Turning a BT headset into a real communicator

Picked up the headset, it's choice was in that it had the most features and was on clearence. I always love it when they offer the warranty though. This guy was particularly insistent on the warranty, and that it would cover anything. When I informed him that I'd be taking it apart, and would probably fry the first one, his reply was a stoic "It might not cover that." lol

So the first day we were able to get the headset apart, analyze the buttons and connections.

After taking several measurements and calculating the height with battery, we decided(Much hagling, lol) on a base layout and plan of attack.

This headsets case actually lends itself to a hack. I'm not sure how to post pics in this post, but we have pics of the disassembly, and template making process.

We've also toyed with the idea of doing a "Diresta" esque video and posting it to one of our youtube accounts showing a build. We do have to build 3 of them in total, one for each of us.

Edit* Figured it out, duh, late

We'll post more pics in the how to build
