| Gee I can see it now.... .....guy has video phone. Guy is driving. Guy's girlfriend calls. He answers phone. She is some sexy outfit saying come home now. Guys sess this. Guy gets excited. Guy crashes cause he wasn't paying attension to road. Guy spends next 2 hours dealing with angry people, tow truck drivers, and police officers.
Fact is most people can't talk and the phone and drive real well. Adding video will really make things interesting. 
Also, imagine using one of these and walking down the street.....into someone else or another object.
Maybe video to video for the home by not mobile. Not yet at least.

Darned... I did not read down far enough... I should have put my comment here!
But I agree 100%. People who talk on the phone while driving, should at the VERY LEAST wear a headset... even then the conversation should be kept short.

I would disagree atleast for me. I have found for me that the headsets actually create more of a issue. You know, phone rings, grab headset, put it on, "phone still ringing" hit ok or open your phone hit car in front of you as you look down to hit ok or adjusting the volume. I drive WAY better with just my handset.

Bakersfield, CA | Then you have the wrong headset. When driving I wear a comfortable that has a button on it to pick up the call. If traffic is heavy, I ignore it, if it is light, then I will take the call, but keep it short. If I can tell that the call will be a while, I will either call the person back after I park, or pull over to the side of the road. It is funny, but I have had people in the car with me who say that doing this is silly... but I will tell you, I am a tech support guy for an Insurance company, and I sit in the main area with the adjusters... I know all the excuses and all the situations. There is no excuse for not trying to drive safe... and your hand to the side of your head obstructs part of your view and keeps a hand off the wheel if a a sudden need for both hand should arise. |

| This works for you, it as I said it doesn't for me. AS far putting my hand to my head and obstructing my view well I guess that depends if you hand/arm is actually in the way of your "view" which mine is not. I hardly ever drive with both hands on the wheel and thats even when I'm at the track. Its just not my driving style. I do move over to the far R lane if its a call I need to take and I typically keep my calls short. Plus I just flat out don't take calls in rush hour traffic. If you ever been to ATL then you will know we have our normal 85-90 mph speed and then come around the next bend to find everyone at a stand still. I almost think it takes more concentration to not get killed in rush hour than it does racing at the track. Or atleast here it does.
