Plantronics prepared a pair of Bluetooth headsets for folks who *really* don’t like charging their gear all the time. The new M25 and M55 models come with the so called DeepSleep hibernation mode, which enables the handset to run for up to 5 months!
The DeepSleep technology activates when the headset is away from your phone for more than 90 minutes. When the phone and headset are back in range, you just tap the Call button to “wake” the headset up. It’s that easy.
Specs wise, these super-light accessories (with weight of just 8 grams) support Voice Alerts that whisper talk time, battery level, and more; A2DP, wideband and multipoint technologies; digital noise reduction; up to 11 hours of talk time and 16 hours of standby (in addition to 150 days in DeepSleep hibernation mode). Moreover, the M55 also includes one year of free access to Plantronics Vocalyst voice and text service and the ability to take or dismiss calls simply by saying “Answer” or “Ignore”.
Price wise, the Plantronics M25 costs $39.99, while the M55 could be yours for $49.99.

In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
