Jabra

Jabra just announced that their new HALO Wireless Bluetooth Stereo Headset is now available at Best Buy stores in North America. This new headset is compatible with Blackberry smartphones, as well as Apple's iPhone and iPod touch.

Weighing in at just 3 ounces, the Jabra HALO is a compact, over-the-head, foldable headset that is small enough to take wherever you go. The HALO offers wireless connectivity with a 30 foot operating range, as well as the ability to connect to 3.5 mm multimedia playing devices such as cell phones and laptops.

The Jabra HALO lets you connect two Bluetooth-enabled devices such as mobile phones, MP3 players, or laptops. It also includes an intuitive on/off functionality, a display that shows battery and connectivity status, a touch volume control, and to make sure you don't miss a call, the HALO fades out music when you receive an incoming call.
