Cool Hands-Free Tie Thingy

[HardOCP News]

By a show of hands, how many of you guys think this thing is cool? Thanks to “Cabarlo” for the link.

The Tie Up concept is a solve to that problem by placing the mic right below your mouth. Slide it up the lanyard to answer and conversely slide down to hang up.

I could definitely use a gadget like that. Thanks for the link!

I would only worry about after extended use the slider would get loose and would slide down to hang up on some one.

Good idea, but it's massivly ugly.

You're still going to look and sound like a mad man with voices in his head to other people. You always will, no matter your form of handsfree phone communication.

• You need to use two hands to answer (one to hold the bottom of the lanyard)
• How is having a condenser mic below your chin better than having one in front of (or beside) your mouth?
• You still need an earpiece--how many wires does this thing have? Is it a stethoscope?
• Do you really think you won't be asking "Can you hear me now?" if the volume is controlled by swinging?
