any which come with a good selection of tips, both in sizes and type.

Spend at least 30 quid min and go for a strong brand such as ultimate ears, jays, etymotic, shure etc

I have had sennheiser cx 300 which are good but not so good at blocking noise. Super fi pro amazing but big, and now q jays which are tiny, amazing sound but have to keep changing filters as get clogged.

Head -fi.org is a good forum to research more

The Gadget Show are reviewing a selection next week. It might be worth holding out for a week.... or it might not.

Not Philips. Tried them and found them to be pretty much useless.

I've got CX300 II I believe, very good set of headphones, only issue I'm having is the plug has worn out really quickly, so the sound quality often buggers up, especially when you're on the move listening to MP3s etc. Have to give it a good jiggle and hope it connects properly, other than that I'd definately recommend them thumbup

I really recommend the Tour by Dr Dre. I also have a pair of Bose QC3's and the Tours are just as good all round.
