Jabra T5300 headsets
Shipping this year is the T5300 series of wireless headsets by Jabra. Unlike most headsets, the 5300s are not meant to be used with cellphones: the T5330 is built for office landlines, while the T5320 pairs with VoIP phones. Both use Bluetooth 1.2, providing a standard range of 33 feet, and can be charged with an included cradle for up to four hours of talk time and 60 hours of standby. Speech is processed through an onboard DSP processor, and further enhanced by acoustic shock protection that prevents loud, potentially harmful noise bursts. Plugging a headset into a cradle will automatically switch control back to the handset. The 5330 is available today for $149, with the 5320 coming in the second quarter at the same cost.
