I order from monoprice.com Item # 5873 Premium Earphones w/ Mic for Apple iPod iPhone 3GS, $3.28@. Don't hold up as well as the real deal, but for this price, you can afford to replace them.

I actually just noticed you commented on the iTouch Schoolwide Implementation program and I think I'll check that out as we're trying to figure out in at least one district the best way to get apps for new iPad and iTouch class sets.
