I have a cochlear implant and I've had several of these audio induction loop tidbits for my CI processor (hearing aid) for years. In my opinion, the wire is a PITA and attracts a lot of attention.
This spring, Advanced Bionics is coming out with a bluetooth-enabled CI processor so that I finally can be able to listen to music on my smartphone via bluetooth without having to deal with wires. I've already got the money waiting to reserve myself one of these processors.
- veb 14y agoI'm due up for a CI in May, but they don't offer Advanced Bionics here in NZ! :(
- mvleming 14y agoIs it called a Cochlear Implant when Advanced Bionics makes it? Do you know if Cochlear is going to release a processor that's bluetooth-enabled?
- ricardobeat 14y agoHmm, that's a dick move. They were called cochlear implants before a company decided to call themselves "Cochlear". Just in case: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cochlea http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cochlea
- mvleming 14y agoI know there's a part in the ear called the cochlea but I thought the company just added the letter r to the word and made that their name; I didn't know the word existed before the company. Thanks!
