Bluetooth technology has become extremely popular over the recent couple of years, nowadays being a “must” for almost all handhelds and portable computing systems. Given its success, it's no wonder that a huge number of adapters capable of bringing the “gift of Bluetooth” to all sorts of ordinary products has reached the market, and that's exactly the type of device we'll talk about as follows, namely the Octopus from Tattu Mobile.

According to the manufacturer, the Octopus enables users to take hands-free calls and listen to their favorite music wirelessly wherever they are. The gadget has a 3.5mm adapter enabling users to listen with their fav pair of headphones and can also be plugged into the car stereo system, through the audio in socket, and linked to a mobile phone to play the music stored in its memory via the car stereo.

At home, users can connect the Octopus to any Bluetooth-enabled PC and plug it into the stereo system to stream all the music on their PC to the stereo instantly. Octopus even sits on a docking station, letting users stream music to the device and use it as a speaker phone.

Of course, one won't have to worry about not hearing when they happen to receive a call, since, the music pauses immediately and the user can take the call through the speakers. The music beings again seamlessly when the call ends.

Moreover, the Octopus manages to keep the audio quality at a fairly high level, and is simple to set up and use. It can be charged on any iPod docking station or directly with the charger in the box. With a battery life of six hours of continuous music (or 35 hours in stand-by), Octopus has enough power for users to take their music wherever they go.

The Tattu Mobile Octopus A2DP Bluetooth adapter sells for somewhere in the vicinity of 40 pounds sterling (or 61 US dollars), which is not that bad a price point, given the level of versatility this thing can provide.
