Good wired headset
Looking for a good wired stereo headset with mic to use with HTC EVO. End up watching video quite often while in flight and currently carry a headset for the phone plus noise canceling headphones. Looking for one piece tat does both. Any stand outs? Saw that Seinheiser had one for "iphone". Not sure if te buttons would work with android or not though.
Looking for wired, not interested in blue-douche.

And this unit from Bose works pretty much the same way:

Not sure if the EVO socket is the same, but this works great with both iPhone and Blackberry 9700 and my Shure 210s.

I was struggling between good sound quality and the need for a mic. I have a headset from BestBuy housebrand with mic but it leaves lot to be desire in the audio quality part as well noise cancellation.
----------------------
Got email confirmation of Bose mic is compatible with QC15 and BB9800. Just place order for one.

I don't know if these work on the EVO, but the sound quality is amazing. Scosche IDR355md are only $50 and have audio controls and a microphone. Should work just fine on the EVO if it has a 3.5mm headphone jack, but don't take my word for it.
