Look ma, no wires

Yes, I was at Tangs today. I picked up a Sony Ericsson Bluetooth headset for my Nokia 6600 phone. I was about to get the only available Nokia headset, but realised it is not entirely wireless - you still have to clip one part of it onto your shirt, and attach the other half to your ear. I might as well stick to my wired hands-free kit! [Later I learnt there is a wire-free Nokia earpiece but I don't think it's available in Singapore yet.]

So I settled for the newer, smaller and somewhat more expensive HBH-65 (read review). After charging it for several hours, I successfully paired it with my mobile phone (which incidentally has already been paired with my new laptop). Loud and clear. And it is quite a neat little device, much shorter than its predecessor. I can listen to my video clips as well as phone calls and it sounds as sharp as it does, directly from my handset.

Oh, happy day...
