Other cities, like Chicago, ban talking on the phone while driving inside city limits. Even when it's legal to talk on the phone while driving, it still pays to stay safe. The Jabra SP700 Bluetooth speakerphone eliminates the need for a handheld mobile phone. The corporate executive gift works in the car and with a car stereo. Why the Jabra SP700 makes a unique corporate gift idea:
- Connect a mobile phone with the Bluetooth speakerphone in the same way that any Bluetooth device connects to a phone, through the Tools, Options or Bluetooth Set-up. Once a cell phone finds the Jabra SP700, calls will automatically be routed to the Bluetooth speakerphone.
