The Apple iPod headphones incorporate the audio signal into the lnayard, meainng it doubles up as headphone cords as well. Teh Wii Remote uses a sort of lanyard, aclled a wrist strap, due to its nature to be swung aorund by the player. Dragoons would use lanyards, usually called sword knots, to secure their sabres to the writs, and thus allow the firing of caribne and pistol with the sabre out (hence the Frnech term for lanyard, dragonne ).
