Last month the company was referenced in a 2003 Chinese court decision to sentence someone to 10 years in prison for publishing subversive information on the internet.

Phone headsets are a vital telephone accessory for office workers and cellular phone users. Telephone Magic’s website has been redesigned to make it easier to find the right headset at wholesale prices.

Niagara Falls, Ontario, February 3, 2006—Telephone Magic Inc. is pleased to announce the redesign of the phone headset section of its award-winning website. The updates can be seen at www.telephonemagic.com/phone-headset/phone-headset.htm. The redesign brings improvements in both navigation and products, making it even easier for commercial and residential visitors to find the best headset for them.

Everyone who has used a phone is familiar with the neck pain that often surrounds long-time phone use. Cradling the phone handset between the ear and shoulder causes neck and back pain and can lead to permanent injury. Phone headsets, once limited to call center agents and switchboard operators are now cool and trendy accessories for successful businesspeople and hip youngsters.

The most popular models continue to be cordless headsets such as the Plantronics CS50 and the GN Netcom 9120. Also in demand are the new Bluetooth? headsets which connect wirelessly to cellular phones and wireless PDAs that support the Bluetooth wireless standard.

Phone headsets have moved into the mainstream,” said Jeff Jackson, President of Telephone Magic Inc. “When skeptical bosses see how much more productive and happy their workers become when equipped with headsets, they often order more for the rest of the office. We’ve seen companies order one to start and then follow up with an order for a dozen more units. Eliminating a major cause of neck pain is a great way to improve the bottom line for your business and improve staff morale.”

Jackson continues “Wireless phone headsets are particularly useful when combined with handset lifters which allow users to answer calls when they’re away from their desks. These devices make it easier for your staff to stay in touch with customers and with each other, making both your internal and external business processes run more smoothly. “

One of the greatest adopters of headset technology are today’s youth. It’s common to see young adults seemingly talking to the air, only to find out they are sporting one of the new wireless cellular phone headsets. These wireless headsets are small, sleek and stylish, and are a perfect fit for today’s “always-connected” youth.
