LG HBS-200 Bluetooth Stereo Headset


I just buy a new pair of bluetooth headset at an amazing price of 32$. The headset it have and autonomy of 10 hours of talk time, 8 hours of music play and 25 hours of standby. All controls are on the right earpiece, and they include a play/pause/stop button in the middle (also used for phone last number dialed and answer), volume controls on top, and a control on the outside border of the headset that allows you to shuttle between songs.

In other words are it have all controls what you need for playing music and talking on phone.

For a good music quality your cellphone must be embedded with the Bluetooth A2DP stereo music.


Specifications
* Range: 33 feet (10 meters)
* Bluetooth version 1.2
* Embedded Bluetooth profiles: A2DP, AVRC , HFP (hands-free car kits), HSP (communication headsets)
* Weight: 10.4 ounces

What is really strange I got this headset from an online shop what are selling for Amazon at 32$ but on amazon it costs 45$ or more. Follow this link if you want to get them: LG HBS-200

World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King


Today is the day (or tomorrow is the day :) ). I just get the new World of Warcraft expansion: Wrath of the Lich King and I just wait to play it. I can only guess that will be the last addon since are running out of enemies that are in the base storyline of warcraft, we killed Kel’Thuzad in wow, we killed Illidan and Kil’Jadden in The Burning Crusade expansion, and now the final enemy encounter will be probably the Lich King himself, and thus ending the warcraft story.

Also is possible Blizzard to continue the storyline with another fantastic journey ... but this only Blizzard knows.

Some features of the new expansion:
* Level up to 80
* One new playable class: Death Knight what is start directly from level 55
* Battle with the Lich King at the Frozen Throne
* The creation of a new profession: Inscription
* Profession level up to 450
* New items, creatures, quests, dungeons, wapons, sepll
* Siege weapons and destructible buildings (just in PVP)
* New character-customization options, including new hairstyles
* Improved Graphics Engine (applied to shaders, flame effects, water appearance and detailed shadows)
* New factions including the Tuskarr , Frenzyheart , The Oracles and the Taunka, a racial cousin to the Tauren
* First completely PvP zone
