What brand and model earphones would you recommend for answering cell phone calls on the iPhone?

I already have a couple of sets for listening to music but I'd like to get a set exclusively for answering phone calls. I prefer a wired set not a Bluetooth earpiece.

TIA for any recommendations.

P.S. The iPhone is a new 3GS model!

The best by far is the combination of the Shure MPA and Shure SE530 earphones. If you find the later to pricey, you can match them with another Shure earphone. Also, only listen to those that own, the cable is not to long when used with SE series headphones, its actually only 3 inches longer then the standard iPhone headphones.

Headphones are like anything there are ones you buy at Wal-Mart, consumer, prosumer and pro. There are headphones that are thousands of dollars, go over to head-fi and post that, you will see that there is a whole other world out there...
