Available at the end of April, the Freedom Slim Bluetooth keyboard will give you a very portable QWERTY keyboard. It is almost as small as a credit card so it won’t take up valuable space. The Freedom Slim is charged with a standard mini-USB plug and is good for 4 hours of use or 100 hours standby. It uses the Serial Port Profile (SPP) supported by most PDAs or Smartphones.

Don’t have Bluetooth built into your car, but don’t want to do any extensive wiring or installing to get it? The Bluetooth rearview mirror is just the gadget for you. It is basically a rearview mirror that will allow you to see who is calling you, make and receive calls, and use the built-in speakerphone so that your cell phone never has to leave your pocket. This one will set you back $170 and is available now.

It seems that Parrot will be releasing a Bluetooth enabled boombox later this year. The accurately dubbed Parrot Boombox will stream music wirelessly from your cell phone or Bluetooth enabled MP3 player. At 12 pounds and 60W this thing should pack a little bit of a punch, as it should if you are spending close to $300. The Parrot Boombox should be available second quarter.
