Hello Kitty Bluetooth Headset

Hello Kitty Bluetooth Headset 09/22/2004 08:38 AM

Not one, but two Hello Kitty cellphone peripherals in one day? Be still my heart! The first is from Expansys and is a Bluetooth headset, but not the clip-over-the-ear kind, but the kind you keep in a pocket and then use a corded earpiece with (read: sort of pointless). The other looks quite a bit the same as the first (although it's hard to tell exactly from the tiny picture) but comes in a gift box with what looks like a charger or a in-car unit or something. Oh, and it's white, which means it's designed to compliment Hello Kitty evening wear.

Sony Bluetooth DR-BT1 Headset

Sony Bluetooth DR-BT1 Headset 12/27/2004 01:28 PM

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.

Nokia Bluetooth Picture Headset HS-13w

Nokia Bluetooth Picture Headset HS-13w 09/10/2004 09:26 AM

In all the fuss over the new Nokia fashion phones yesterday, I missed this Nokia Bluetooth Picture Headset (the HS-13w); fortunately, our pal Josh Rubin's keen eye scoped it out. The cool thing about the HS-13w is that it's meant to be worn as a locket, where you can use the built-in color display to look up and dial contacts. That way you can keep Nokia's funky 7280 (or any other Bluetooth-handset compatible Nokia) in your pocket. Pretty slick.

Bluetooth Headset Woes Show Limits

Bluetooth Headset Woes Show Limits 04/09/2004 03:57 PM
Engadget writes about the complexity of just getting Bluetooth headsets to work with Bluetooth cell phones: Can I second this emotion? Bluetooth has two different kinds of remote talking: headset and hands-free. Some phones support one, some the other. Bluetooth in cars uses hands-free, but with some phones not supporting that mode, they won't work with the vehicles. (Bravo, say I. Studies have popped up all over that show that it doesn't matter whether or not you're hassling with the cell phone to reduce your awareness of the road and increase the incidence of accidents. No talking while driving, please, says this bicycle commuter who has frequently almost been hit by cell-phone-enabled drivers--with headsets!) A related woe for Mac OS X users: the OS supports Bluetooth extremely well, and you can use Bluetooth with your cell phone to send SMS, shunt people to voicemail, and to dial. The remarkable Salling Clicker lets you trigger all kinds of operations from and to cell phones, including using a cell phones joystick selector to move a mouse, or using a cell phone's proximity (entering/leaving) to lock a computer down or set an instant-messaging status note to available/away. But if you use your cell phone with your Mac OS X system, you can't use a Bluetooth headset. You have to turn off your OS X Bluetooth connection to re-enable the headset's connection. Even more complicated is using a Bluetooth headset with Apple's iChat, support for which they added recently. The headsets can only pair with a single device. Since the Mac can't shunt sound (yet?) from the headset to your cell phone, you have to repair back and forth to use the headset with iChat and your cell phone. Bluetooth: It's so simple, even a child could swear at it....

Headset: First Details 04/11/2005 08:19 AM

PhoneMag has some initial shots and details of the Plantronics L510S Bluetooth Office Headset that were leaked/shown on the FCC web site. While the 'Office' appellation might lead you to believe this is just for your PC, there's no reason it shouldn't work with most cellular phones. The 'Office' part just means that it has a huge docking station to fit on your spacious, marble desk.

Jabra BT800 Bluetooth Headset Reviewed
(Verdict: Lots of Features, Lots of
Bulk) 04/05/2005 09:18 AM

For the life of me, I can't figure out how to configure my phone to pair with my Bluetooth headset and still ring, which means I miss a lot of calls if I'm not paying attention. The (relatively) new Jabra BT800 headset has a built-in vibrate mode that would alleviate that problem, while giving me another: embarrassment. While the BT800 does feature an integrated LCD Caller ID read-out, it's also sort of huge, which makes my likelihood of wearing it anywhere outside of a tech convention pretty slim. If you don't mind the bulkiness, though, Mobileburn gives it high marks, with good battery life, excellent noise-cancelling features, and decent sound quality.
