• Very comfortable | Rating: | Date: 2008-08-19

  Bought it after reading many great reviews. It feels comfortable and so far reliable.

• Would rather use 510 | Rating: | Date: 2008-08-18

  Stick with the 510 - whenever I think there may be a better mousetrap - the 510 ends up beating the pants off of the competition.

• Not what I expected | Rating: | Date: 2008-08-17

  The product was difficult to wear, didn't stay in my ear, sounded like I was in a tunnel. What is worse, I sent it back to exchange for the 510 model and a few weeks have past and I haven't received the new product. I would avoid doing business with the independent company who sold this head set.

• I GAVE IT A 3-STAR UNTIL I FOUND ANOTHER ISSUE!! | Rating: | Date: 2008-08-13

  Pros:
  
  1.) It works... (sort of)..
  2.) Ships in a timely manner (under free shipping. 4 days)
  3.) Sync 2 Bluetooth compatible devices
  4.) Works with a Blackberry! (phew.. what a relief)
  5.) A good product for the average "cheap" person
  6.) Doesn't signal a plane with a blue blinking light to land on one's big round or flat head... lol.
  7.) Charger looks cool...
  
  Cons:
  
  1.) Don't expect glamor, you won't find it in this device - in as much as i feel very silly walking around with it throughout the day, i wish it was smaller and lighter like my blueberry muffins... lol.
  2.) Conforms to my ears, but it's always a pain to yank that hook around my ear, again -- doing this in public to me feels a bit silly... lol.
  3.) The box says 33ft for range... LYAZ!!! lol... no such thing, by 10ft it's all rangy and distorted
  4.) I don't like the feeling of the hook around my ears, i'd rather one that i can just yank in directly, like an MP3 earbud of some sort which do exists, but those are waayy to expensive and realistically not necessary for me since i don't spend 24 hours on the phone.
  5.) Easily disconnects when not in range of 33ft... LOL!
  6.) Feels cheap... DON'T PUT THIS IN YOUR POCKET for too long and forget, lol you'll regret it...
  7.) They Say it's reduces Noisey Backgrounds... again, LYAZ!!! whoever i'm on the phone with can too hear every noice and crackle that's going on in the background.
  
  In a nutshell, for the price, it's horrible... i might as well had purchase the one for $17.78 on amazon without the "waaw, 2-way bluetooth pairing connection or the fancy cheap charger" I had commented on a user's review why she had to flat out give the product a 1-star rating, now i see why and i appologize... i feel your pain boo boo...
  PS. if you put your phone in your pocket with your bluetooth device in the ear, you can forget about clear communication... you can hear the person but it will be distorted, Oh' and for hahas... i actually put the phone (blackberry curve) in my RIGHT-backpocket and everytime i turn my head to the left to talk, lol the device would mute the person... lol funny! Seriously though, if you get this device you will have the urge to bring it back, IF you're on a tight budget, but will corp with it's defects because you're too lazy to take it back and go through the whole process in getting your money... ughhh!

• Perfect for the iPhone 3G. | Rating: | Date: 2008-08-12

  As I was waiting for my iPhone 3G to come in I decided to purchase a new headset with it. Plantronics is the company I trust the most with their history in headsets and communication technology. It has a comfortable fit on the ear and honestly can be worn for several hours before feeling any discomfort if any. The design is nice and modern that comes with it's own docking station. Battery life is very well and the sound is nice and loud. I can hear the other person nice and clear as they can hear me perfectly as well. The button on the side is not as big as I would like it to be though it is a minor complaint. I can be a nice distance away from my phone and still have great connection with the phone though of course the quality goes from good to poor pretty quickly. The price is a perfect fit for this perfect headset. I highly encourage people to purchase this headset has to be the best one I have ever owned.
