The World's First Bluetooth Headset Watch

This is an interesting idea--rather than looking like Lieutenant Uhura and wearing your Bluetooth headset in your ear all day, you can strap the Bluevoice Telephone Watch to your wrist. The Bluevoice, which is available in analog ($127.95) and digital ($119.95), functions as a normal wristwatch until you get a call. At that point, you remove the headset component from the watch, attach it to your ear, and it magically transforms into a fully functional Bluetooth headset. Cool idea, and the watch isn't bad looking either!

Create exciting playlists from your existing iTunes library - free!

The Filter is an iTunes plug-in that creates playlists quickly and easily. All that is required is to pick a couple of songs that you like (e.g. with the mood and tone that you want to set for the playlist), and The Filter searches your iTunes library and automatically creates a playlist that matches the songs you specified.

The Filter requires iTunes 6 or 7, (Windows only at present), a broadband connection, and an iTunes library with at least 200 songs. It also works with other MP3 players including the Creative Zen, Nokia N series, and most USB-based music devices.

Update (Oct 23): I've been using The Filter for a couple of weeks now, and I'm very pleased with it--it really does an amazing job of creating playlists of related songs from just one or two "seed" songs. I highly recommend it!
