OFF TOPIC

I saw a commercial today for something called GoJo Hand Free. It's a plastic headset that holds your phone to your head. It even works with full sized phones. Whoever came up with this is going to be wealthy. I can see this being a big success.

I bet a lot of people thought of this, but for various reasons they either didn't, or couldn't, take action. Well, someone did, and now it's going to pay off!

Why would you want to strap a phone to your head rather than just use a Bluetooth headset?

I think it sounds a tad ridiculous and I'd bet that's probably the reason why people didn't take action.

I am sure you are right.

As long as they do not make it look too goofy that is.

No, that was my first thought. But think about all the people this appeals to who don't want to bother with Bluetooth. Also, it sort of looks like you're just wearing a regular headset, most of the time.

I can't help think you are being a little too enthusiastic.

  LOL! that is 'classic' - and I mean that in a 'step back in time' sort of way...
  
  I didn't know it was for a landline handset! That you plug into your computer! How convenient!
  
  Thanks

The likely beneficiary of any money made off that contraption will be the first ambulance chaser who claims their clients got a radiation overdose from the phones.

It's not what you make that counts, it's what you get to keep...

I saw it on an infomercial a few months ago. I waited 10 minutes for the punch line before realizing that it was a real product.

I suppose there's a small market of elderly, technologically stunted folks that may find this product appealing. However I just can't see myself strolling down the street with a pink phone strapped to my head.

  If you're going to strap something to your head, at least make it something useful...
