New Cheap Hands-Free Car Kit Uses Bluetooth Headset

 Winplus were showing their new Yada YD-V1 Hands-Free Kit at the Showstoppers event before CTIA tonight, and it looks rather interesting. Most hands-free kits for cars use microphones and speakers that try to block or filter out the engine noise, but the Yada YD-V1 Hands-Free Kit uses a Bluetooth headset instead. To answer the phone, you just grab the small Bluetooth headset out of the cradle (which charges the headset, but not the phone) and jam it into your ear; picking up the headset answers the phone.
We weren't able to test the quality, but it's an interesting idea that is well priced (at $59.99) that doesn't require you to have cables everywhere and should sound better than most hands-free kits. It comes with holders that can mount it on a vent or on the dashboard; optional suction cup and cup holder mounts are available
