Sound ID 200, Sound ID 300 Bluetooth headsetsSound ID has unveiled two new Bluetooth headsets at this year’s CTIA Wireless in Las Vegas.

First comes the Sound ID 200 model, which was “ergonomically designed for all-day wearing comfort.” Among the features of the headset are RealComfort EarLoops, automatic volume control, NoiseNavigation technology that works in conjunction with dual microphones, and a micro USB charging. The Sound ID 200 measures 53.5×15.5×7.5 mm (2.1×0.6×0.3 inches) and has a weight of less than 8 grams (0.28 ounces). Its battery powers up the device for up to 6 hours of talk, or 220 hours (9 days) of standby time. The headset will be available from various retailers in mid-April, when interested users will be able to grab it for $99.99.

The other device announced is the Sound ID 300, which will be available through AT&T starting from April 15, 2009. From what we can tell, this headset builds on top of the Sound ID 200 model, adding PersonalSound (selection of three listening modes) and Secure Pairing to the mix. Size wise, it’s pretty much identical to the previous model, but thanks to the two features mentioned above, it’s bit more expensive — the Sound ID 300 will have a MSRP of $119.99, although AT&T will sell it for $99.99…
