Will consumers go for smart headphones?

It seems that just about every athlete, rapper, celebrity has their own headphone line -- even Snooki. As my inbox floods with emails about new headphone models, it's clear that the Consumer Electronics Show has become headphone season. 

Just this week, America’s favorite backup quarterback, Tim Tebow, announced a partnership for a new Tebow SOUL headphone (rumor has it the headphones won’t play on Sundays). And while we can all appreciate a new pair of buds or noise cancelers, let's face it: Headphones have become the new celebrity perfume. 

There is, however, one new headphone you should be genuinely excited about, especially for those who use them while working out. The iriver ON is the first Bluetooth audio headset powered by Valencell’s PerformTek Precision Biometrics, which is a licensable sensor technology.
