Considering that Bluetooth headset makers are now dealing with the harsh realization that consumers don’t actually like these things any more, Plantronics — a staple in the sector — is hoping to snag some dollars from the unknowing corporate purchasing managers in attendance. The Voyager PRO UC is a dual-mode headset that packs integrated Bluetooth capabilities and ships with a USB dongle that allows softphone conversations (think Skype) to take place on your headset rather than through your laptop’s built-in microphone / speaker. Users can even stream audio over it and hear alerts when a VoIP call rings in, and as expected, there’s quite a bit of noise nixing technology baked in. The only problem? The $199.95 price tag that’ll be affixed to it when it ships later this month.
