Across the world and back.

After a month long hiatus, I can say I'm back.  Had a two-week mid-October vacation in the Philippines to relax and unwind.  During my vacation, I bought a bluetooth device that I've been constantly using day in and out.  Finally, I've felt more liberated by going wireless all-the-way (sounds kinda dirty, but it's not).  In case you're curious on what it is, it's the Hisense HB440H bluetooth headset.  This headset supports A2DP, AVRCP, and Hands-free for your phone.  Being tangled up during the morning commute is no longer the case.  Looks good, sounds decent.  Since then, it's been paired with my BlackBerry Curve, MacBook and JARVIS.  Think of it as an ordinary looking headphone that also controls your devices when permitted (making you less of a bluetool than ever before).  The HB440H is known as the Subjekt Pulse here in North America (if you're interested).  If you're in the Vancouver area (Canada), there are several units available at Simply Computing.  (FULL DISCLOSURE: I work there).

Onto the other big news that happened during the past week, Apple just released iOS 4.2.1 for all current iOS devices.  This update brings the iPad up to par with both the iPhone and iPod touch.  So far, enjoyed playing around with the new features and will write about what it means for technology moving forward.  Hint: This brings the desktop computer to the truck era.
