Cool Bluetooth headset

Can anyone recommend a good Bluetooth headset?, must be small compact, comfortable to be worn with Oakley's or Kapalua's, must have a good battery life & good noise reduction as the headset will be mainly used in a sports car.

Re: Bluetooth headset

I have a nokia hdw-2 its compact and neat the only thing is batt life should be 3hrs lucky if i get 5mins so i have bought another batt see if that improves the talk time as apart from that its the tops i know peps who have other makes and they have nowt but troble. But like all things that run off batt like the two laptops ive had first one used to last 5mins the one i have now 35mins looks like i am just unlucky...

Cool Re: Bluetooth headset

Thanks hairy_mick for the info
I have heard also that when using the bluetooth headsets the audio breaks up alot when your having a conversation?.

The Nokia hdw-2 is around £79.99 does it have built in Noise reduction like the BT Jabra 250?

I was also told a safe bet was to go with the Nokia hdw-2 or the BT bluetooth Jabra 250 if using it with either my 3650 or the 6600.

I've got a Motorola HS810, it's neat, with good quality sound-even with the roof down on my car.

I would recommend it.

Re: Bluetooth headset

I got my BT Jabra 250 today on 14day home approval. From www.handsfreewarehouse.com

It seems ok so far. But on the other hand I got some strange looks from some people as I was walking home

Re: Bluetooth headset

I`ve seen all these people walking around with these things on their ears. Reminds me of something from a Sci-fi movie. Are you all sure you`re not talking to the Mothership circling the Earth.

Don't tell everyone Earthling - it's our worst kept secret

...Update - it went back

I couldn't get it to voice dial.

So I picked up a cheapo one for £35 Which is a bluemate 616.

Apart from having a weird plug for the charger (a shaver type plug) it sounds great. Still won't voice dial - but I suspect that's my 'repaired' '3' handset (Motorola A920)
