LATEST GADGETS: Bluetooth headset

Plantronics Discovery 925
Price:
$199
Features:
Talk time: Up to 300 minutes
Wireless range: Up to 10 metres
Standby time: Up to 175 hours (with multipoint off); up to 100 (with multipoint on)
Weight: 8g
Pros:
Design, simple operation, comfortable, excellent voice quality, carrying pouch doubles as a charger
Cons:
Volume could have been louder in some instances
The final word:
The Discovery 925 is one of the best looking and best performing Bluetooth headsets to hit the market; the carrying pouch that doubles as a charger is a nice touch.
AS worn by the likes of Brooke Shields and Eva Longoria Parker, Plantronics' latest Bluetooth headset features unique VFrame design and comes packaged with a rechargeable case and AC and USB chargers.
This latest Bluetooth headset isn't just for the ladies though, as its refreshing black and chrome design suits men just fine.
As much a fashion accessory as a convenient hands-free device, the Discovery 925's design definitely captures the eye. The thin, plastic design is striking; the gloss black and chrome colour scheme certainly gives this headset a touch of class. Plantronics claims the design isn't just about looks though, as the VFrame is structured to follow the contours of the face and draw the microphone closer to your mouth.
In addition to a stylish design, the Discovery 925's compact build also means it's comfortable to wear. Particularly interesting is what Plantronics has dubbed “self-stabilising” ear tips – these clear rubber ear tips come in three different sizes and are comfortable to wear for long periods despite their unconventional design.

BLACKBERRY BOLD 9000


BlackBerry Bold 9000
RIM BlackBerry Bold 9000 is equipped with a 624MHz Intel PXA270 processor, whereas previous BlackBerrys had 312MHz processors, so technically, you should enjoy smoother and faster performance.
During our briefing, there were a few hiccups in performance, but we’re going to keep our fingers crossed and chalk it up to the fact that it wasn’t a final unit. There’s also 128MB of flash memory and 1GB of onboard memory, which is all supplemented by the microSD/SDHC expansion slot (supports up to 16GB cards).
