Pet peave #306. People who walk around with Bluetooth devices in their ear when they are not in use.
In NYC Bluetooth headsets are everywhere. Even in the subways where cell phones don't even effen work! /see above
After seeing so many people with them, I finally decided to jump into the BT headset game with the Blue Ant T8. With which no one could hear me. It was useful for driving or walking around the house, but after repeated complaints, I just gave up.
While in J&R Music World one day, I asked the cellphone sales person what her opinion was of the current line of Bluetooth headsets. She advised that the Alph Jawbone Bluetooth headset was the best. And my subsequent research turned up reviews by many owners that agreed.
This headset was rated an 8.7 out of 10 and an Editor's Choice by Cnet.com. Yes, it is pretty strange looking, but still somewhat attractive.
Did I buy one? Eh... no.
If only because the price was too steep ($129) to justify in my opinion.
But The Cheapskate has found a sweet deal at eCost where the Aliph Jawbone Bluetooth headset is currently on sale for $64 (plus shipping).
Most probably because there will be a new device coming out very soon.
Can you hear me now? Yes! Yes! STFU Already!
