I’m not a big fan of Bluetooth headsets in most instances. Sure they are welcome and much safer when driving in a car than holding your phone up to your ear. However, when you are walking around at the mall just stop being lazy and put the phone up to your ear so we don’t all think you are crazy.

That said I realize some people won’t stop using them when walking at the mall, so this is for you. Sound ID announced its latest Bluetooth headset today called the HD300. Sound ID says that the device was created with the help of hearing specialists and top acoustic scientists.

Here’s something you don’t see everyday. The Bluetooth Dental Insert Microphone is described as the “ultimate bluetooth handsfree”. It’s a super small microphone packaged with solar panel and battery to provide the most portable unit yet. The composite resin filling is designed to fit in a hole 2.2mm in diameter and 1.7 mm deep(presumably replacing a tooth.) and it will pick up sound and vibrations from your mouth thereby producing super clear sound.

The earpiece features replaceable rubber grips and attractive chrome inserts and is compatible with all Bluetooth capable phones with Handsfree and Headset profiles. No word on pricing just yet, but the Bluetooth Dental Insert Microphone will be available soon from those wacky people over at Chinavision. As they point out, “All dental work should be performed by a qualified dentist, Chinavasion does not take responsibility for injury resulting from the installation of this product”.

Jabra has launched a somewhat interesting looking bluetooth set. The BT3030 resembles the famous dog tag, worn by the likes of Rambo and and the rest of the army. I haven’t seen the latest Rambo movie, but if he wanted to be a bit more like Bond, he’d have something like this.

It comes with bluetooth 2.0+EDR, HSP, HFP, A2DP and AVRCP support, six buttons for sending / ending calls and controlling music playback, as well as volume control. Get the BT303 next month in Japan or the U.S for $90. I would imagine this gives the army some ideas about updating the original dog tag.

Callpod, makers of that slick looking ChargePod (that really works as good as it looks), has launched the Drone as another piece of convenience for connecting your gadgets. The Callpod Drone is a Bluetooth adapter about the size of a typical thumb drive and plugs into the USB port of a computer.

Once connected the Drone will automatically find and pair with your Bluetooth headset or headphones and give you a 100 meter range of wireless streaming for VoIP phone calls or music. Now granted, once you pair Bluetooth devices manually the first time you are usually set from then on, but we can’t complain for making things just that much easier. The adapter also Plug & Play, works with Macs and PCs and allows you to automatically switch from music to calls when the come in.

It’s amazing that the CB radio has not already been given the Bluetooth treatment. Well, now there is a Bluetooth-enabled CB radio, so the CB can keep on truckin’. 10-4 good buddy. Cobra Electronics 29 LTD BT CB radio is Bluetooth-enabled, allowing truckers everywhere(and others of course) to receive cell phone calls wirelessly into the CB unit.

It even comes with a noise canceling microphone perfect for truckers. Those trucks aren’t exactly quiet you know. Tactile controls let the driver feel where the dial currently is in its rotation, so the driver no longer has to take his eyes off the road. The 29 LTD BT will be available this summer for $189.95. Until then, I’ll catch ya on the flip side. Keep the bugs off yer glass and the bears off yer tail.

Although the picture might make it look bigger, this little Bluetooth adapter from Tokyo’s Princeton corporation actually measures just 23mm x 4.5mm x 14mm. It connects via USB 2.0 your computer to give you a wireless Bluetooth connection with a range of around 300 feet.

We’re thinking that this one might still be slightly longer than the MOGO Bluetooth adapter but without a doubt kicks its but in range. The Princeton adapter has the fast Bluetooth speed of 3Mbps and is expected to hit shelves sometime next month for ¥2,980 (around $28).

Philips has a new headset announced at CES last week that promises to bring quality sound from your mobile music-playing handsets as well as clear calls through a wireless Bluetooth connection. The SHB9000 Bluetooth headset features 40mm neodymium speakers and native MP3 decoding which according to Philips makes the sound quality the “best-ever”.

Be that as it may, the headphones also have SwitchStream letting you switch between incoming calls and music seamlessly, and also offer a subtle “side-tone” that lets you hear your own voice while talking on the phone as you would normally without wearing headphones. If you’ve ever talked on the phone while wearing over-the-ear headphones like these you’ll appreciate this feature. They also will auto adjust the volume based on surrounding noise and filter out background noises and echoes.

Parrot has been showing off some interesting new Bluetooth-related products at CES this week. One which has been catching a lot of attention are the Parrot DS1120 speakers, priced at around $280.

