I believe this technology is allready incorporated, I mean baked. So perhaps people just need to be made aware that there really is no need to shout into your phone. |

If you mean that the phone mike should
not pick up ambient noise, I think most
phones do this already as Zeno says.
What do you mean by 'near-end
sidetone' - is this the reproduction of
what the mike is picking up, into the
earpiece of the same phone? |

No, I mean having a phone headset that would make it so the person holding the phone would hear nothing but the phone. Yeah those headphones are bulky, but they'd also provide a visual indication to passers-by that the person was oblivious to their surroundings and could thus be safely relieved of their wallet. |

This would be dangerous. What about hearing car horns and sirens? |
