks into your ears like plugs. I can't stand the traditional iPod style ones that just sort of hang there.
Plus, they give better noise isolation, and therefore, usually, better volume and sound quality.
The kind I like best are "whichever ones are on sale for under $10."
When I wan't more isolation or more comfort, I use big over the ear headphones. Currently I'm using some $29 Koss ones from Best Buy. They're fine.
The inline volume is a great idea. You can just leave the Fire on full blast and control it with a real lever.
And yes, the microphone headsets do indeed work in some apps...here's hoping for full implementation of that in a future update.
Those powered speakers, small though they might be, would seem to be unwieldy in the gym, and are likely to bug the people next to you....
