Sony will be rolling out its Wireless Headset for the PS3 console at the end of October – in Japan, at least, bringing an immersive online communication experience for gamers who are rocking to new gaming titles that support the online chat feature. These titles include SOCOM: Confrontation, Resistance 2 and MotorStorm: Pacific Rift.

Offering simple operation and accessible voice chat on PS3, this sleek and compact Wireless Headset is an ear hook type headset, designed to fit either ear. Installed with Bluetooth, it pairs automatically with PS3 by simply using the bundled USB cable. The inner ear phone speaker of the new Headset along with the noise cancelling feature when in High Quality mode delivers stable, superior sound. Additionally, the bundled cradle can be used to charge the battery which will allow maximum of eight hours of voice chat when fully charged. While the Headset is connected to PS3, it will support on-screen indicator showing the headset connection status, battery charge level, speaker volume level and microphone mute status at a push of a button.

You will have to fork out 5,000 yen for this baby, but think of the coolness factor that comes along with it.
