Virtual Keyboard for your Mobile Device

September 15th, 2007

Virtual laser keyboard for mobile cell phoneCheck out this great keyboard accessory!

�Best of all its now Bluetooth capable. It actually sprays out a laser keyboard. It reads the light breaks as you type. Its much easier to use than some of the older fold out keyboards and you don’t have to worry about comfort.

�Ease:� 9

Comfort: 9 Price: 4It’s a little pricy at around $179-$199

Drawbacks are few. Just need a flat surface. It is compatible with Windows Mobile, Blackberry, and Palm OS and even a few Smart cell phones.

Jawbone connected to my Cell Phone

April 11th, 2007

Folks often ask me what I use, particularly when it comes to Bluetooth headset. I have been using the  Jawbone as of late. I drive a lot and have a lot of cock pit noise. Previously, I had complaints while I am in my car. They ask “are you in a wind tunnel?”

Bluetooth JawboneNow with the Jawbone and its noise shield, all the background noise is eliminated! I can have music, or other noise in the background and the person I am talking to never even hears it.

It will not take direct wind though. If you are outside and its gusty, it will still sound like you are in a tornado. Still pretty amazing though.

Check out the demo video.

Not crazy about the comfort though. They do give you various ear loops and ear buds. I am just not an “ear plug” guy. Granted I hear a whole lot better. I just may have small ear canals.earpieces for Jawbone
Here is what I think from a scale of 1-1-(10 being the highest) Sound quality: 9.5
I hear well and the person on other end hears great! Outside wind holding it back from a 10

Comfort: 6
After a couple hours I have to take it out of my ear. With the Motorola HS700, I could wear it all day.

Battery life: 8
They say about 6 hours talk time and 120 standby. I get about 6 hours talk. Who really actually counts standby?

Design: 7
Design is OK. Its rather light weight. Some people say its neat looking and some say it looks to big. Women I found in particular do not like the design.

Durability: 5
I have broken several pieces off it. I can always snap it back, but it always feel looser than before.

What I would change:
I wish they would use a mini USB charging port. They have a 4 prong connection which I don’t like at all. It is often difficult to unplug. I would change the rubber earpiece to something softer or an external ear speaker.
Bottom line: I have to have it because I am in my car so much. If I didn’t have the Jawbone, no one would want to speak to me while in my car with all the road noise.
