New BMW and MINI Bluetooth headsets
BMW has just made available two mobile phone hands-free Bluetooth headsets – one with a BMW design and one with a MINI design. The headsets are aimed at those who own BMW or MINI cars that did not come with Bluetooth handsfree systems from the factory. In Malaysia, it’s safe to say that all iDrive-equipped BMWs have Bluetooth handsfree systems installed.
The Bluetooth headset by BMW weighs 8 grams and the rechargeable battery offers a talktime of 5 hours and a standby time of 7 days. You can charge them via a charger that you hook up to your car’s cigarette lighter. It can be paired and used with two different mobile phones at the same time.

L-O-L… I’m using this headset now. It’s a Plantronics Discovery 925. I’m sure BMW is going to overcharge the headsets thanks to them being “re-branded”..

Yup…the Mini’s version does look more classy than BMW’s one. Agreed with Jeffery Chew, should put the BMW emblem on it!!

BMW and MINI owners are advised not to be idiots when the headsets are Plantronics which can be bought for a lower price…..this is a public service announcement from a user of Platronics….XDD,
Platronics has space technology (read wikipedia) and now a subsidary of Altec Lansing sound systems..
