yeah, but better than being around people wearing headsets. i hate it when someone is very close by while in a conversation, using those ear bug things, and looking in your direction. i think they are talking to me at first! can be kinda embarrassing :roadrunner:

Worked for Bond or someone like that didn't it? As for the headset, this won't change that, if anything they will be smaller and less noticeable and still able to pickup voice somehow using the manndibal to transmit the sound perhaps...surely science can/has figured that out to some degree with the R&D of companies like Plantronics.

I think it's cool, but not useful at all considering the already tiny size of current mobile phones and their funtionalities.

I work in a grocery store. I hate it when people wear those in the store cause since I work there I want to answer them but then I look like a jerk cause they're on the phone... But then again they look like jerks too, talking to themselves...
