Motorola has announced a partnership with Oakley to create Bluetooth headset eyewear. Currently Oakley is selling a line of sun glasses with an MP3 player built-in, but it's not clear if the Bluetooth line will have a similar design. Details and designs are set to be unveiled by mid-year.

Company executives said their mutual objective is to deliver evolutionary and innovative products for consumers who want hands- free, untethered operation of their electronic devices.

I'm tough to please style-wise but I do love Oakley stuff and have several pairs of Oakley glasses, my fav being the x-metal as worn in MI2. can't say I'm interested in the MP3 glasses but I'm keen to see what they do with Motorola for these BT headsets

I love my Oakley's but im not keen on the MP3 glasses, hopefully the bluetooth ones will be an improvemnet.

Because the platform sends bogus messages while charging, that is why!!!..But why this change of heart?..We sense a charger connected, oops, we will not shut down after all!!!..*********************** UI BASIC, HOLD YOUR HORSES

I was keen to purchase the mp3 glasses but after i read the reviews i promptly changed my mind.But the bluetooth version does interest me a lot more now,and i'm likely to get these,but i doubt the design will be a lot different from the mp3 version. [addsig]

I like the rugged, almost military, design of the MP3 glasses, I just don't have much use for MP3 in my sunglasses

@masseur

Yes exactly, especially where i reside, there are not many opportunities to listen to music while wearing sunglasses
