Plantronics Voyager 510-USB

Everything USB have picked up on a new Plantronics product, the Voyager 510-USB, which works both as a Bluetooth headset for your mobile phone and as a softphone with your PC.

Erm that's all well and good but what's a softphone?

A softphone is a device which simulates a real phone over a computer network. For example any handset you may use whilst talking on Skype, or any other VOIP provider, is a softphone.

If it's your dream to look slightly insane whilst apparently talking to nobody Bluetooth headsets are pretty much where it's at. Plantronics are giving you reason to wear the headset whilst your at home as well, so here's your chance to edge closer to being a fully fledged cyborg.
