Product Description

theBoom noise canceling headset gives you the freedom to make calls anywhere and be heard clearly. Just think, no more shouting into your phone to be heard over background noise - theBoom gives your call unparalleled clarity in any environment.

For the first time, you can present a professional presence to clients and coworkers from anywhere, at any time.

Clients or prospects from a car, airport, train station or a convention hall.
theBoom easily attaches to most cell phones. Home and office line adaptors available.

You can also hold a private conversation without worrying about being overheard. You can speak softly in a noisy environment, even whisper and be heard. Delivering only your speech to the person on the other end of the line, theBoom is the only product that allows you to communicate clearly in virtually any noise level.

theBoom establishes a new standard of comfort for headsets. theBoom uses the best materials available, soft hi-tech rubber and magnesium. The rubber parts are bendable to ensure a comfortable, tight fit. To design theBoom, UmeVoice teamed up with one of the best Industrial design firms in the world, Frog Design. They brought you the first Mac, and many other great products since.

"As a realtor you can imagine the unpredictable times you might get a call from a client or prospective buyer. Unwanted background noise is very distracting and unprofessional. The boom truly and significantly reduces all background noise so the person you're speaking with only hears your voice. It's a must have phone accessory for the car, restaurant, home office or any noisy environment." - Frank Soda, Realtor

"I truly love this product, as it has enabled me to conduct business with clients in my car without being concerned about noise -- even with the top down! because I am often driving somewhere, this makes a big difference." - Jay L. Pomerantz

Pros:	None
Cons:	Expensive, Awful Sound Quality, Loose fit

So I could have purchased a $5 headset for my Centro, but decided, based on the advertised background noise cancelation feature and apparent quality of product, along with the high price, that this must be a a decent headset. Boy was I wrong. Headset came in today, and I tested it in three situations. - I first recorded my voice in a quiet room. My voice was real tinny, scratchy, and cheap sounding. There also seemed to be "background noise" although the room was closed and very quiet. Next, I recorded myself talking normally while walking through the house. A television was on in an adjacent room and a ceiling fan was also on. My voice was again very tinny and scratchy and, although the house was fairly quiet, it seemed all background noises were amplified. In the last test, I tried it while sitting in the living room, with the TV on and the ceiling fan running - far below the intensity of sound that is in the advertisements for the headset. The headset seemed to PREFER background noises over my own voice... they actually seemed amplified, and my voice was barely discernible. I also lowered my voice to a whisper, as in the advertisement, and my voice was no longer discernible. I am an engineer, and would be able to identify any obvious mechanical issues... In other words, I was using the headset correctly and it did not appear to be faulty. If you want a headset with the quality of a freebie that would come with a phone purchase or one you could buy at a convenience store on the fly, and money is absolutely no object to you, and you ignored the advertisement for this unit, then you might be ok with this. Other than that, this unit is not worth more than a couple dollars, let alone $150. I have no idea what the glowing "customer comments" on the Boom site are referring to, but its NOT this headset. Worse purchase Ive made in a long time.
