Overview
myTalker™ by Tekkeon is a Bluetooth gateway that enables you to make and
receive calls from/to your mobile phone while you’re listening to your iPod or
MP3 player. myTalker connects between your iPod or MP3 player and the music
headsets, so you don’t need to remove your music headsets to take the call.
myTalker supports advanced calling features, like last number redial and voice
dialing, so you don’t need immediate access to your mobile phone. In fact, you
can store your mobile phone in your pocket, backpack, or briefcase—just about
anywhere in close proximity that is convenient for you.
myTalker is compatible with all Bluetooth v1.1 and v1.2 mobile phones, and
any iPod or MP3 player with a standard 3.5mm audio jack.
