Sony Ericsson makes listening to music and taking calls a quality experience with the launch of the Stereo Bluetooth Headset HBH-DS980.

Given a talk time or music playback time of up to 6 hours, the HBH-DS980 has to be designed with comfort in mind. The soft silicon ear buds on the stereo headset are provided in three sizes. Separate to the headset, the overall unit weighs in at just 27 grams.

Finished in a stylish charcoal colour, the Stereo Bluetooth Headset HBH-DS980 features a hidden 'magic mirror' display that only becomes visible once the headset is activated. Use it to view the title of the song playing on your phone, the battery status of your headset or the details of the caller trying to reach you.

You can use the HBH-DS980 with more than one device at the same time. The new multipoint function allows you to listen to music stored on a Bluetooth enabled PC/laptop and handle calls from your phone at the same time.

The HBH-DS980 will be available worldwide from Q3 2007. The Stereo Bluetooth Headset HBH-DS980 at a glance:

• Weight: 27 grams
