RIM has really been working on their accessory line with recent devices. Scott let me know about the latest accessory RIM has put on ShopBlackBerry.com which is the BlackBerry HS-500 Bluetooth Headset. The headset looks pretty standard but adds in features like automatic volume control. I am not sure how this will compare with a Jawbone or Blueant but I will let you know when I give it a spin!
Features:
- Call control button – control calling features like, answer, end, mute and voice activated dialing with the press of a button
- Automatic volume control and noise cancelation – hear and be heard loud and clear in noisy environments
- Works with selected third-party GPS mapping applications – listen to turn-by-turn directions
The price is pretty hefty at $79.99 retail but it is still listed as coming soon on their product page. Anybody thinking of picking one up when it comes out?
