Lamborghini lends an ear, name for Bluetooth headset
You wouldn't expect the owner of a six-figure supercar to be yapping through just any old headset, would you? Lamborghini wouldn't, and to that end has lent its name and badge to a new Bluetooth earpiece.Part of the Tonino Lamborghini range that brought us the Lamborghini espresso machine and Lamborghini cologne, the eponymous wireless gadget offers up to six hours of talk time and 160 hours of standby over a 10-meter range. The Tonino Lamborghini Bello sells for $70 and could be just the accessory to go with that special-edition Nokia.

You must be in the Bay Area. Yes, Santana Row attracts the small **** big ego crowd that would buy this thing. Lambo must feel the need to follow Ferrari in pimping their brand into mass-market retail.

This is about as gay as carmakers offering watches or guys that wear leather jackets that say corvette on them.

Ummm, no sensible gay man would wear car-branded watches or over-compensatory Corvette jackets...thank you very much.
FYI, "gay" isn't "lame" but a description of people who sleep with those of the same gender.
Ya breeder!

I bought one of these at CES 08, and boy do I regret it. It's reception is horrible, it has trouble pairing with every phone I've tried to pair it to, and for 9 dollars more you can buy a Jawbone. Stay away from this thing! (Plus, it ships ONLY with an international charger, which makes the user go out and buy an adapter if they use it in the U.S.)

When you put this in your ear, it automatically makes your gold chain and medallion look larger.

The only fashion accessory that 16 year old boys and 40 year old women can wear and think they both look equally cool.
And both be equally wrong...
