Nokia BH-905, my sweet dream

I have been looking for a good pair of Bluetooth headphones for a long time now. I was able to find the Plantronics P590, and they do OK. Nokia just announced my wet dream, the BH-905.

I work in relatively noisy environments, such as machine rooms, and small offices where they pack 6 of us consultants into a space smaller than Blackwalt's office. My P590 headphones protect my sanity somewhat, but the music quality is passable, and they do not offer noise canceling technology. When I purchased the P590, they were pretty much the only Bluetooth headphones at the time. Even at that time, I was looking for an "over the ears", noise-canceling pair. None were available.

Enter the Nokia BH-905, this August.

It has everything I want:

• Bluetooth support: check


• Good sound: check


• Noise cancellation: check


• Over-the-ear covering: check


• Soft ear pads: check


• Microphone for taking phone calls: check


• Supports regular 3.5mm jack: check


• Control buttons: check


• Decent price: ch.... whoa! $500CDN ?!?!? Are they nuts ???

OK, it's got everything I want except the price. Oh well.
