http://www.infosyncworld.com/news/n/3368.html "Rather than using the now-common Bluetooth standard, the headset relies on magnetism for transferring audio over short distances - a technology which the company says is five times more power efficient than competing wireless technologies. What's more, users can charge the headset on the run using a cradle powered by AA batteries." "The Unleash headset utilizes Near Field Magnetic Wireless Technology to create a low-power communications channel, rather than relying on conventional radio technology. According to Reason Products, the Unleash will not interfere with other wireless standards - including TDMA, CDMA and GSM, whilst also providing the benefit of being up to five times more power efficient than competing technologies." http://www.reasonproducts.com/products/unleash.html I thought the transmission mechanism sounded interesting. Since it is handling voice both directions (speaker and microphone), maybe it could be adapted to send data both ways.
