Sony's SOCOM PS3 Bluetooth headset gets official


Sony Computer Entertainment Japan just got official with its PlayStation-branded SOCOM Bluetooth headset (model CEJH-15002) we've seen bouncing around since June. Set for a ?5,000 (about $46 tax inclusive) release on October 30th in Japan along side SOCOM:CONFRONTATION, the Bluetooth 2.1+EDR headset with noise cancellation will automatically pair with your PS3, making it ready for games supporting on-line chat like SOCOM and Resistance 2 coming November 13th. The bundled USB cradle will charge the headset for up to 8-hours of voice. As a bonus, when used with the PS3 you'll be treated to on-screen indicators showing your connection status, battery charge and speaker levels and microphone mute status all at the push of a button. And for those of you wondering, yes, it should pair just fine with your cellphone since it supports both the HSP and HFP Bluetooth profiles.

Hey Randy, thanks for sharing all the details on the headset. I had heard about it but didn't know about it's battery life, noise cancellation, and on-screen indicator options. I'd imagine it works for computers too, so I'll probably pick this up.

By the way, I'm sure there are some readers out there that are still looking to get a PS3... if you don't have one I suggest taking a look at this Stacker 2 contest going on where you can win one (or a 360, winner's choice). All you have to do to enter is design a 6 Hour Power t-shirt. It's surprisingly easy to enter online, and right now there are less than 275 entrants so the chances of winning look to be pretty decent. Check out the details here: http://www.brickfish.com/Entertainment/Stacker2?tab=overview

I hope you don't mind me commenting on your post, Randy. I work with 6 Hour Power so if anyone has any questions let me know and I'd be happy to help. Definitely send me an e-mail if you enter too, and I'll vote for your design. Good luck!
