Call Me Maybe
What It Is: We’ve all made the gesture – you hold your thumb up to your ear and your pinky up to your lips in the universal signal for ‘call me’. Now what if you could actually call someone doing that very gesture? These nifty Bluetooth gloves sync up with your smartphone and allow you to answer calls while holding your mitted hand up to your face (a microphone is built into the wrist). Your hands stay warm while you feel kinda super futuristic at the same time. Plus, you can still interact with your mobile phone thanks to the nano fibers in the fingertips. Nifty.
Who It’s For: Your commuting spouse, so you can touch base while they wait for their bus or train. Your outdoorsy husband, so he can still give you a ring while spending the day ice fishing or hunting. Your favourite teen, so if they absolutely must be on the phone in the middle of winter, at least they’ll stay warm.
What It Costs: A reasonable $24.99 a pair (until the beginning of February).
Where It’s At: The Source, online and in stores. Note there are two sizes to fit lads & ladies hands.

May be right for some people but I don’t see buying them anytime soon.
Think they’d be a great gift idea for my daughter’s boyfriend, might work as a birthday present for him.
I think they would be a great conversation starter for anyone that saw you talking on them.
My boys would absolutely love these. Their phone is well – everything. It does everything for them. What a world… 🙂
THese would be such a cute gift for my partner who loves gadgets like these!
I would love to try them just to be able to see the looks on people’s faces. Is she crazy? Not crazy??? Hard to tell…..
Neat gloves-pick me!!
Bonus entry: I always need my smart phone and gloves while out so this glove is perfect for keeping me warm too.
That is so cool! It would be fun to see the looks I’d get talking into my gloves!
I think these would be great! As I sit here in the middle of the Canadian deep freeze I can’t think of anything better than having warm hands while being able to communicate. Very cool!!
I’d love to try them so I wouldn’t have to take my gloves off to use the phone.
These look great! I’d love a pair so I could keep warm and use my phone!
I love it. I would use it while bicycling all the time
These would be great for me, as I always have cold hands so with these I wouldn’t mind using the phone outside. thanks and have a great New Years
These gloves would be great for me for all the dog walking and bus riding that I do.
These would be a brilliant gift…. not sure if I could keep a serious face while using them myself!
these gloves would be cool for my oldest son
What a cool idea! But not only would it be very practical, but it would also be so funny – and who can’t use a good smile!!
I just got an e-reader so these gloves would come in handy (pun intended).
