While the Moto 360 was unquestionably the wearable of today, Motorola quietly showed off a little something else. Something very little, in fact. The Moto Hint is a teeny-tiny Bluetooth headset, and it's the first I've seen that isn't actively stupid-looking. But it's not just for making calls-this is the new way to interact with your digital assistant.
Basically, we are living in the movie Her. Almost.
The Moto Hint is built to act as a companion for your new Moto X and it leverages the phone's amazing voice assistant. Like the phone itself, when the Hint is in your ear it's always listening for your key phrase (which is no longer limited to, "Okay Google Now.")
We were told the Hint would be coming sometime "later this fall," and when it does it will retail for $140. The good news is that it will work with any phone that supports Bluetooth, but of course to take advantage of its Jarvis-like powers, you'll have to have the Moto X, too.
