Mobile with UV Protection

July 25th, 2005 by Eric

We want to push the envelope with the wearable mobile device, Motorola finally did it. Teaming up with Oakley, they have launched the RAZRWire sunglasses/bluetooth headset combo. Available through Cingular Wireless in August, 2005, this should definitely turn some heads, although perhaps in awkwardness instead of a double-take.

A couple of negatives regarding this product. 1. Unless you’re the Blues Brothers, you cannot use this inside. 2. If you sunglasses break, you cannot use the bluetooth piece separately; it won’t stay in your ear. 3. If you lose your sunglasses, you probably loose the headset too. 4. It’s still bluetooth, so I’m sure bluejacking will occur at some point. While this is not the last of bluetooth headsets paired with other fashion accessories, it’s certainly a step in the right direction of fulfilling those wanting to be on the fashion edge of technology.
