Nokia Bluetooth Loopset adds “hands-free” to your Hearing Aid!

It looks like Nokia might be the first to offer bluetooth “hands-free” mode to those of you using hearing aids.

The Nokia Loopset simply plugs into your hearing aid to allow wireless bluetooth connection to your PDA or cellphone.

Its “Wireless Loopset” is a device designed to hang around the neck that basically turns a t-coil-equipped hearing aid into a Bluetooth headset. In addition to providing the wireless connection, the Loopset includes such features as vibrating alerts and single-button dialing, according to Gearlog, and willl also work with cochlear implants.
