, Apr 16th 2008 Discuss [1]

This phone is amazing, at least from my point of view, music is my drug of choice so the 8GB of built in storage and the integrated FM transmitter are two features of this phone I love.

JayBird Bluetooth Stereo Headphones Reviewed

, Nov 21st 2007 Discuss [5]

So they are Bluetooth, they don’t have an ugly lanyard attached, and they are really simple to use. There is a small wire that connects behind the head, but that’s about it, all the hardware sits on your ears.
