I use my laptop in bed and when I get lazy I lie on my side, but I have to take out the earbud that I'm lying on because it gets uncomfortable. I'm currently using the Brainwavz M1
 
Are there any IEMs that can be used comfortably while lying sideways?
 
I like the sound of the Soundmagic E30 better than my Brainwavz M1. I prefer right-angle headphone jacks. Budget is $60.

What you need my friend is the Phillips SHE3580

 Just what the doctor ordered. It's your life's destiny to embrace true sound at a budget price. Many members own this IEM and if you read here you will see why. 




HAIL the mighty SHE3580!

JVC HA-FX40. It sounds fantastic and is only $20. It doesn't have  stems.

JVC FXC50, FXC51, Sony EX310, V-Moda Remix, Klipsch S4 are great to wear when lying on side and all sound pretty good for the price.

Thanks for the suggestions so far. I especially like the GR06 because it looks very low profile while in the ear and has a 90 degree jack. 
 
The Soundmagic PL50 also looks small and has a right angle jack. How does it compare with previous recommendations in terms of lying down comfort?
 
How does the PL50 compare to the GR06 (in terms of comfort)?

The Philips SHE3580 is very small Semi IEMs and they are good sounding and JVC FX40 are also small, comfy and good sounding for the price.

The SHE3580 is there abouts the the same size as CX300ii, They tuck away neatly in the earcanal, you can hardly see them. I have used them in bed, you can easily lye on your side without knowing they're there, no pressure at ll.. Plus they sound pretty damn good.

Here's a picture of them next to my Clip+
