Bluetooth is relatively pervasive these days, and the next iteration (3.0) has just been announced. You probably use Bluetooth without thinking about it, anymore. I have connectivity in my car, with my mouse and keyboard, and certainly with random accessories for my iPhone. Now, I’m wondering…

The BlueAnt Z9I headset is very cool. It’s not just Bluetooth, it charges by USB. It’s a proprietary connector, but it comes with the cable. The nice thing is that you can pair this one headset with up to five devices. You can use it anywhere you can well, pair it.

When the check engine light comes on in the car, there’s always that slight panic wondering whether your car is about to bite it while you’re driving. DATZOO offers a solution that might give you some peace of mind while simultaneously allowing you to quickly adjust a bogus problem in your system. Their new FixDat diagnostics tool plugs into the On-Board Diagnostics II port on your car (the same port used for smog checks in places like California and Washington). If the car generates a check engine event, FixDat reads the code and makes it available to software installed on any Bluetooth connected cell phone or laptop. You can read the code, decide whether it warrants a trip to the mechanic, and opt to reset the check engine light if you prefer to remain oblivious to your problem. In this video we see a demonstration of FixDat in action, testing the car of Elizabeth Del Sol (who recently appeared in Mexican Werewolf in Texas) for engine problems.

When traveling, there’s always a tradeoff between convenience and portability. You want all the creature comforts of your office PC, without taking up all the space required to accomplish it. One of the most commonly left behind items is a mouse, because we all seem to find the touchpad on our laptops to be good enough. Newton Peripherals is the first company to come along and offer a viable alternative to mouse portability, providing a functional solution that fits inside your PC Card slot. The MoGo Mouse uses Bluetooth to connect to your PC, is credit card sized and offers a surprisingly functional alternative to mousing with a touch pad. At CES 2007, Jack Corrao of Newton Peripherials gave Jake a quick demo of the original PC Card MoGo, the new Express Card MoGo with scroll wheel and the pint-sized Bluetooth adapter everyone should be dying to any legacy PC that doesn’t have Bluetooth onboard.
