D.Muse iBlue bluetooth headset for iPod and cellphone

Like the iMuff before it, the D.Muse iBlue promises iPod bluetooth integration with your bluetooth enabled cellphone — when the phone rings, a push of a button shuts off the music switching the earphones to the caller. The earphones include a built-in mic and volume control, and the whole package is compatible with the mini, Photo, and 3G, 4G iPods. "Talk time" is limited to 4 hours and (we assume) is the listening time as well — meaning, your headphone batteries are gonna die before your iPod. Unlike the iMuff, the iBlue does not support the A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) and AVRCP (Audio/Video Remote Control Profile) bluetooth profiles. Should you care? Oh yeah, since support for only the Hands-free and Headset profiles means you won't get the full stereo experience. But hey, if you're really jonezin' for it, the iBlue (unlike the iMuff) is already shipping for $55 green.

Why-o-why doesn't someone produce an FM tuner add-on? Radio is THE killer feature for portables - who doesn't get sick of their music or want to listen to the news?

This is funny. A buddy of mine has had a website named iBlue for years. And he's an Apple junkie.

so... there are no pictures of the actual headphones? the website only had pictures of the device, and the device on the ipod.
