Not thrilled with the Apple headset that comes with the new iPod shuffle? Not a problem – multiple headset vendors are expected to come out with their own models that will be compatible with the new control functions of the shuffle. Etymotic Research will be one of those companies as they’ve announced that upcoming models will feature the new integrated control functions allowing users to play, pause, control the volume, and utilize the new VoiceOver feature of the iPod shuffle. The only problem? No word on when exactly these models will be coming out.
