Supertooth ONE - connect two phones simultaneously
by Volker Weber
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.
