Plantronics Discovery 975

In our modern day the use of cell phones while driving is forbidden in most of the countries but to make easier on everybody we are required to use hands free devices while driving so all of us can drive focused and careful but since my car doesn’t have the Bluetooth capability I decided to go to the next best thing and it is the Plantronics Discovery 975.

I love this design since the first time I saw it in the final season of [24] and I looked it up and discovered it was the new Plantronics Discovery very slim sleekly stick with a steady cool answering button all that with a leather pad for sense of style and the ear speaker synchronized with your phone contact custom ringtone not mentioning the comfy and nice silicon ear bud for it will adjust with your ear size (detachable of course).


In other words it’s a Bluetooth earpiece combines easy-to-use operation with outstanding sound quality, Dual-mic AudioIQ2 technology cancels background noise for superior clarity, Patented gel ear tip offers great comfort and a secure fit, Included case with LCD display charges your earpiece while storing it.


The headset comes with a charger and a case charger so you can charge your ear piece on the go with few spare ear buds although I didn’t quite know what to do with the small stripe but I think it will be useful, the ear piece price is about 129.99 (USD) which will make about 487.46 (SAR) and on Black Friday discount was about 55% if I recall, I really love my new headset it is perfect for calling and driving very comfort yet styled ear piece for mobile devices and it got 5/5 on my scale.

Renaissance Dubai Hotel, Dubai

Let’s kick it off with Renaissance Dubai Hotel the hotel is one of the Marriott brand hotels a 5-Star class in this beautiful hotel has a very comfy beds you can actually feel how to sleep in the clouds (^_^), award winning restaurant and a bar that host great virgin drinks [for me] with musical bands that will sing for you and let’s not forget the place that gathered Deloitte employees through the Middle East in this year 2010 and this is my story of my stay at Renaissance Dubai Hotel.


First of is the rooms simple, elegant and clean just the way I like it with TV subscription and a nice hot shower for your day with a complementary water for you and you guys I have to tell you about the beds I gotta tell you this is the most comfy beds I’ve ever slept in well of course after Atlantis and I was wondering if I can ask the hotel for buying the bed and take it home with me it is the perfect lying bed after long day and my colleagues agree with me in the bed point it was really comfy and cozy.


The places around here is really good looking I really loved to eat at Spice Island they made the best breakfast and a delicious lunch oh did I mention that they serve a tasteful cheesecake everybody in the training got addicted to it I don’t remember the name but I remember what it looks like it has a light fluffy white whip cream and it was a lemon yellow cream cheese. And after a long night of fun you can always hang out in a bar called Harry’s Place of course they serve alcohol that I don’t like what so ever but they can still serve you with their virgin [alcohol free] drinks I really love that lime margarita it looks good and tastes wonderful and it only for 24 DHS.

Also Harry’s Place host every night a musical band to sing for their customers and I was lucky this year because a good friend of mine talked to me about them not mentioning the good people of Facebook community most talented dynamic duo that he listen while in his free time and he was right they are so good even my colleagues like their singing the fantastic versatile duo took over Dubai after successfully entertaining live audience in nightclubs across Asia and Europe and their specialty is Pop, Rock, Jazz, Reggae and Latin renditions of your favorite music and they called [Red Hot] the band members are [Red, Guitarist] and [Rena, Lead Singer] Red is amazing in his tool he obviously got used to it until it became part of him and Rena has a beautiful voice she really is good and she can sing any song and master it wonderfully I have a Rolling Stone track here but apparently I can't because the blog won't allow me (-_-) but I'll think of a way to make it happen (^_^). Red Hot was so generous that they agreed to take a picture with me it was a precious moment that I will cherish this picture for the rest of my life.


By Friday night after the training I went home and said goodbye to all my friends in Deloitte and my good old ones here in Dubai and the wonderful staff of Renaissance Dubai Hotel it was a wonderful week for me that I won’t forget I didn’t have the time to say goodbye to Red Hot because of my plane but my surprise that Red spotted me so I did get the chance to say goodbye to him and pass it by to Rena I really hoped to see them both but the skies want me to be there to meet my friends and family that been waiting for me to come home and before I forget my review for The hotel is 4.9/5, Spice Island 4.0/5 and Finally Harry’s Place is 4.5/5. And my final words to them is thank you for making my stay in Dubai Relaxing and wonderful and I hope we meet again someday.
