Altec Lansing has a new set of gaming headphones, the AHS602s, with now-ubiquitous boom mike and "SRS 3-D Audio," which is not to be mistaken with actual surround sound but instead more than likely is yet another slightly-out-of-phase stereo technology (which works well enough, but I'm just saying). For a hundred bills the 40mm neodymium drivers - some call them speakers - better sound pretty swell. You can get a nice pair of closed-ear headphones for half that, then throw in any random boom bike for $5.

Altec Lansing's inMotion system provides iPod users with an easily portable audio system to take with them when they travel. Now Altec Lansing has done the same for iPod mini users with their new iMmini. Forty-one percent smaller than inMotion, the iMmini features digital amplification, neodymium micro drivers and "MaxxBass" technology for US$129.95.

Kenneth Armstrong writes: Today Altec Lansing announced their bizarrely named iMmini (no that's not a typo; I checked 8 times) speakers for iPod mini. It is similar in styling to their InMotion Speakers for iPod, but about 40% smaller.

"We're delighted that Altec Lansing is bringing out another breakthrough accessory with the iMmini to provide a great sound system designed specifically for the incredibly successful iPod mini." said Greg Joswiak, Apple's vice president of Hardware Product Marketing. (The press release doesn't mention what industrial plastics were insufflated before approving the name.)

The iMmini is priced at $129.95 and will be available "late summer" at the Apple online store as well as at their brick-and-mortar stores.

Go old school with your iPod and blast these super-slick portable speakers around the playground. Speaker specs are pretty nice: 1-inch tweeters, two 3-inch mid-range drivers, a 4-inch subwoofer and a 4-inch passive radiator (?) and it runs on eight D batteries, just like the old timey boomboxes of yore.

Altec Lansing has been putting out some nice product lately, so there's no reason to think this will be a clunker. Priced at about $249, seems like a nice way to get portable sound out of your iPod.

Lansing PL Is Shifting!

Lansing PL Is Shifting! 04/10/2005 12:47 AM

Another one of my member libraries has been shifting like crazy lately, but I just recently realized how far. The Lansing Public Library started with blogs, four of them to be exact, which of course gives them RSS feeds. (Well, when Blogger is working these days, it does, but that’s not LPL’s fault.)

Then Kelli Staley emailed me that they’ve been doing the instant messaging thing, too. Since October. Aaron, they’re drinking your Kool-Aid! I especially like that they’re using icons on their pages to indicate presence (online versus offline), which is IM’s big strength. Kelli wrote, “Our library is on 2 levels, so we have separate screen names for different age groups. AskLPLAdult, AskLPLTeen, AskLPLYouth (we're on Yahoo & AOL).” She went on to note that a few weeks ago, they received IMs from students in Florida and Ohio. Those two requests are from students who couldn’t IM their local library. Can your students IM yours?

But LPL didn’t stop there, as the next message from Kelli illustrated:

“Lansing Public Library has partnered with the office of Illinois State Treasurer Judy Baar Topinka to offer a new service called E-Pay. The E-Pay program was launched by Topinka’s office in 2000 under a state master services agreement that is available for all counties and local governments in Illinois to participate in. ‘We are pleased to help move the library into the 21^st century.’ Assistant Library Director Patricia Higgins said, ‘Our E-Pay electronic payment service will provide greater convenience to the community and increase the services offered by the library.’

The Library’s E-Pay service has started with fee payment and donations to Friends of Lansing Public Library. E-Pay will allow you to make your payments over the Internet with cardholders of MasterCard, American Express and Discover card brands. A transaction, or user fee, is added to the payment amount for the convenience of the Internet service. The state and local participants who use this program do not receive any revenue from the convenience fee.”

I can't tell if Seidio's new 2 in 1 Headset is only for the Treo 600 or if they're just capitalizing on that smartphone's success, but either way the combination headphones/phone headset looks pretty decent, with one touch call answering, and in-line volume control and all the other things you'd expect from a hands-free kit. Plus, they sort of match the Treo's look, because they're both made of plastic.

Sony's new Bluetooth headset the DR-BT1 is an odd-looking unit. I can't decide if I like it or not. In general, big boom microphones aren't appealing to me, but the chrome and black plastic isn't unattractive. Feature-wise, it has all the standard bits, and is available from Sony directly for $130.

