Super cool. Smart bean

The Bluetooth Fairy

You've gone through dozens of subpar pairs of headphones over the years. After a lot of trial and error, you've settled on The Perfect Pair of headphones for what you need, and you even got a backup pair in case they stop making them, because you don't want all that work to be for naught.

However, technology constantly marches on, and one direction it's marching not all headphone manufacturers foresaw: wireless. So while your latest purchases are all Bluetooth-compatible, your favorite headphones aren't. The Smartbean can fix that. Plug the headphones' 3.5 standard audio jack into this little device, and it'll play receiver for you. Go long! Well, not longer than 30 ft., but it'll deliver your music wirelessly to your headphones pretty much anywhere within a room so you're no longer tied down.
