In the store where I bought the GV435 headset I also looked at BT dongles, class 1 BT 2.0 EDR with A2DP profile. They did not have the Jabra A320s that I think I will be buying.

They claimed that all SE phones newer than K750 (included?) and all newer headsets are class 1, with a range of (up to) 100 meters. I will not beleive them until I have tested it myself, of course.

Anyone here who can confirm this?

My k800i will only pick up my 100m belkin dongle from about 10m away so I presume it only has 10m range. The only SE phone that I am aware of that had class 1 100m was the Z1010.