The Parrot DS1120 speakers have an interesting look about them and are capable of playing back through the Bluetooth A2DP profile audio being streamed over from a viable source. For those devices which do not have this profile integrated, Parrot includes a Bluetooth 2.0 USB dongle which can be connected for broadcast. There is also a standard RCA line-in connection for other devices.

Here’s another Spykee robot to go along with your Spykee Vox and the Spykee Miss. I won’t comment on what it looks like he is doing to that iPhone from behind, that’s his business.

The Spykee Cell is another build-it-yourself robot from Meccano. It’s remote controlled via Bluetooth from a cellphone and can move and snap pictures, then transmit them back to your cellphone for storage. The loudspeaker module gives it the capability of becoming a hands-free set, if you want to speak and hear through the robot.

BlueAnt has another wireless Bluetooth product on deck this year at CES in addition to the M1 Speaker with the BlueAnt V1 wireless Bluetooth headset. BlueAnt gave their existing Z9 Bluetooth headset a little upgrade in looks and a big upgrade in technology.

The BlueAnt V1 headset’s most significant feature that helps it stand out from large crowd of Bluetooth headsets is it’s voice control. According to the company this is the world’s first voice controlled Bluetooth headset as it attempts to do away with the different combination of button presses that are necessary to control different functions on most similar headsets.

Australia based BlueAnt recently unveiled a new wireless Bluetooth speaker this week at CES in Las Vegas, bringing a quality Bluetooth speaker product that’s completely wireless for a $199 price tag. The price point on the BlueAnt M1 might be a little higher than other wireless speakers for your portable devices, but BlueAnt’s goal is to “…fill lack of good quality portable stereo speakers in a market that is saturated with cheap, terrible sounding boom boxes.”, according to BlueAnt CEO Taisen Maddern.

The BlueAnt M1 features an output of 28 watts RMS, rechargeable batteries that will run the device for around 10 hours at a medium volume level, and is compatible with any Bluetooth A2DP device including computers, PDA’s and mobile phones. In the event that you want to use the speakers with your non-Bluetooth media player it also sports a 3.5mm jack to connect directly.

While most Bluetooth headsets we’ve seen lately are concerned with being discrete and then coming up with elaborate technology to focus on only noise from your moth, Joby is coming out with a new model that helps state the obvious when you are on a call. The new Zivio Bluetooth headset is being showcased by Joby at this year’s CES in Las Vegas this week, and features a long antenna like “boom” with a microphone at the end.

The headset is still relatively small at 13 grams and a length of 53.5mm, but with the microphone extended it more than doubles the overall length bringing it up to 137mm. The headset will continue to work with the microphone boom retracted, but when you receive a call and extend the telephone operator-like mic, it will improve your voice clarity and help drown out other background noise, not to mention leave those around you in no doubt that you are taking a call.

Pioneer’s AVIC-F500BT GPS Navigator is designed to be compatible with any factory car audio set-up. The system lets you add in-car navigation and entertainment without modifying your existing car stereo.

The main feature is the VoiceBox Conversational Voice Search Platform, which is an advanced voice technology for controlling iPod and Bluetooth enabled devices. It has the ability to analyze and execute voice commands. For instance, if you say, “Let me hear the artist Led Zeppelin” or “play Led Zeppelin”.

Computer gear maker IOGEAR is debuting today some new Bluetooth devices for making the most out of using your mobile phone. The one grabbing our eye the most is the IOGEAR Wireless Stereo Headphones, priced at around $50.

The IOGEAR Wireless Stereo Headphones sport a behind the neck design and are designed to sync with your Bluetooth-enabled cell phone. You can use these headphones to listen to music wirelessly upwards of 30 feet away from the phone, letting you pause music when alerted that an incoming phone call is coming. Built-in controls also let you manage track changing and volume.

If you are looking for that extra-special Christmas present for yourself and feel that your ear needs to have more attention from passersby, might we suggest treating yourself to one of only 100 special Motopure H12 Bluetooth headsets being manufactured by Motorola and luxury custom mobile phone maker Alexander Amosu? This sheik fashion-meets-technology statement is made from 18 karat gold (in your choice of yellow or white) and incorporates over 180 cut diamonds amassing a total of 3.47 carats. You can even choose to mix up your diamonds in the standard brilliant clear white, pink or even black color choices just to express your individuality.

Naturally something like this doesn’t come cheap. Before you jet over to Selfridges or Harvey Nicholls in London to place your order you should know that the base model, the bottom of the line, the cheapest one they’ve got will cost you $8,175 while the tricked out big blinged one that will transform your earlobe into a member of 50 Cent’s entourage runs $12,775 plus tax. All we have to say is that for that kind of price tag you not only better remember where you set your headset down but we suggest that you alarm it as well.
