4/22    Costco is selling "Bluetooth Capable Premium Digital Hearing Aids" for
        $1999.99 a pair.  My Bluetooth cell phone headset is maybe $30 for one
        ear.  Why does hearing aid cost so much?
        \_ Medical insurance?
        \_ Does $2000-your medical deductible = $30?
           \_ How come insurance companies allow such rip-offs?

4/22    Does anyone here in CA have either T-Mobile or Cingular GSM service?
        If so, could you tell me where you are and how good the coverage
        is there? Thanks. - ciyer
        \_ Used to have sprint, switch to cingular.  Sprint calls felt less
           staticy, and Cingular sold me a phone that died just days after
           the warrantee expired.

1/3     What headphones (non-earbud) do you use or recommend for your
        Ipod or other MP3 Player?
        \_ I borrowed my friend's Sennheiser HD500 and could hear sounds
           I've never heard before on many songs. They're quite pricey
           but you'll notice the difference in sound quality.
        \_ I wonder why iPod doesn't have bluetooth. I hate the wires.

        Excel Mobile on it and keep addresses/phone numbers.  HP iPaq line

        \_ I just upgraded from an iPaq 3835 to an Axim x51v.  The wireless is

12/29   Motd gadget guru, I would like to get a noise cancellation
        headphone for use on airplanes and commutes, should I go with
        something like Sennheiser PCX 250, or Shure E2/3c? The Shure
        is more portable, how well does it work in airplanes? Thanks.

12/20   I have a Nokia 3220 (the one with rubber lights on the side).
        Since it doesn't have Bluetooth built in, I bought the AD-5B
        Bluetooth adapter which on the web site says is compatible
        with 3220. I also bought a Bluetooth headset. Here is my
        problem, after plugging in my AD-5B into the 3220, I pressed
        the control key and the Bluetooth headset sync button, but

Frustrated cell phone users will appreciate the increase d signal strength & reduced number of dropped calls with the Wireless In -Vehicle Amplifier. With 10 times the signal strength, users will experi ence many more miles of uninterrupted service. And since it's wireless, there's no physical connection to the cell phone. It works with most current carrier protocols (Analog/AMPS, CDMA, TDMA & G SM) at 800 & 1900 MHz and is compatible with Bluetooth technology. No special programming is required as the unit automatically recognizes the carrier's protocol . The wireless in-vehicle amplifier has automatic gain control of both t he uplink & downlink paths to prevent any external oscillation due to an tenna installation variations. Its advanced electronics are very sensitive and able to receive small signals which would go undetected by most cellphon es. It also has a better transmitter with double the power of your cellp hone. This allows your voice to be heard by distant cell sites, increasi ng coverage up to 50 miles or more. Phones vary their power output based on their proximity to cell sites. Therefore, your phone transmits less power - resulting in safer u se and longer battery life. Portable installation that allows for easy-in & easy-out portability of the in-vehicle cellular signal enhancer. Permanent (hardwired) instal lation that allows for permanent installation of the in-vehicle cellular signal enhancer. This allows the amp to be moved from vehicle to veh icle. Hardwire means the interior antenna is 100% installed into the veh icle. We only sell accessories to customers who purchase the main amplif ier from us (previously or currently).
