New Xbox 360 Bluetooth headset unlocks business casual achievement (video)

The new Xbox 360 wireless headset has a form factor that ought prove familiar to anyone who has ever watched a businessman chew out his secretary while ordering at latte at Starbucks. The peripheral connects wirelessly to the console via its standard radio frequencies — its similarities to a non-gaming Bluetooth headset are more than just skin deep, however, with the earpiece doubling as just that, making it compatible with Bluetooth-ready phones and PCs. This one says “Xbox 360″ on it, however, to help you avoid accidentally being mistaken for a stock trader. The headset will go on sale in November for $60.

The remote will be available for $20 around the same time as the headset.
