Sony Ericcson headphones for k810i with radio

Options
At the weekend someone half inched my coat and with it went my heaphones for my new K810i.

Can anyone advise which model(s) of sony ericsson headphones are suitable for listening to the fm radio. I use that a lot so the replacement ones need to have the built in aerial in the wire.

Thanks.

    I bought one of them off ebay and just plug in my normal headphones for listening to stuff, obviously no mic on my headphones though which is a bit annoying. 99p plus a couple pounds postage.


    Or you can buy the official sony headphones for the walkman phones which I'm sure have the same connection like the one above. The walkman earphones are really comfortbale compared to the ones that don't go into your ear canal that you get with the K models. I can't remember the model number so I can't find a link but they are about £18 which the built in mic etc.

    Thanks both. I went for the HPM70 model in the end - not the latest (which is HPM75) but was good value for my £10 or so on good old fleabay. I have subsequently been told that all the sony headphones have built in antenna for the headphones so I decided to stick with their own brand.

    No additional antenna, they simply use the headphone wiring for the antenna.
