This is something I've wanted for decades now. Wireless stereo headphones that have a boom microphone attached. In these days of Bluetooth, VoIP, Skype, Mp3s, Winamp and so on I'm amazed I still can't find it.

I listen to a lot of music via the PC. I also use Skype. I've got Skype set so it auto-pauses the music on an incoming or outgoing call. What I want to do is to be able to get up and walk around rather than be tied to a cable. And to be able to get up and make a cup of tea without having to unplug myself.

If this was Bluetooth, it would be cool if the same approach could be used to link the headset, phone and portable music player (iPod).

As the headphones would need local power perhaps they could be noise cancelling as well. [from: JB Ecademy]
