Just received the Bluespoon Home box, that allows you to connect your bluetooth headset to a standard phone line.

I've been waiting for something like this for a very long time.

Small box, only 3" x 4".
Really easy to pair the phone with upto 5 headsets.
Answers the landline from your headset - Neat!
To make calls you have to use a regular phone to dial the number, and then you can take-over with the headset.

Works very well, except for the echo though. Caller on the other side can hear me fine. But i get lot's of echo on my side. Kind of annoying!

Anyone else tried this one out?

OK,
Here's another update, just incase anyone is interested....

This unit 'sucks' bigtime!
The echo makes the damn thing un-useable.

Switched from my HBH30 to my trusty HBH65, and the echo is a little better, but the sound is worse. Furthermore, it just loses sound after about 1 minute. The headset is still connected to the unit, and the unit to the phoneline, but the audio is all dead!

Wierd.

And Nextlink market themselves as a 'high end' manufacturer?
Perhaps they should test their products before they ship them!

I am trying to use a PlantronicsM3000 with the bluespoonhome and although answering an incoming call is possible, I can not use the headset to make it open the phone line.

can anybody find this device listed as an approved bluetooth product on qualweb.bluetooth.org? i can not.
