This last couple of weeks I’ve been on a bit of an upside down schedule. I’ve been doing a lot of work and staying up later than usual. I’m typing this at 12:49am on Thursday morning and as I am typing it, I have these little headphones on.
This is the Blueant bluetooth wireless headset. I am completely wireless. The little transmitter is plugged into the home stereo amplifier and I am able to go pretty much anywhere in the house and still hear the sound. In fact you can also plug in a microphone and use it with Skype if you want to. I can put on a dvd, the radio, cds, music, tv, whatever I like. Mostly I watch.. err.. listen to tv. Right now it is Law and Order.
What I’ve learnt is there is a lot more to the sound of most shows than you usually pick up just listening to it through speakers. You can hear so much more with the headset.
This way I don’t miss any of the show – I can go to the kitchen and make a snack (or cookies!) – grab a glass of water – go to the bathroom – if I need to run back to the computer to do something I can, plus the other half isn’t kept awake with my “noisy” shows. Yep, by that he means The View. Cos he doesn’t like all those women talking over each other.
I recommend everyone gets a bluetooth headset thingy. :)
Sounds a lot like the schedule I used to have when I was in giftware manufacture. Up till 1 or 2 am on order deadlines. The telly kept me company for many an hour. I’ve lisetened to more TV than actually watching it I reckon.
Love that Law & Order.
Cheers

They’re cheaper than I thought that they would be at about $50-70 depending on where you get them. Though I’m not sure what exactly I’d do with them myself cos I don’t watch much TV but it is far enough away that I usually have it quite loud when I’m listening to it, so I can see the usefulness of it…it’d be cool if I knew that my computer had bluetooth on it, but I’m not sure about that… ;)
Tis amazing what you can do with the wireless technology these days. :)

Fantastic. I can ignore the kids when they are fighting and don’t have to talk to my wife. :)
I want a pair. Will be able to listen to music and not disturb the household. Yeah!
Well, I truley believe that bluetooth headsets have changed the way of sound we have been listening to in past couple of years. Over these BT headsets you get so much clarity and one cannot doubt that it is not wired. I seriously recommend that everyone have a BT headset. It is more suited for a person who wants to work and listen to music at the same time while on move.
