What are the odds they just cancel the product? I haven't seen much excitement for them (since they're pricey and can be so easily lost), and if they're having trouble making them, I could see them just cancelling them and going back to the drawing board.

> Sure: Mainly it means that Apple is struggling with their supply chain They haven't clarified if it's a software or hardware issue yet, so we can't say that for sure.
On a higher level, software is part of the supply chain. The only difference is that the vendor is a internal business unit.
Hopefully the delay is a chance for the product designers to go back to the drawing board. I simply cannot fathom why anyone would want to own a pair.
Personally, I am more of an in-ear earphones user, so I am more drawn to e.g. Bragi earphones, but even then I am missing the option of custom in-ear moulds, so I am sticking with shure audio drivers + Westone bluetooth cable. I do welcome Apple entrance because I could see how they might be able to push development of the sector and some advances.

I have tested at least a dozen Bluetooth-headphones for sports (running, gym, etc.) and they all died due to sweat after max. 2 months. Anyone has a good suggestion? (was really looking forward to buying the AirPods even though not sure about sweat-resistance...)
I really, really want wireless earbuds to be a thing, but every choice I've tried is just so damn crappy.
I really do hope that Apple can pull this off, because the field of wireless earbuds is begging for some disruption.
