Bluetooth?

[Cazza0104]

I'm aware that I have cut down on phone calls to friends because I simply can't spare the time! Would bluetooth be the answer? - I can then just get on with feeding/housework/web surfing while catching up with friends or hanging on the line to insurance companies!

DO any of you use it?

You mean a blue tooth hands free set? This would let you talk on your phone while doing other things?

Blue tooth itself is just a wireless way of connecting two gadgets to each other. So you get phone headsets, headphones, computer mice and so on.

Yes - I've heard that you can just put the device in your ear (Nokia do a small discreet one) and it picks up your mobile calls?

It doesn't quite pick up your mobile phone call. What it does is link to your mobile phone without any wires. The range of that linking is pretty limited, it will work if the phone is on you or pretty close by but will cut out if you move too far away from it.

So you keep your phone in a pocket and have this earpiece in and then you can talk and move around.
