Hands-free speakerphone lets you talk back like a ‘Parrot’
Jim Morrison once belted out “Keep your eyes on the road, your hands upon the wheel,” and these lyrics from “Roadhouse Blues” are a good reason to invest in a speakerphone kit for the car.
Jim Morrison once belted out "Keep your eyes on the road, your hands upon the wheel," and these lyrics from "Roadhouse Blues" are a good argument to using a wireless speakerphone kit for the car.
Don’t be fooled by its compact size – the Parrot Mini Handsfree Mobile Speakerphone ($99) is a high-performance wireless speakerphone for use in the car.
The small Bluetooth device can be clipped your sun visor for easy access to its volume and settings buttons, while the omni-directional microphone picks up all voices in the vehicle.
Unlike many other speakerphones, you don’t need to keep this plugged into the cigarette lighter (or whatever the politically correct term for this plug is these days!) as it houses a rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery for about 10 hours of talk time and more than 250 hours on standby.
Do you use a wireless speakerphone in the car? A Bluetooth headset? Nothing? Or are you one of those people who absolutely won’t use a cell phone while driving (good for you, but I don’t know how you do it).
