The law has changed in several states and now we HAVE to wear an earpiece when talking on the phone while driving. Plus, it is safer. But, if you don’t like wearing a Bluetooth earpiece in your ear, or you want to hear your sweetie all around your car, then you need the Parrot MiniKit Slim.
I tried one out and loved it. Setup was pretty easy. Once it is connected to your phone, it learns your address book so that you can just touch a button and speak voice commands for it to call whomever you like.
It attaches to the visor above you, so it’s close and the sound is loud and clear.
I honestly don’t use it much unless I am in the car alone, because being in a car full of kids and trying to talk on a speaker phone does not work out so well. 🙂 But when I do, it is very convenient!
Check out this video to see how easy it is (great music in this video too!):

I need this because I find it difficult to hold the phone while driving and talk because I have a stick shift! and this would solve the problem

I could really use this as I wear hearing aids and cannot use a conventional in-ear bluetooth.

I’m on the road a lot and in my state it is illegal to talk on a cell phone & drive.
Yes, I do a lot of using my cell phone – I’m on call 24/7 and they do call me.
I need this, because I am a terrible horrible rotten driver

i need this because I don’t have ANY hands free things for my phone, so I just end up not talking on the phone while driving at all, because safety is my main concern. I’d love to have this and be able to chat during mindless treks!
I need this bluetooth to give to my mom she talks on the phone all the time while driving and everytime she calls me I freak out cause Im afraid she will crash.

We only use cell phones. I would love to have this to use in the house as well as the car. My 3 year old suddenly turns into a monster child whenever I put a phone to my ear 🙂

I soo need this! Brilliant! I am constantly trying to juggle driving, talking & two kids in the car. Help!!!
I need a bluetooth because I do talk when I drive and I can’t find my bluetooth! 🙂
I do quite a bit of driving and don’t like to fiddle with my phone cause it is a touch screen.

I need this for my hubby who travels for work and uses his cell phone while driving. Thanks for the chance.
we now have a law in our state, must be hands free

I’d like it for my husband who does talk while driving, he uses a bud. but it always seems to run out of charge. I do not talk on the phone while driving, I am usually talking to my son silenttributary at yahoo dot com
I need this bluetooth because I spend a lot of time traveling between college and my parents home. I often get calls during the drive and this product would make driving and talking safer.
i don’t talk while driving..pulling over can be a pain though.

I need this for hands free operation of my phone while in the car. I do not talk on my phone in the car without bluetooth devices. It is now illegal in the State of Ga to use any electronic device in your ear while driving.

I talk on the phone while driving via speaker but I have to hold the phone; this will make my talking while driving truly hands-free.
I really could use this while driving, i talk on the phone a lot while driving !

I need this so I can occasionally talk while driving. I do sometimes, but only on speaker so I can be handsfree.

I love that you can simply touch a button to use the voice command. Sometimes when I’m driving I want to make a call but the hassle of unlocking phone then using voice command or dialing makes it prohibitive. This would come in handy

I’d like this because I would get into the habit of putting it on the visor and wouldn’t be digging through my purse etc which distracts from driving. This device would definitely help to keep me focused on the road.

I don’t need the device personally, but my wife does! She drives quite a bit with the kids in the car, and I really need a good way to keep her “honest” about using hands-free, in order to keep everyone safe!

I need this because it is the only way to legally use your phone in my state (and as you mentioned, it makes it so much safer!)
I just got a new phone and now I need a new bluetooth. With three girls to schedule for I am always on the phone and my speaker doesn’t always cut it.

Sometimes it is the only quiet time for me to actually talk to my friends and family without interruptions. Also when my daughter calls I need to be able to answer my phone.
I need this because my current headset is held together with super glue and duct tape.
I need this cause I drive on a military post almost everyday.

this like a safety feature everyone should have one in their car. Even if you don’t use it much when you have others in the car its still allowing you to drive without holding a phone. Great ideal, we spent the weekend researching devices like these thank you.
we have alot of videos of family events that take up space.

My reason is close to the same as the storage… my hubby is in the US Army, and deploying soon. And no matter where I am driving or what I am doing, I do NOT want to miss the calls from him. And if I got a ticket for driving and talking, I would be in big trouble since we live on post 🙂
