Well, got the headset this morning. MUCH nicer than HBH-10/15. The size is nice, and the battery on the earpiece is comfy. If you want to switch ears, you don't have to pull out anything, you just flip the earpieces hinge to the other side -- very nice.

The sound quality is TONS better too. No overmodulation problems. I tried screaming into the headset, and the other guy heard me perfectly. Overall, it' very nice. I will report on bettary life as i use it.

Although things like the bluespoon look nice, and the Motorola is smaller, I have to believe the HBH-30 battery life will be tons better (well, we know the Motorola batteryllife isn't so great). I think the most likely better HBH-30 battery life, and larger form of the HBH-30 over the forthcoming bluespoon, will be worth the weigh out.

Jeffharris, so does the sound quality get worse as you move further away from the phone?? Also, is it loud enough to use it on noisy street?? Thanks

It seems to have slightly better range than the HBH-10/15, and the sound quality is much better. I have notried it out on the street, as I have a flu, but tomorrow I will go out, and I'll let yo uknow.

Thanks, Jeff............take care yourself.........I really wanna get it and also wondering how's the battery life of the headset and do you just turn the bluetooth function of the phone to automatic so it won't drain the battery of the phone as using "on" all the time??
