Iqua's UFO Bluetooth speakerphone

If your current method of "conference calling" involves crowding around your phone's underpowered speakerphone with a few smelly co-workers, here's some hope for you: Iqua, maker of the Smart Badge headset ID badge combo, is busting out a Bluetooth unit called the UFO that works as a speakerphone for either your Bluetooth phone or a VOIP connection. There is a screen for scrolling through contacts, reading messages, and checking caller ID, and you can even use the little guy for radio if you wish. It should be out this year, no word on price.

I'm still waiting for a Star Trek-styled Bluetooth handsfree. Maybe there will be a phone that looks like the communicator from enterprise and the pin that goes in to the vest/suit...

yeah....

It does resemble the roomba, which got me to thinking, what if you combined a roomba with this product, then you could have bluetooth enabled teleconferences on it while it cleaned your floors. Merge it with that Darwin Robot that tastes things, and it could bring you tasty snacks from the kitchen at the same time. It would be great.

That is until the Government figures out how to make it kill people.

Phone by SmartBadge, design by Roomba.

May be good for the blackberrys with bluetooth but no speaker function
