Hi all,
When I went to sign up for my AT&T service, the very knowledgable salesman and my wife fell into a discussion about his bluetooth device, which my sighted wife said was unlike anything she had ever seen. He told us that it was an LG Tone Infinim, and in his opinion he would never go back to a standard ear-piece. This device is shaped like a horse-shoe, and sits on your shoulders, encompassing 300 degrees or so around your neck, with the open portion facing directly forward. Each arm has controls on the top and the sides (lots of actual buttons), and the mike is built into one of the arms. But best of all are the ear-buds which nestle in small nooks at the end of each arm, and are attached with spring-loaded 10 inch long wires. When not in use, you press a button and they automatically retract back into the device, so nothing is in your ear to impeed your hearing. When you get a call (the device will vibrate if you set it up that way, and it will also vibrate if you begin to walk away from your phone), you simply grab an earbud and pull it out and insert into your ear. If you want better sound, or to listen to music, you pull both out. The controls on the right arm are dedicated to controlling audio (fast forward, rewind, pause/play), and the controls on the other are volume/vibrate and interface with Siri so you can give verbal commands. I've waited a couple of months before I said anything here because I wanted to be sure I also thought it was enormously better than a standard ear-piece, and absolutely I think it is. It comes in any number of colors (my wife's opinion is that the silver/gray is the most professional looking), and having it around my neck doesn't bother me at all. I do get a lot of compliments on how it looks, and a lot of requests for demos. A charge lasts about 3 days. I find the audio quality excellent, but admit to not being an expert on the audio quality of all bluetooth devices, so I'm putting a review link below, and an Amazon link to the silver for $90 also. I have to admit my wife and I had each already purchase other bluetooth headsets, and we don't know what we're going to do with them, but we're using this from now on.
