Plantronics released a terrific Bluetooth headset a while ago with the Voyager Pro, and they have just released the Voyager Pro UC (”unified communications”) headset.

This headset adds a plug-and-play Bluetooth USB adapter designed for Skype as well as other applications like Avaya, Cisco, IBM, Microsoft, even Google Talk. Sadly, the Bluetooth dongle is incompatible with the first version of the Voyager Pro.

The Voyager Pro UC should be available later this month for a price of about $199.95.

There has been much hype about the Jabra Stone. Part of it is its unique design as the headset fits in the charger to make a seemingly seamless smooth stone. It also has a touch sensitive shell for its controls rather than the traditional buttons.

It has a talk time of 2 hours, plus a dock that is good for three extra charges. The standby time is reportedly 12 days. The Jabra Stone will hit AT&T stores on November 8th, with a price of $130.

You’ll probably recognize TAG Heuer as the makers of some popular (and expensive) luxury watches. Well, the Swiss company has recently strayed from their roots introducing the above pictured Bluetooth headset.

As you can see, the actual headset will ship with a USB docking station that bears resemblance to a fat USB thumb drive. Oh yeah, you can save 4GB of data on that fatty while charging your headset, now that’s innovation! Additionally, the headset itself will allow for 4 hours of talktime on a single charge.

There’s no word on pricing or availability but considering the brand, don’t expect this to be cheap.

Bluetooth headsets are abundant at the CES and while most people are looking for the traditional and sophisticated design, the LG HBM-530 seems to be targeting the females instead.

Shaped and designed like a Swarovski crystal-clad, this headset can pass for a piece of jewelry. It can also be a great fit for women who wear various accessories and jewelries. If ladies should get this device, people may not even notice a Bluetooth headset clinging around their wardrobe.

It features an e-Clip ergonomic earbud and a carrying cradle, but really, the only reason to get this is because it looks like a piece of costume jewelry.

When you look at bluetooth headsets, it would be Sony Ericsson that seems to be the only mobile phone that has such a device. But now, Samsung has unveiled its own version and it even won the Design and Innovation Award at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.

While other mobile phone manufacturers have been introducing their share of headsets, this Samsung WEP850 Bluetooth headset is quite a catch with its wonderful design.

The earloop just doesn’t look the same as other headsets. The Crystal earhook really sticks out, especially since it has that extra piece on the hook. The pearl coated finish also places the Samsung WEP850 a step ahead of the competition.

The oddly named LG Decoy has made appearance again, this time at the Special Interest Group (SIG) Holiday Gift Guide 2008 Event being held at the Tavern on the Green in New York City to show off its concealment capabilities involving a Bluetooth headset. Other than the removable Bluetooth earpiece, this dual-band CDMA slider packs a 240×320px QVGA display, a passable 2.0 megapixel camera, video/mp3 player, and a microSD slot to care of your storage needs. Not much in there, but at $179 on a two-year plan, some might call it a steal. Look for the VX8610 on Verizon this 16th.

Still another addition to the roster of new Motorola products is the Motorola S605 Bluetooth stereo clip headset. The small clip-on style makes it seem negligible, its size coupled with the fact that it uses earbuds which promise to fit your ears perfectly adds to its appeal.

There is no price for these as of yet, although Motorola proclaims it will be affordable. Release will again be on second quarter of 2008.

If you’ve been enamored by the MOTOROKR S9 headset, then all the more so with its successor, the Motorola S9-HD. It has all the features its predecessor did, except it, of course, features enhancements. It’s wireless with a behind-the-head design for maximum fit. The earbuds block out ambient noise, and with the SRS WOW HD™ technology in the works coupled with 3D surround sound, it looks to be quite promising. The Motorola S9-HD is compatible bluetooth-enabled mobile phones and MP3 players. If you’re an iPod user, however, you’d have to get Motorola D650 Bluetooth adaptor for synchronization.
