Knowing whose calling you without having to pick up the phone itself to glance at the display is a boon when driving. The ability to do so, without engaging two minds at once can make driving trouble free. Sony Ericsson's latest hands-free kit sets out to solve this problem the HCB-150 features text-to-speech, so the Bluetooth unit simply tells you who is interrupting your commute. It has touch-sensitive controls and does talk, in case you're afraid of talking gadgets; feature an OLED display for visual Caller ID. Once paired with your cellphone (in fact, up to 5 different handsets) the speakerphone sucks out all the contacts, and there's a handy jog dial to scroll through them.

Battery life is impressive too, with 700hrs standby and up to 25hrs talk time. The Sony Ericsson HCB-150 should be available globally from Q2 2008.
