ok decided to buy one now and best price i have found is £135.
so i'm going to order it 2morrow so was wondering if ANYONE out there advice me not to or to get it ?
any tiny niggles about it at all ? as its a LOT of money to pay for a hands free kit, so is it worth it ?
Also do u think it will be much cheap next few months or be much much better say by xmas time ?
like 100 metre range at £50 and weigh 5grams and last 1000 hours ?  |

By Christmass? Thats a long time in this world
Surely the Bluespoon must be out before Christmass, and it weighs only 9 grams, and is (less than) half size the HBH-30.
Some say the standby time will be 400hours, but I don't think that is confirmed.
Anyway, not 5g, 1000h, but still a big difference to the HBH-30.
But if you need it now, Christmass is no good |

So talking to yourself with a wire hanging from your ear is not sillylooking ?

TO captainsm: how does it work with a distance matter? Got a 10 m. working area or not? And how good is the stand-by time (if you also talk some ~60 min per day) ?

tiidusk, that should give you about 2 working days if you use it that much.
10m is BEST range... I'd say BT has a realistic range of about 15 feet. |

well.. 10 meters at the MOST if you're in line of sight with the phone, i wouldn't count on more than 5-6 meters.
talking 60 minutes a day is NO problem, i often go twice that long ! |

yeah - i once read a post about that burning feeling - apparently its not serious. Dont count me on it....
I'm an avid eBay user. Everything i have - comes from eBay. You have to be ready to spend a bit of time looking around at the going prices, and keeping an eye out for the auction - but in the end - if your tight with your cash - eBay is the say to go....
just make sure you know how ebay works - and keep your eye out for obvious frauds.

Hmm... If you're concerned about looking weird or nuts walking down the street with a stick hanging out of your ear and talking to yourself, think of it the other way...
Why not look at like this:
You're an extra tech-savvy and up-to-date person that's always on top of the latest technology and that the stick hanging out of your ear actually has someone on the other end talking to you. The power of the media today has made it possible for people other than the owners of Bluetooth headsets to know what they're all about.
The bottom line: some might think you're a weirdo with a stick hanging out of your ear talking to yourself, others will think you're an extra up-to-date person who's always on top of the latest technology and knows how to pick the right toys.
I say get it
