I always forget to bring my Bluetooth headset inside from my car and charge it. That means each time I want to use it the thing is usually dead. i.Tech has announced a new Bluetooth headset that will help me stay powered up for hands free use called the SolarVoice 908.

The device has solar panels on the back to help charge the battery and features sound reduction technology to eliminate background noise. The headset also uses a design that allows air to flow to the ear canal so your ears don’t feel plugged up when you wear the headset.

The IQUA smart badge Bluetooth headset is pretty unique and pretty neat too. Corporations will probably love this as it uses a corporate ID along with a Bluetooth headset. The device offers talk time of up to 40 hours and standby time of 600 hours.

The IQUA will also give you vibration alert if you want to keep things on the quiet and can handle VoIP calls and 3-way conference calls. You’ll know if the Bluetooth connection is active thanks to some multi-colored LEDs which also indicate current call status and low battery.

Turtle Beach has introduced a new gaming headset for the Xbox 360. The third-generation Ear Force X41 features digital RF wireless CD-quality sound, 3-D positional audio and an advanced chat booster. This good looking headset is also compatible with other gaming consoles and can even be used as a home-theater accessory. The adjustable boom microphone is removable, keeping it out of the way when you’re not using XBOX LIVE chat.

This headset also features Dolby Pro Logic IIx and digital 2.4 GHz RF wireless technology for low-latency, uncompressed, CD-quality sound without background hiss and other interference.

Mogo makes some interesting peripherals for notebook computers like a mouse that stores and charges inside the express card slot of the notebook. The company has announced a new product today called the Mogo Talk that is designed for Voip communications with notebook computers.

The device is designed to be the most comfortable Bluetooth headset on the market with a rubber ear tip that conforms to the ear and eliminates the need for an ear loop to keep the headset in place. The device stores and charges inside the laptop express card slot.

Nokia just announced the brand new Bluetooth Stereo Headset BH-905, which they are hailing as “the best headset ever made”. I don’t know about that, but the BH-905 allows users to either make calls or listen to music, “with virtually any compatible phone or music device.”

It also features active noise cancellation technology from Wolfson Microelectronics (along with a switch for turning it on/off), 10 microphones (8 for canceling noise and 2 for capturing speech), a dedicated multifunction key for call management, and music/volume controls.

It’s been nearly a year since we last saw a Bluetooth headset from Aliph. But now it’s back with the Jawbone Prime. The Jawbone Prime isn’t much different than its predecessor. On the outside, they’ve improved the look with something more dramatic. Inside there’s the addition of Bluetooth 2.1+ EDR (multipoint connections, easy pairing), plus some algorithm tweaks of NoiseAssassin 2.0 to improve noise reduction.

The Prime will be replacing existing Jawbones for $130, and comes in Blah Blah Black, Coffee Talk and Going Platinum, while an “EARCANDY” edition is available in Frankly SCARLET, ‘YELLO!, Drop Me A LIME and LILAC You Mean It.

Jabra has something new for the wireless music crowd with the announcement of its stereo Bluetooth HALO headphones. They have absolutely nothing to do with Master Chief. It will give you six hours of playback on a single charge, AVRCP support, Jabra’s Noise Blackout circuitry for improved quality when using it for calls, and micro-USB charging.

The HALO folds up for easy storage, which will also power it on and off. You may also want to check out the SP200 speakerphone, which will give you 10 hours of talk time, 23 days of standby, and active noise reduction. The HALO will arrive in May for $129.99, while the SP200 hits in April for $59.99.

Nokia’s Music Almighty headset design competition attracted 6,000 entrants, and Nokia is showing off the five winning designs, which have been manufactured as fully-functional one of a kind headsets. The rules were that all of the headsets had to be inspired by a song.

So naturally that inspired a wide range of designs, like the Daft Punk “Robot Rock” set above, which we like the best. It was inspired by Daft Punk’s “Robot Rock” and was designed by G. Smith. Pretty clever competition.

What you are looking at in the pic above is a virtual reality helmet that recreates sights, smells, sounds and even tastes from far-flung destinations. Created by British scientists, the device will allow users a life-like experience of places such as Kenya’s Masai Mara while never leaving home. You could greet friends and family on the other side of the world as though they were present in the same room. Previously, scientists have only had success with virtual reality technology recreating sound and vision. This helmet named the Virtual Cocoon could change all that.

