Rear View Mirror Wireless Speakerphone
What it is: A Bluetooth®-enabled rear view mirror that acts as a speakerphone for any Bluetooth® compatible cell phone.
Why we love it: Several states already require hands-free devices if you want to use your cell phone while driving. This clever gadget is not only hands-free but is a useful tool for road warriors who travel by car for business. You can wirelessly receive and make calls through either a removable in-ear headset that is built into the mirror or use the mirror as a speakerphone. Calls are automatically routed to the in-ear headset when it is removed from the mirror, and return to the speakerphone when the headset is placed back into its cradle. The mirror clamps over your car's existing rearview mirror, the headset uses full-duplex noise- and echo-cancellation for clear audio, and the built-in loudspeaker is able to produce powerful sound up to 120db. The rechargeable battery provides three hours of talk time and one week of standby per charge. Includes a car charger, hands-free voice dialer, call status LEDs, and a built-in memory chip to record voice memos up to 60 seconds long.
Who we'd give it to: Commuters and others who conduct business from the road.
Where to get it: From Hammacher.com for a hands-free $139.95.
