Roadrunner Bluetooth Communicator attaches to the neck and picks up vibrations from the larynxIf you feel that talking to seemingly no-one in public with a Bluetooth headset in your ear isn’t bringing quite enough unnecessary attention to yourself you can try your hand, or your neck, at this RoadRunner Bluetooth Communicator.

The RoadRunner connects to your mobile phone much like a regular Bluetooth headset with the difference being that you wear this one around your neck instead of on your ear. The device picks up vibrations from your larynx when you talk and converts them into a voice. There’s also a small corded ear piece that connects up to your ear.

Seinnheiser SH 300 headsetAnyone that’s spent an entire day on the phone with their hands on a keyboard knows that a good headset is worth its weight in at least some type of precious metal to make your day easier. The Sennheiser SH 300 headset is not wireless, there’s no Bluetooth and it’s got a mono-speaker, but on the upside its cord will likely fit into the port that the current crappy headset you’re using at work is plugged into now.

The SH 300 works for right or left head mounting, doesn’t mess up your ‘do and has some noise cancellation technology to block out all the others in the cube around you, giving a much more peaceful conversation for you and the party on the other end. The microphone also gives excellent sound quality to help cut down on all the “whats” generated by poor headsets.
