A wireless headset system according to  claim 7 , wherein the headset base is adapted to automatically initiate a call transfer from the second telecommunication device to the first telecommunication device, when the when the first link is established and has a predetermined strength. 
     
     
         9 . A wireless headset system according to  claim 6 , wherein the headset base is adapted to establish a second radio link with the second telecommunication device and to automatically initiate a call transfer from the first telecommunication device to the second telecommunication device, when the second radio link is broken or becomes sufficiently weak. 
     
     
         10 . A wireless headset system according to  claim 9 , wherein the headset base may be adapted to automatically initiate a call transfer from the second telecommunication device to the first telecommunication device, when the second radio link is established and has a predetermined strength. 
     
     
         11 . A wireless headset system according to  claim 1 , wherein the headset is adapted to perform a call transfer from the second telecommunication device to the first telecommunication device, when the first wireless link is established or obtains a predetermined strength. 
     
     
         12 . A wireless headset system according to  claim 11 , wherein the headset is adapted to perform a call transfer from the second telecommunication device to the first telecommunication device, when the first wireless link-is established and has a predetermined strength. 
     
     
         13 . A wireless headset adapted to be paired and wirelessly connected with both a first telecommunication device, and a second telecommunication device, wherein the headset during an active call on the second telecommunication device is adapted to automatically initiate a call transfer from the second telecommunication device to the first telecommunication device upon establishment of a wireless link of a predetermined strength between the headset and the first telecommunication device. 
     
     
         14 . A wireless headset system comprising
 a first telecommunication device,   a second telecommunication device, such as a mobile phone or a smart phone,   a wireless headset adapted to be wirelessly connected by a first radio link to the first telecommunication device, wherein   the headset system is adapted to transfer a call from the first telecommunication device to the second telecommunication device, when the first wireless link or a second radio link between the first telecommunication device and the second telecommunication device when the link to the second telecommunications device is sufficiently strong to sustain said link.   
     
     
         15 . A method of transferring telecommunications links for a wireless headset system having
 a first telecommunication device,   a second telecommunication device, such as a mobile phone or a smart phone,   a wireless headset adapted to be wirelessly connected by a first radio link to the first telecommunication device,   comprising the steps of   connecting a call between to a first telecommunications device and a headset   monitoring the connection link between the first device and the headset;   in case said link weakens to a predetermined level   transferring a transfer a call from the first telecommunication device to the second telecommunication device.
