Nothing beats using your mobile phone and talking at the right time. Rather than push some button that allows you to speak, wouldn’t it be nice if there would be some kind of headset that operates based on something like vibrations?

Well, thanks to Motorola, now there is one. The new device is the Motorola HX-1 Bluetooth Headset which can switch off the microphone and turns on an in-ear sensor from bone vibrations. The one of a kind feature is called the true bone conduction technology by Motorola.

The technology picks up from the familiar jawbone headsets technology which some other headsets may have had. Though no pricing has been announced for it yet, it is expected to initially hit the Asian market next month.

One thing about headsets these days is that they cater to a specific platform and niche. And while many people need to be informed on the limitations for some headsets that they carry, TCM Mobile takes all that away. TCM Mobile unveils a new dual band headset that can be used over GSM cellular networks when users are outside the TCM coverage and Cellular VoIP networks. The new dual band headsets from TCM Mobile will make its debut this July.

By default, dual band headsets are set to cater to GSM cellular networks by default. With these new dual band headsets from TCM Mobile it is the opposite. They use the Cellular VoIP networks by default. The same technology may soon be covering a wide area of network if negotiations push through. Just the same, TCM Mobile is deploying on a gradual basis to provide them the convenience of carrying just one device without any problems along the way.

“While our new handset is scheduled for release in two to three months, we can currently take any existing dual band handset available on the market and, together with its manufacturer, embed TCM’s revolutionary, patented software into it. This represents a significant opportunity for these manufacturers to grow sales of their own branded handsets in conjunction with the deployment of TCM’s Cellular VoIP network,” said a TCM Mobile senior executive.

Olympic sensation Michael Phelps is back in the groove of things and now gets another partner-endorser with H2O audio, the leader in waterproof headphones. H2O and Phelps agreed to a multi-year contract where the famed swimmer will be endorsing the waterproof headsets in promoting the incorporation of music in the training regimen of swimmers today.

Music has been known to help in the training process of any sport actually. However until now when the era of waterproof audio devices were discovered, nothing was made for the water sports category. With this new partnership, H2O stands to get a lot of attention particularly due to the following that Michael Phelps garnered for his outstanding performance at the last Olympics for Team USA.

“H2O Audio is extremely proud to welcome Michael Phelps to our team,” said Kristian Rauhala, founder and ceo, H2O Audio. “It’s an honor to have the opportunity to work with one of the finest athletes in the world, especially one who so perfectly aligns with H2O Audio’s mission to encourage everyone — from the elite athlete to the recreational participant– to pursue an active lifestyle and push their level of performance.”

A bill introduced by Colorado Senator Claire Levy (D-Boulder) and Representative Bob Bacon (D-Fort Collins) on Monday if passed into law will prohibit teens, school bus operators, cab drivers and any other motor vehicle carrier regulated by the Public Utilities Commission from using a wireless phone while in motion. All other drivers would be allowed to use a cell and drive at the same time so long as they did so through a hands-free device like Blue-Tooth or a speaker phone.

The bill would make driving while talking on a cell phone a ‘Class A’ violation punishable by a fine of as much as $100. Several recent studies have shown that drivers who talk on their cell phones while driving are more likely to get into accidents than those who put their full attention on the road. The bill is likely to gain broad support but may die in the house before ever coming to a vote. Either way, this could be a good time to invest in that headset you’ve been wanting.
