Well not really wireless, but you don’t have to have the clutter of all of your HD components right next to your tv if you don’t want. The AeroBeam Wireless HD Video Kit from Zyxel($218.99) is composed of a 4 HDMI input transmitter and a single HDMI output receiver. It makes for a clean install without the time, effort and expense of going through walls or hiring professionals.
I first saw the GoJo on a Saturday morning infomercial. It’s a a plastic headband, the type you expect to see a phone operator wear, that uses a suction cup to hold your phone in place to your ear. I guess I can see the appeal, there are no batteri and at first glance i was like ehh I could probably do without that. About a week later i received a press release about it and figured I’d give it a try.
On the plus side, the suction cup does hold you phone in place and it does work with phones of varying size.
On the down side, i found it kind of uncomfortable and it definitely did not go on my head as easily as in the video above. Those two issues made it a challenge when i need to answer an incoming call while already on the phone…or looking at the phone for any reason.
Bottom line, it didn’t do it for me, not even for the $10 price tag.

Launched in August 2011, Sol Republic is accessibly priced high quality line of headphones. They currently come in 4 varieties. The Tracks($99.99) and Tracks HD($129.99) over the ear type; and the Amps($59.99) and Amps HD($99.99) in-ear versions.
Less than a year ago, 50 Cent announced his new line of headphones called Sleek by 50. Before long, that deal feel apart and it was back to the drawing board. Well now he’s back with the new Sync by 50. Like the previous, these are also wireless. But what makes these special is the fact that 4 sets of headphones can be synced to the same audio source. Is that cool or what?

There are a few hands free bluetooth speakerphones available on the market right now. While they all perform that basic function, some do it well, and others not so much. I was able to get my hands on Freeway($129.99) from Jabra, and i gotta say, i’m impressed. It paired with my phone in about 10 seconds out of the box. Before making or taking any calls on it, i decided to check out the sound quality by streaming some mp3′s to it from my phone. (more…)
