A phone with built-in Bluetooth headset storage – will it catch on?

Now what a great idea this is – no more frantic scrabbling around for your Bluetooth headset when your phone rings.

The Star NX788 is a Chinese-made device but it has a feature that might just catch on – a small compartment on the back that stores your Bluetooth headset.

The Star NX788 itself has is pretty basic with dual-band GSM, stereo Bluetooth (A2DP), a 2.6-inch touch screen, 1.3-megapixel camera and microSD card slot. But then you wouldn’t buy this phone for the latest mobile technology – you’d buy it so you’d always have your Bluetooth headset to hand.

There is one problem with this though. As anyone using a stylus-based handset will know, you’re bound to lose it at some point. A replacement stylus costs nothing, but a Bluetooth headset? It could get expensive if you’re a forgetful person.
