Have been checking out the 220, 205 and so on.... All the ones with 3.5mm jacks. The only deciding factor between them seems to be battery-life. Was curious what Esato's opinion and experience is? Only requirements are 3.5mm, a2dp......Thanks.

I'm also interested in a stereo BT. Think the DS205 is the newer product and should be better. but the supplied earphones is just a normal earbud style. Should be a HPM-64 and will probably not sound good.

I've had the DS220 for nearly a year now and the battery is nowhere near what is stated. Am lucky to get 3hrs of music playback from them. My LG HBS-250's go for 4 times as long and have loads more features.

Thanks for the feedback. The LG's don't have a 3.5mm jack though. As far as I can tell.

IMO HBH-DS980 is the BESt BT handsfree but it lacks 3.5mm audio jack. [addsig]

I'm using the DS205 with my HPM-77 headset. It's good, connection with my SE phones is stable and doesn't drop or anything. Battery life is average, nothing to rave about, but enough for my usage. I charge it about once a week, but I use it purely for music.

So of the 205, 220, and 200; which is the best for the money? Doesn't matter to me which headphones they come with. I've been trying to find a site that would allow for a side by side spec comparison but haven't found one yet. Are there any other manufacturers that make a similiar product with 3.5mm jack?

I have both the 220 and the 200,first i bought the 220 but the clip have broke so then the 200 that is just the same only the (better)headphones delivered are in ear (220)and not the normal earplugs that come with the 200... so if you have a good headphones and you do not need the original ones take the 200 if you don't, you better take the 220 or the 205. (which i do not know so i can not say.)
bt. life in both 220 & 200 is the same (bad)...2,5-3h,sound is very good.

Just got my DS205. Charging it now. So far so good, works with my W902 perfectly. Very happy with it although it has no caller id and track name display. The EQ also works, which is a pleasent surprise to me.

I'll post more about the sound quality after I've spend more time with it.
