A fruitless headset search?

I have been on a fruitless search for a headphone/headset combination for my new phone. What follows is back story, skip to the bottom if you don't want to read it.
I recently upgraded my phone after 5ish+ years of using a motorola ic502. The primary motivation I had for doing so was the death of my equally old ipod. I wanted a new phone that could also be my ipod. So I went out, and got a free evo in exchange for a 2 year contract with sprint. I already purchased an aftermarket battery to help with its crappy battery life. Battery link here.
Now I am in search for a headset that will handle my calls and music. I have had a pair of senn pmx60s forever and I love them.
So what I would love would be a similar wrap around, open air, headphones with a mic and a little button to answer/hangup calls/pause/play music. Unfortunately no such product seems to exist so I thought I'd ask the super knowledgeable penny arcade tech forum. There has to be someone else that wanted a headset like this.... then again maybe not.
I've done many a google/amazon search looking for something like this but I cant find anything that fits. The closest thing is these but apparently the sound quality is bad.

I'ma look into this.
Edit:
Looks like I have a new project: http://www.tested.com/news/how-to-make-any-pair-of-headphones-smart-phone-capable/2292/
"Was cursing, in broken english at his team, and at our team. made fun of dead family members and mentioned he had sex with a dog."
"Hope he dies tbh but a ban would do."
Only issue I have is that they aren't very good for running with, which is a shame.
As a sidenote, your topic reads funny to me.

But they are quite good.
Satans..... hints.....
Yeah, it works without hiccup on a smooth pace, but if I really pick it up, it will cut in and out.
It's quite possible a glitchy headset or something in th iPhone.
