Hmmm, another news about Motorola for today. If you’re a Motorola-hater, unfortunately, I still have another Motorola-related post coming up after this. But you may like this one since it’s not about cell phone. Instead, this is about Motorola and Burton Snowboards new Bluetooth-enabled Audex Jacket series, designed specially for the winter sports season.

The Audex jacket is integrated with Motorola’s Bluetooth Wireless technology to provide a control center for handsfree communication and entertainment while skiing or doing other winter activities (except sleeping… you’re not a bear, aren’t you). The control panel itself is located on the left-hand sleeve of the jacket for simple and easy access to your incoming and outgoing calls, and music selections. On the hood you can find the speakers and microphone. all of them can be accessed via a Bluetooth-enabled cell phone or iPod (through hidden wires within the jacket).

The Bluetooth-enabled Audex Jacket Series is now available for around $599.95.

Next year, Motorola and Burton will release another co-op product, the Audex Protective Gear. It will include Audex Helmet and Audex Padded Hat, both equipped with Bluetooth stereo headphones.
