While the world may seem a rather gloomy place at the moment, technology marches on.  Although we may not have the same cash to spend on all of those delicious little gadgets out there, there are occasions when something so tasty arrives on the scene it is permissable to live on canned ravioli for a week in order to afford it.

I hate to break it to you, but the Jabra JX10 bluetooth headset (with hub) is one of those things for which it’s worth sacrificing your digestive health. 

Using a phone, whether it’s a corded home phone or your mobile, will never again be the same with this baby.  Gone are the days of Jabra bulkiness; instead say hello to a rather sexy little number designed by Danish designer Jacob Jensen, famous for designing the magnificently stylish Bang & Olufsen audio range.  And while this honey of a bluetooth headset has the looks, it offers much more than just a pretty exterior…as we’ll soon discover.

Phone headsets aren’t generally known for their good looks.  Sound quality - yes.  Fancy features - sometimes.  Embarrassment factor - absolutely.  But every now and again, an exception (or two) can come along and blow your mind with a sensory grenade.  That’s exactly what Plantronics have done with their latest top offerings from the Encore Pro range.  Prepare to be amazed at the use of the words and phrases such as “sleek”, “comfortable” and “incredibly adjustable” in conjunction with the following descriptions of these top of the class phone headsets!

Creeping through the ruins of some devastated French village, your heart thunders at an almost unsustainable pace as you continue to edge forward.  Your one solace is that you’ve got your trusty comrades with you, ready to spring into further action at your slightest command.  Suddenly, an explosion breaks the silence.  The enemy comes pouring out of doorways and hurdling over walls like a seething mass of ants.  But you and your hardened squadron are ready for them.  You take a deep breath and open your mouth to order them into battle…and then the dog starts barking.  Your commands are drowned in a cacophony of canine noise, and you and your beloved squandron are slaughtered in cold blood.

If you recognise this scenario, you are most certainly a team gamer - a team gamer lacking a decent gaming headset.  So why continue to commit virtual suicide on a nightly basis?  Feast your eyes on some of the latest top Gamecom headsets from Plantronics, one of the best headset manufacturers out there.  The models we’re taking a look at are the Gamecom 367, 377 and 777, and whatever your budget there’s bound to be one to please your bank manager.

It’s a technological world.  Online gaming is no longer the domain of spotty, anti-social teenagers and middle-aged men with high IQs and even higher waist sizes.  Normal folk are at it as well, battering buttons and vanquishing pixelated foes whilst releasing accumulated hostility aimed at their boss on some faceless online opponent.  Increasing numbers of non-nerds are also utilising the power of computers to undertake regular tasks; in particular, the emergence of internet telephony - VOIP or Voice Over Internet Protocol to the uninitiated – has enabled the average PC user to save a small fortune by providing the means to make ‘phone calls over the internet rather than by the conventional BT or cable telephone route.  In addition, voice recognition technology has allowed those averse to typing to dictate their work, an advance that has been embraced by lazy executives the world over.

So if you’re one of this new breed, an ordinary person who is interested in making technology work and play for them, you’ll need the best equipment to make sure that your voice is heard.  And there’s no easier way to vocalise your intentions than with the top-notch Sennheiser PC 131 computer headset.  Interested?  Read on!

Talking to yourself is no longer a sure sign of insanity. In fact, on busy city streets all over the globe it is commonplace to see men in suits yapping away to no one in particular. Or teenagers walking side-by-side, talking — but not to each other. No, we are living in a new age — the Bluetooth Age.

Smaller and smaller these devices get with each new release — and with clearer sound and more hands-free features. One brand that long predates the invention of wireless Bluetooth technology, but is synonymous with superior sound performance is Sennheiser. Continue reading »

As ever, we’ve ploughed through the endless number of bluetooth headsets on market, from Jabra to Plantronics, from Sennheiser to Motorola, and witilled them down to our best bluetooth for 2008. Continue reading »




Sennheiser has outdone themselves with the PC 350, a dynamic gaming headset that screams action-packed right out of the box.  This unit borrows the design and some the functionality of the PXC 450 with a noise-cancelling feature that makes sure you stay on point in the heat of the battle.  Added is the microphone which makes things even more intense in multi-player games where one mistake could bring down the entire team.

Design

The PC 350’s design is awesome, solid and durable yet lightweight and very comfortable.  The ear cups are just the right size, cushioned over a black foam to ensure hours of painless gameplay.  This truly comes in handy when slamming your way to victory online with some TNA Impact.

Quickly following the invention of cordless headsets for the mobile phone came the same technology in office phones. Plantronics’ CS60 fits the bill as a cordless headset with the ability to connect to an ordinary phone and provide wireless calls over a land line.  Instead of Bluetooth, the CS60 thrives off of DECT technology, a system used in most home-based cordless phones.  DECT hasn’t always been the easiest technology to work with so we were curious to see if the CS60 could do the trick.

How it Works

The CS60 comes with a base station that can be connected to your existing home or office phone and a headset which attaches to your ear.  The base station comes packed with a transmitter and the battery charger for your headset.  The CS60 integrates smoothly with a range of land line phones from standard analogue and digital to VoIP and other DECT systems.  Unlike other systems, it sits between your cabled handset and a land line phone, allowing you to choose the type of phone from a selector on the side.
