I wasn't gonna go for a noise-cancellation option, those are the ones that send out an opposing signal to cancel out all the noise around you. Instead, noise-isolation is basically earplugs + earphones, so this should do the trick.
Here's the ones I was looking at, mostly based on What HiFi's reviews, and some comparative reviews on PCMagazine, CNet and a few other sites. I also read a bunch of User Reviews, and I've found those actually tend to be pretty good too, especially the Amazon.com ones.
Here's the general list:
- Shure SE110 (What HiFi 5/5, Best in-ear headphones for 2007)
http://whathifi.com/Review/Shure-SE110/ - Shure SE115 Couldn't find the SE110's on Amazon, but I found the newer version (Also 5/5 on What HiFi)

(Note following this post from last night: B&H is a fantastic store and well worth your support. They are closed on Jewish holidays and on Friday night-Sat night for the sabbath, but it's always well worth ordering from them. Their support and quality of service is unmatched! I bought my camera and lenses from them, as well as other electronics like these headphones. Their price is usually matched or very close to other online retailers, but personally I really like supporting this company. I like their attitude, and I love their quality.)
Cables look pretty solid
They look sweet
