I've had strange experiences of talking on the phone and replying to someone nearby who didn't realise that I wasn`t talking to them. It makes me wonder whether phone companies are taking the right approach in making headsets ever more miniscule. Nokia seem to be making a poor attempt at masquerading this headset as a piece of jewellery, with the Cleopatra style neck strap almost giving it the appearance of a pendant -but the attempt is half hearted; the design way too functional and reserved. Perhaps what they should be doing is making these more deliberately and outlandishly a functional piece but with a boldly decorative element, and kiss goodbye to the overdone minimalism that seems to reign in the mobile & headset world at present.
