Astro Headset and Hanger

 

 

Check out the new headset hangar for the Blackbird! We collaborated with Astro Gaming to create a headset hangar for the VESA mount on the Blackbird. Any headset will fit the hangar, However should you walk away with an A-40 headset, I’m sure Astro Gaming wouldn’t mind. In fact they have a special deal for Blackbird owners where they will throw in the hangar for free if you purchase a headset. Just like the new HP Firebird and Voodoo Omen, the A-40 also got props for winning a CES Innovations award. So you can enjoy them like I do [ Below… Sorry about the photo. It was taken with a cellphone camera and it was dark and I was gaming. ]

 

SOLO with the Astro Headset

 

Here is the official blurp:

 

ASTRO Gaming recently collaborated with HP’s Blackbird team to create the first "VESA mount" accessory for HP’s Blackbird PC. The ASTRO Headset Hanger is designed to bolt directly onto the Blackbird, using the unique VESA mount feature on the right side of your PC. You can hang your favorite gaming headset or headphone for easy access and protection when not in use.  

The Hanger is optimized for ASTRO’s A40 Headset with a center display feature for the ASTRO Speaker Tags, but it will work with virtually any headgear you own. It can also be used to wrap and protect your cables from other peripherals... or anything else you want hang on your ‘bird.

To purchase, go to: www.astrogaming.com and choose the ASTRO + HP Bundle (A40 Audio System & Headset Hanger) available January 23, 2009 and use the discount code 348FFHPV when ordering to get the Headset Hanger for free! If you just want the Hanger, ASTRO is offering the product for a special introductory price of $19.95 plus shipping & handling. Also, please check out the rest of the professional-grade ASTRO gaming gear, bags, and apparel.
