Can Jabra's HALO Redefine the Image of Bluetooth?

Jabra has recently announced its new HALO Bluetooth headset. Packed with two stereo speakers and a microphone it'll pair, via Bluetooth 2.0, for all your wireless music-listening and friend-chattering needs. But does it defy all that is the Bluetooth headset stigma?

From visual conception Jabra has definitely introduced something evolutionary. The black, sleek design is minimalistic, yet simultaneously a nod to the over-the-ear headphones particularly popular in the 80's. The matte finish gives the headset an overall clean look professional enough for office or the morning job. The HALO also folds for storing, granted I question how useful this tri-fold mechanism really is. In wearing them I imagine it'll feel slightly like wearing a hair beret... a futuristic hair beret. But hey! Is that so bad? I can see us all wearing something similar in about 2040, but has Jabra jumped the gun? I think not, this is a perfect opportunity to shift the headset environment from that of ridicule... to... well.. music-lover with style (and bent hair.)
