foretell at DEMO 2006 with internet 1.0 exuberance is the Mvox Duo bluetooth headset . It claims to do standard obligation , plus work as a speakerphone , interpreter over IP headset and car kit . In otherwords , its a regular bluetooth headset , but biggie sized to fit a larger verbalizer in spite of appearance . Where should I start talking shit about this cant - fill rake ?

First of all , girlllfriend …
So you cogitate this thing can replace a headset , speakerphone , VOIP headphone , and car outfit ? You ’re order this is a miracle 4 - in-1 machine ?
Look its a bluetooth headset , so no shit it works in the railcar . You just clip it to your heading and you ’re good to go . It connects to a personal computer for enjoyment as a VOIP gadget ? So do all the other decent bluetooth headset .
And the speakerphone thing , ok , so now you ’ve got this metallic element type slug ( 3.0 x 1.1 x 1.2 inches ) on the side of your head capable of 90 Db at about a metrical foot away , and if you tack it on accidentally your eardrum get blasted . OK , Great Idea . Actually , that ’s not fairish to judge a Cartesian product conception by exploiter erroneousness . Here : If I need to use a speakerphone , I ’ll use the one on my cell . ( Most nice cellphones do this , in fact , most that are $ 200 dollars do . Oh , $ 200 happens to be how much this matter costs )
Then there ’s the noise scratch … which most headset have . And build up in phone book . Great , phone account book , except there ’s no monitor to see your numbers , and my sound already has an address playscript , thankyouverymuch . Oh one more lineament it has is the ability to do voice bid … which other gamy remainder headset have . Lastly , WTF is with that belly - up glamour shoot with the FCC tattoo ? look like a beach whale … in a holster . Gadget holster are for douchebag business guys and cowboys with six - hit man .
Argghh ! OK , you have a speakerphone , I get it .
If Mvox or someone else need to explicate the rhyme and rationality behind this widget , I ’m all ears .
I do n’t usually detest middling products , but when a ship’s company tries to pass off something even as something incredible , it rag me . A great deal .
( BTW , theJabra BT800does much of the same , with a concealment , minus the speakerphone , for $ 150 . )
