To ensure that the Power is really Never End, the headset comes with a USB charging cable so you can also recharge it via your computer. The headset is also equipped with noise reduction technology, and it can be paired to 2 devices at a time. Wear one on each ear and you can talk to 4 people at a time! Yeah I don’t think it works that way.

The guy in the pic is obviously not a douchebag; he didn’t pop his collar. As long as you don’t do that or any of these things, you can buy a solar powered Bluetooth headset at Brando’s online shop for $67 (USD).

Of course, you may need runway-ready styling to pull off that level of excellence, but for the rest of us, the Jawbone headsets look pretty good on their own.

It’s not all about aesthetics, though, and that’s good news, considering these babies retail for $130 apiece. Jawbone’s new brightly colored headsets promise 5x better call clarity in noisy environments. Now if only they could have managed something like slip-off covers so you weren’t stuck with only one color.

Andres from anything but iPod has a good explanation of the Drone’s functionality. Normally, Bluetooth adapters are a pain to work with because they need so many drivers to function. The Drone sidesteps all that hassle because it doesn’t act as a Bluetooth transmitter; instead it acts as a USB sound card.

I must note however, that the Drone you see above has been modified by Andres so that it can swivel 90 degrees to the side. Normally the Drone sticks out of the hub. So holla at him if you want to know how to do the hack. I just call Andres “Andres” because I don’t know how his last name is spelled.

Andres swears by the quality of the sound that the Drone delivers, although  Callpod’s estimate of the Drone’s 100m (328 ft) working range can’t really be achieved with all Bluetooth headsets/headphones; you’d have to buy Callpod’s own dragon headset.

You can get the Drone from Callpod’s site for $50. Of course you’d have to have a Bluetooth headset or headphone.

German jewelry designer Andi Monn took the opportunity to dress up the iPhone’s earpiece with these striking metal covers. Just slip the form-fitting metal sleeve over the body of your headset, and these instantly transform into a work of art on your ear.

A specially designed magnet holds the sleeve in place without affecting the electronics of the earpiece. Each one comes with a leather cord that you can wear around your neck, as well as a custom-embossed keyring.

Available in .925 Sterling silver or high-grade brushed steel, they retail for a whopping €159 (appx. $253 USD) a piece, making them more than twice as expensive than the headset itself. But if really, really want to show off your stuff, Monn can create them custom in gold, platinum, white gold, or other precious metals on request as long as you’ve got the dough.

So while I was tooling around over on Korea’s Funshop website, I happened upon this great Space Invaders cover for the compact headset.

While I’m not sure if the classic gaming icons are one of the standard 33 covers which are included with the $50 Jabra BT3010 headset, you can certainly make your own if you’d like. As a matter if fact, Jabra provides an online cover design tool which lets you upload and share your own custom designs.

So if you’re looking for a way to express your individuality even though you’re walking around looking like the Borg, look no further.

You won’t be fooling around with these puppies around your ears. For starters, the X3s have some really well-padded ear cups so you’ll be able to play for hours on end without the headache that the standard 360 headphones can cause.

In addition, the $100 headset lets you enjoy both voice chat and game audio by using an IR transmitter that plugs into the Xbox 360’s audio outputs. Onboard audio processing circuitry can expand both the bass and the depth of stereo imaging for a truly immersive experience.  There are a variety of other nifty features too, like microphone monitoring so you can hear your own voice like you do on a telephone, as well as the ability to automatically adjust chat volume so you’re not drowned out when your game gets louder.

Turtle Beach expects to start shipping the Ear Force X3 headsets in early September.

The $235 Jabra BT8030 headset not only works as a wireless Bluetooth headset for your media player or mobile phone, it can quicly transform into a pair of speakers for your computer or as a speakerphone. As a headset, you’ll be able to chat away for about 32 hours on a single charge, and in speaker mode, you’re looking at about 26 hours, depending on volume level. You can also pair multiple devices at the same time, so if your MP3 player and mobile phone are separate, that’s fine.

Seems like a pretty cool idea to me. I just hope that Jabra has provided some safeguards to prevent you from blowing your eardrums out while their being worn as headphones.

Some interesting revelations are shown in the video. The headset comes with small and medium “ear wraps,” taking into account the fact that everyone’s ears are different (what happened to “large”?). Each headset can be bound to one of the four wireless controller channels, and little green “1-4″ LED indicators to show the current channel. Microsoft also claims that the headset actually improves audio quality.

The headset is priced at $59.99 and should hit stores this week.
