LG's Style-i hands-full headset

Looks like LG is no longer content just knocking Samsung, they've apparently moved on to Haier in the P7 "inspired" Style-i, their new 4.3-inch long Bluetooth handset / headset. How's it both? Well, it's not a phone itself, just a Bluetooth device meant to emulate the experience of using a phone when your real handset stays safely in your bag / purse / pocket / wherever. Yeah, we might think a non-hands-free headset wasn't such a good idea either, but you'd be surprised how many people we've heard ask for something like this. Though the "below $150" price tag (i.e. $149.99) could definitely be tweaked a little, this much we know.

Not a bad idea, esp if you have a bigger cellphone (read HTC-Universal), but where is the Send button?

this could be pretty sweet if it will work with skype and my powerbook

I guess this would make sense if you had a PDA-sized phone and wanted a phone-sized handset to use with it.

But why wouldn't you just use a PDA-sized PDA and a phone-sized phone?

At least it looks better than the Bluetooth receiver jammed into a crappy Nokia handset that some guy modded up earlier this year.
