Jabra BT8040 Bluetooth Headset with Multi-point Technology

BlueAnt’s recently released Z9 Bluetooth headset had almost everything we could ask for in a Bluetooth headset – almost. We’d much rather do without that ear-hook (does that mean it had more than we could ask for?). Regardless, wireless headsets these days are getting smaller – as they pack in more features. Enter the new Nokia (NYSE: NOK) BT8040 Bluetooth headset. The tiny 39×18x19mm, 10g, package sports a minimalistic 3-button setup – one for call answering/ending, and a set for volume adjustments – that packs in all the features you could want.
In addition to the voice-dialing, redialing, call waiting, and call holding features, this little headset rocks A2DP Bluetooth 2.0 with EDR, noise-reducing DSP, auto-volume control, and acoustic shock protection. But, the slickest feature has to be Multi-point – allowing simultaneous Bluetooth connections to two devices at the same time. Think you can manage two different phones plugged right into your ear? Then the Jabra BT8040 is for you.
With 6 hous of talk-time and 200 hours of stand-by time, you’re going to have plenty of time to listen to your favorite tunes whilst your mom goes on and on about her new drapes.

Just got this headset in the mail yesterday. I love the way I can walk around all day and listen to music. I didn’t like the ear bud that came with it. It wouldn’t fit right in my ear. kept wanting to fall out. I had an old wired jabra headset that had bigger and more secure ear buds that I put on this new one. Now it’s awesome.