The prototype helmet connects wirelessly to a computer which feeds information about a virtual world or another part of the real world. It features a high definition high dynamic screen that produces pictures ten times darker, or 30 times brighter than the conventional television. A tube is connected to a box of chemicals which releases smells under the wearer’s nose, while a similar device can spray flavors directly into the mouth and provide a texture of sensation.

Creative’s latest headset is designed for gaming competitions. The Creative Tournament Gaming Headset HS-1100 is the first USB headset to be powered by Sound Blaster X-Fi with Silencer technology. Creative’s Silencer is a breakthrough in voice technology that allows the user’s voice to be clearly heard by other gamers, because Silencer eliminates ambient background noise to provide improved voice quality. So feel free to crank up your tunes in the background, because Silencer will block out the noise. Also, no one on the other end will hear your mother yelling at your 30-something ass and telling you to get a job.

It features built-in dual microphones and advanced time-based algorithms. The Creative Tournament Gaming Headset HS-1100 will be available in Singapore from April 2009 at the suggested retail price of about $160 US.

The G35 Headset features 7.1 surround sound with built in Dolby technology that is designed to output amazingly detailed gaming sounds. It also feature 6 built in voice changing options, so you can have some fun pretending that you’re Darth Vader while gaming.

Some of the specs: 7.1 surround sound powered by Dolby technology delivers a detailed soundfield. Dolby Pro Logic II is used with Dolby Headphone technology to create expanded stereo sound for files recorded in traditional formats. Three G-keys on headset will give you one-touch command for voice morphing or music controls and you get six voice-morphing options. On-ear audio controls deliver quick access for volume, mic mute and surround sound adjustments. Adjustable, noise-canceling microphone focuses on your voice and not background noise. Full-speed, all-digital USB connection for clean, clear audio. Three swappable headband pads let you choose the one that best fits your head: thin, thick and contoured designs. Compatible with popular VoIP gaming platforms like Ventrilo, TeamSpeak and Xfire.

Here’s an odd one from Nikon, but it’s no camera. The Media Port UP300 and UP300x video headset aims to be a wearable computer. The device basically looks like a pair of headphones with a small display, but has some nice specs. It features up to 8GB of flash memory for videos, music and file storage, Wi-Fi, and even, get this, a full internet browser.

The 300x model, even sports motion control. Browsing may be a challenge, who knows. You can also use the Wi-Fi connection to download audio and video content directly. The 300x will cost you $587. Looks like we are now on our way to becoming the Borg. If the next one requires that you dock yourself in a borg ship, I’m heading for the hills.

You know Scott Summers, the dude from the X-Men? Yeah, this is his grandmother. Apparently, they share the same mutant gene, resulting in cyclops eyewear. Actually, this is the JORDY. (Joint Optical Reflective Display) A head-mounted magnifier from Enhanced Vision that let’s those with poor vision see objects at a distance. Great for race tracks and the like, making granny really stand out in her final years.

The thing has 4 viewing modes, full-color, black and white, high-contrast positive and negative. A 30x magnification, but you can get 50x with the optional desktop, auto-focus with digital zoom too. The name was clearly inspired by Geordi LaForge, the visor wearing Enterprise crew member. That being the case, you’d think they could have streamlined this thing a bit.

Maybe you like to watch TV soaps late into the night, or Teletubbies. And if your house is pretty small, you would have to lower the TV volume pretty low unless you want to get caught and laughed at by your wife. Try this Digital Wireless Headset from Pioneer.

The Pioneer SE-DRS3000C Digital Wireless Headset is a big looking 2.4GHz wireless headset that launches in Japan around the middle of May. This 720g Digital Wireless Headset supports bandwidth of 10Hz to 24kHz, with a 30m working radius, compatible with Dolby Digital, DTS-ES, Dolby NR.

This is an interesting concept phone called the Mooon+ and it isn’t just another iPhone wannabe. It has a nice clean design, with a large touchscreen, sleek design, and a digital camera. It’s pretty sexy, but it’s not all about looks. It has some fascinating features. For instance, the mouth piece detaches and turns into a bluetooth headset. It will also charge itself via the headset.

Designed by Sunman Kwon, it pretty much solves the problem of cellphone owners who lose their headsets, by simply incorporating the accessory into the phone’s mouth piece.
