The new family with Bluetooth as last name (OMIZ Bluetooth headset, SE K850i, SE Z750i, DELL Studio 1535)
Can't deny, this marvellous wave that carries signal only as low as FM radio wave can really keep me going. Paring all the four gadgets allows:
- OMIZ as wireless headphone. Pairing the bluetooth headset to my laptop allows me to listen to songs, watch movies and basically listen to all the sounds that my laptop would produce normally via its speaker through my OMIZ Bluetooth Headset. This means an end to the conventional wired ear phone or headphone. Also, this allows me to control my music selection with the Play, stop, foward, rewind, vol+, vol- clicks on my headset. Forget about clicking your mouse or the panels on laptop. I can do it from the comfort of my arm chair.
- OMIZ as wireless headset. Pairing the headset with my laptop also allows the headset to be used during skype calling, msn or yahoo messenger video call. Just when you need some privacy talking to anyone, this again replaces the conventional headphones or mic. p/s: the headset comes with a mic as well.
- OMIZ as wireless headset + headphone (II). Paring the headset to both my cellphones allows me to make calls and listen to music from my phone in just a fraction of time. Just turn on the bluetooth device on both side, and off you go (it's pretty simple as I have set to turn them on in just a click on my phone). The buttons available on the headset allows me to call, redial, end call, increase/decrease my volume as well as the music functions stated earlier.
- Sending files wirelessly between cellphones and laptop. Yes, whether it's laptop to phone or vice-versa, files can be sent without hassles of wire and it's fast (thanx to the Bluetooth v2.0 that I have on all my devices). For instance, you're heading somewhere and you wanna listen to a song from your laptop (which you would not want to bring your laptop all around), just a few clicks will do the trick, have it on your mobile, and you're on the go! Almost any files can be transferred. This includes synchronizing contacts and calendar wirelessly between device (if you get what I mean, through the PC suite available).
- Connecting my cellphones. Yes, similarly to the connection between laptop and cellphone, I can synchronize contacts between my phones, share pictures, musics and even videos. Sadly, the calendar events is not possible yet (but you can do a slightly little longer way-synch with laptop then cellphone). And it's pretty useful, because you won't wanna retype each of your contacts every time you add them on both phones.
- Cellphones as HID mouse, presenter, music control. I'm not quite sure about other brands, but as of now, most SE phones comes with the "remote control" function available on the "entertainment" tab. This allows me to control my music (volumes, tracks and even fast forward or rewind) across rooms. Yes, as long as the connection is established, you can switch tracks or tune down your volume. Not forgetting its function as a mouse, a wireless one. Although it may not be possible to slide your mouse for control just like a real one does, the 5 way key arrows somehow allows you to do some basic changes on the screen from far (it comes with a right click and switch windows button too!) Just imagine you don't actually need to walk all the way just to click once on the screen. This of course means, during presentations, you can have the phone as remote control and advances the slides wirelessly instead of going two and flo to your laptop. Too bad, the phone doesn't come with a laser pointer.
- Cellphone controlling a presenter or projector. Say if your projector is bluetooth enabled, you can actually benefit from the presenter remote feature available on both the SE phones I have. Good one you have there as you won't wanna walk all the way from back of the lecture hall to front just to blind the screen for a moment (the question is what on earth are you doing behind the lecture hall when you should be presenting)
Well, generally, these are the features that I benefit from Bluetooth on my devices as of now. It really made my life easier a lot. I have looked a bit through the side effects of bluetooth, but as of now, there's still hardly a direct link between bluetooth waves with cancer or something. It's mere radio wave as claimed (although claimed to be radio wave, you still need a wired handsfree to keep your radio going in SE handsets). In a way, I just think it benefits lazy people like me...haha
It's a piece of sharing!
