bluetooth basket weaving



Look closely. Looks like a man casually weaving a basket in a Polynesian Paradise. Doesn't it.

In fact, he's weaving an environmentally correct bluetooth wireless mobile headset from coconut palm leaves in Costa Rica.

The cellular conductivity of Costa Rican coco palms was first recognized by Leonard Dale Vincy of St. Peter, Florida. Vincy was in the Gulf fly-fishing big jigs for sawtoothed Patagonian toothfish when L. Dale's good friend Simon, an unemployed carpenter from Lazio, ran his chainsaw against the grain of a towering Cypress and, as the fibers flew, everyone's cell phone coverage improved.

A few days later, while attending a graphic artists conference in Panama, L. Dale had an epiphany. Costa Rican palm fiber has a crazy resinous goo that conducts satellite radio frequencies. It was palm fiber that could prove to be core component of the next generation of wireless headsets. Initial tests confirmed everyone's suspicions. D. Vincy was right.

Unfortunately, L. Dale doesn't have the necessary capital to move this project forward fast enough, i.e., before Google gets a hold of it.

So. Buck up campers and send $10 to Hootenanny Coco Headset Co. Email us and we'll give you the info you will need to send your funds via PayPal.