Put Down the Phone and Drive (and Take

Put Down the Phone and Drive (and Take
Off the Headset, Too) 07/19/2004 04:44 PM
The Wall Street Journal reports on research showing hands-free cell phone talking while driving is unsafe at any speed: This is a purely public service announcement I make today: if you'd like to dramatically reduce your odds of finding yourself in an accident, don't talk on a cell phone while driving regardless of whether you're holding it or using a hands-free system. The cellular industry doesn't like it, sure, but the growing body of research reviewed in this article makes it clear that talking on a cell phone while driving has a significantly different impact on your ability to stay focused on the road than any other activity, including listening to the radio or talking to passengers. As the Car Talk guys bumper sticker says (see upper right), Drive Now, Talk Later! Studies to the contrary turn out not to be to the contrary, and have had the usual PR spin put on them. You know why we have anti-bacterial soap all across the U.S.? Because of a single study done on the cleanliness of street vendors in Mexico. It all traces back to that. A public-health crisis, producing more and more resistant strains of bacteria, results from companies choosing to use limited information to promote a message instead of performing more science to determine appropriate ways to market their products. The same is true here: cell companies could promote safer uses of phones, but their money is in pushing minutes (at the moment). When cell operators finally switch to unlimited monthly plans, they'll want people to talk less, just as AOL did when they switched from hourly billing to unmetered monthly service. When that switch happens, you can bet we'll see a 100-percent full-court press on restricting talking at all while driving. As a regular bike commuter, I am often in a position to see cars clearly perform precision bad driving maneuvers. About 95 percent of the time, the driver is talking on a cell phone. When I see someone driving erratically -- bad lane position, no signal, strange turns, sudden acceleration -- I start biking even more defensively. When I pass them or them me, I see them talking on a cell phone. This is anecdotal on my part, and I'm glad the science backs me up. It also tells me that when I see people driving poorly and they look like they're not on a cell phone,...

Crappy Headset Business

Crappy Headset Business 08/28/2004 01:03 AM

More bad shopping experiences.  Recently, I bought Plantronics MX10, an phone amplifier that connects to computer for multimedia works and VOIP, along with a Telex H-51 headset.  Actually, I got the Hello Direct Virtuoso before that but returned it in favor of MX10.

When I received it, I realized that MX10 requires headsets with a special type of connector called Quick-Disconnect (QD).  Note that Quick-Disconnect headsets are two to 9 times more expensive than normal computer headsets.After a bit of grumbling, I ordered a Symphony headset from Headsets.com because it was cheaper than Plantronics headsets of comparable quality.

When I got the Symphony headset, I hooked it all up but couldn't hear the dial tone.  Hmm.  I tested the headset by hooking it up directly to my phone.  There wasn't any problem with the headset.  I tried everything, even talking to Plantronics' very nice clueless tech person.  Only conclusion I could make was that MX10 was defective.  So off it went back to Amazon.

Today, the replacement MX10 arrived.  I hooked it all up again but same symtoms.  I switched to a different phone and was rewarded with very distant dial tone.  Amplifier that weakens signal?  I called Headsets.com tech support this time and got the disgusting insider news:

Headsets and phone amplifiers from different manufacturers are not compatible with each other although they all use Quick-Disconnect connectors.

Huh?  That means Plantronics amplifiers like MX10 works only with Plantronics headsets and Symphony headsets will work only with Symphony amplifiers.  The fact that they use same connector form factor is just meaningless.

Totally disgusted, I packed up everything except the Telex H-51 and scheduled a UPS pickup tommorrow.  Since I ordered a telephony enabled modem with my new computer, I am gonna use that instead of fancy but insane phone equipment.  I don't know why I haven't thought of this before.  After all, I have written a sophisticated telephony app for a client nearly ten years ago.  Maybe I'll even write a telephony app that will put these crappy companies out of business.

Wow, from the tenor of their press release you'd think these guys conquered cancer or caught a fly in some chopsticks or something, what with their 'revolutionary's and their 'radical's and their 'breakthrough's; I was all hepped up, but it turns out the Aliph Jawbone is just a telephone headset, and a wired one at that, designed to filter out background noise and provide clear voice pickup even in noisy environments like trading floors. Now if Aliph had a commercial where this long-haired muscle man cleaves through legions of Canaanites with a giant-sized version of the headset, only pausing to look at the camera, covered in gore, as he raises his oversized Jawbone headset to heaven where, panning up, we see God dialing a number (maybe eating a hoagie and he has a Jets jersey on), and then right in the middle of battle Samson gets a call on his Jawbone headset and God can totally hear him above the din of battle, well, that'd be the sort of fucking awesome that's going to sell a $150 headset, people.
