Live at CES: Nokia Unveils BH-904 Bluetooth Headset to Better Separate Voice From Ambient Noise

While I’m snowed inside the blizzard currently pummeling Chicago, About.com GPS guide Fred Zahradnik is live and on the Las Vegas scene at the 2009 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES).

In asking him to tune his antennae to some interesting cell phone unveilings, here’s one that caught his eye: the Nokia BH-904 Bluetooth headset.

LAS VEGAS (CES) – Nokia introduced a new Bluetooth headset (the Nokia BH-904) here at the 2009 International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.

It’s designed to do a better job of separating the user’s voice from ambient noise in mobile or public environments.

The headset also has the ability to maintain two active connections so you can simultaneously connect to a PC (i.e. for VoIP). It’s said to provide up to five hours of talk time after just 15 minutes of charging.

I liked its technical look. Also, Nokia is addressing a real problem with its ambient noise fix because these headsets tend to be used on the move. There’s no price or availability date yet.
