With all the legal question marks about using your phone while driving, it’s amazing that not everybody has a Bluetooth Car Kit installed in their vehicle. Of course, it may have something to do with cost and a fear of technology. The Motorola T325 looks like it counters both those problems by being cheap and simple. More »
With the combination of road laws that make talking on your mobile illegal while driving, plus the fact that most cars don’t have a truly intuitive way of getting your music from your iPod to your car stereo, the Parrot Mki9200 looks like a pretty good device.

Bluetooth carkits aren’t exactly what we’d call exciting. They all do the same thing – connect to your phone via Bluetooth and let you make and receive handsfree calls. Some of them even let you make calls using your voice.
The Sudio Vogue’s claim to fame is that it’s Australia’s first “coloured” Bluetooth handsfree speakerphone.It comes in a range of colours, including metallic blue, pink, black and white. You get 10 hours worth of talk time and 480 hours standby on a single charge, plus regular call features like one touch answer, call waiting, last number redial mute and call reject.
Like I said: Exciting.
Still, even though it’s not the most riveting product, it’s priced well at just $89. And sometimes the cheap and useful products that come in a range of colours are the best ones. Sometimes.
