Default Hands-Free Cell Phone Usage, On the Cheap

If you don't have BlueTooth but your cell does have a speaker, one of these could do the trick http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll... D10"]http://


Here it is installed



Few things about the holder
1) Forget about using the vent clip, it's useless
2) Don't trust the adhesive on the back of the holder, use a couple strips of 3M double sided tape
3) To keep the phone from popping out of the holder while driving, use velcro (a piece on the back of the phone and a piece on the holder)

My cell has a button on the top of it that you can push to answer an incoming call, and it automatically goes to speaker without having to flip the phone open. So this cheapo mod has worked fine for me. Your results may vary, depending on how your phone works.

That's definitely another option, but there are certain parts of town I'd be leery about driving around like that.

Not me. I have no shame.
But I'd probably use some panties rather than a brassiere.

I'm so glad this post is going according to plan.
So far we have learned that rovert likes to wear a bra on his head and that rubicon likes to wear panties on his head.
I refuse to say what I like to wear on my head, but it does involve a sheep and some pasta.
HC!

This is what I use, this is the first gen, they have since advanced 2 generations, but even the first is the greatest Bluetooth device I have used.
