Wireless VoIP headset breaks desktop chains

(Credit: Logitech)

For all the advances made in Internet telephony over the last decade, the hardware end of the business has lagged woefully behind. All too often we've seen things like retro corded handsets or other bizarre devices that would seem to keep a caller hopelessly tethered to the desktop. The clever blokes at Logitech may have found a solution to that problem, however, with a 2.4GHz wireless stereo headset developed specifically for VoIP calls. Not only does the "ClearChat PC Wireless" headset allow more freedom to walk and talk, but it also has "laser-tuned audio drivers" that can enhance stereo ouput up to 33 feet from the computer for music and gaming as well, according to Slippery Brick. Call it a small but brave step toward freeing the masses from forced desk labor.
