Windows Phone Thoughts: What-Were-They-Thinking Post of the Day: The Bluetooth Finger Phone

"The Finger Phone is... cutting edge technology. It is a small bluetooth headset that you can wear like a ring. It remains connected to your cell phone through bluetooth, hence the maximum range is of course 10 metres. Its benefit over a normal bluetooth handsfree device is that this little gadget can be used in a huge crowd to hold a conversation without having any trouble listening to the person at the opposite end. This is possible due to the bone conduction technology that the ring phone uses. "



Here is the epitome of Bluetooth and Bone Conduction Technology. You can now talk and listen on your mobile phone while looking like you are picking your ear and talking to youself at the same time!! Actually, the value proposition behind this device is that it operates far more effectively in noisy areas where a typical handset would pick up a lot of background noise. It's also very light at 30 grams and employs some sort of 'Ubi Button' technology that allows you to control handset functions using various finger movements.
