World's *est: Nextlink Invisio G5 Bluetooth Headset

Nextlink, whose older "AX" model was the only Bluetooth headset I could be arsed to keep in my pocket (until I gave it away), has announced the "Invisio G5," purported to be the world's smallest. Whether it is or not, it's a just a wisp of a thing, weighing less than six grams. It's not much bigger than an actual tooth—or much smaller, depending on your species.

Of course battery life will be affected by the fact that there's little space to stash a capacious one, but the G5 looks to do alright, with four hours of talk time and 150 hours of standby. As long as you remember to charge it as often as you do your phone you'll probably be alright.

I like the look, too. In fact, were it not available only in Europe at the moment, I might consider taking the leap to Bluetooth again, even though I currently have a perfectly functional headphones/mic combination at the moment.

The G5 is about $160 in U.S. monies.
