Wifey told me just last week that she simply couldn’t exist any longer without a bluetooth headset, so that she didn’t have to be connected to the computer while she’s Skyping the folks back home. And, being the diligent, subservient husband that I am, I noticed there was a $10 mail-in rebate from Buy.com, so I ordered one for her. (Ohh, and I’ve just noticed it’s gone up by another $10 – looks like I bought at the right time!)
Thus far, the headset has proved fairly good, though my major complaint has been that it’s not very loud. Then again, I’m very much used to Skyping using our premium corded headset, which not only is top-of-the line (in terms of Logitech’s lineup, anyway) but also benefits from having 2 speakers.
Still, you can’t beat the freedom that cordless devices offer. And the range is brilliant, certainly more than enough to cover pretty much anywhere in our apartment (about 10 – 12 metres). And since BlueTooth is built into our laptop, we don’t need any special adapters to get it running. Even bigger bonus, it’s completely compatible with my mobile phone!
Not bad for $30, eh?

Grant also recently bought a head set because he has “phone to ear” so much. He loves it too! Although he has complained about the lack of volume…
Yep, sure is a bargain for $30!
