CES2008 DAY 3: “Plantronics Lightweight Stereo Bluetooth Headset”

Creative Labs ruled South Hall.  That being said I did find a few things that caught my eye otherwise.

Plantronics Lightweight STEREO Bluetooth Headset
0108081134 This is pretty sick:  It’s a traditional Bluetooth headset for your cell phone that, if you phone supports the A2DP Bluetooth stereo profile, then you can put the "other" headset in and hear everything in stereo if you have music on your Windows Mobile phone.  Perfect!

I have the "monoaural" version of this headset and it’s not just extremely light, it fits very well and it even has a boom mike I believe that "extends the microphone" away from the headset to give you better voice quality when transmitting your voice.

Most of the stereo headsets I’ve seen that were Bluetooth connected look… well… AWFUL.  It’s like because they’re Bluetooth, they have to look crummy and be way too heavy.  This is one of the few headsets I’ve seen that deviate from this.
