Is that a BlueSpoon in your ear?

Barry Shilmover sent me a link to this product today, and even with the jaded attitude I have towards Bluetooth, it made my heart go pitter-patter. Weighing in at less than 10 grams, and boasting a talk time of up to six hours (and 100 hours of stand-by time), this looks like it could become a killer accessory for mobile phones and Pocket PC Phone Edition devices - assuming the Pocket PCs have the Bluetooth profiles to support it. It uses hearing aid technology, which would explain the size and battery life. I wonder what the sound quality is like?
"BlueSpoon™ is a wireless headset weighting less than 10 gr. using the Bluetooth™ standard. The Bluetooth™ headset is designed to fit any right ear. The light and durable material has been designed for military standards and allows the user to wear the headset for very long periods of time."
