Supertooth ONE - connect two phones simultaneously

by Volker Weber

supertoothone

Supertooth just sent me a press release about their new handsfree kit. Unique selling point: you can connect two phones at the same time. This is brilliant, because it happens quite often that I am not alone in my car. Two seats, two phones, one kit. Their reasoning is of course different: connect both your private and business phone at the same time.

I have a Supertooth Voice which works just nicely. I have only one complaint: like most other Bluetooth accessories it flashes a blue LED when connected. And you don't want that in your car, at night, within your peripheral vision.

Sounds good. I really think one could get rid of this flashing blue LED in any way.

Does the press release state anything about when it will be available and how I can decide which phone to use for dialing?

Use a black felt-tip marker ("Edding") or a tiny piece of tape and cover the LED.
If the marker doesn't cover it, use Tipp-Ex and add some black ink. That'll do it.

Surely you only have one driver in the car? The other doesn't need to be hands free...

Ben, haven't you seen a couple driving together?

Believe me: there are at least two drivers.

Ben, one drives, the other gesticulates: you clearly haven’t been married long enough :o)

Thomas, from the looks of this device, it uses the blue LED to indicate which phone is the active one. Masking the LED might not be so smart here.
