Which Bluetooth Headset?
-
I'm considering getting a bluetooth headset for my phone. Right now, the two front-runners are the Plantronics 975 and the Jawbone Icon (released last month). So what is everyone else using?
.45 ACP - because shooting twice is just silly

"The staggering layers of obscenity in your statement make it a work of art on so many levels." - J. Jystad, 2001Can't speak to that one, but I can warn you away from the Plantronics Voyager series - the little cockroach shaped ones. Terrible, static-y quality, pretty much unusable with my Blackberry in the office and forget about inside a noisy Corvette. As it happens, I'd bought a new headset for my Plantronics Calisto land line / wireless phone (about which I just can't speak highly enough), so I used the old one for my cell phone and it worked great. Pricey, though (~$60) so I wouldn't recommend it as a stand alone purchase if there are less expensive quality options. That said, it's cheaper than the one you're considering, though a bit more bulky. By the way, have had a couple of opportunities to be on the phone with Plantronics, and they have extremely responsive and helpful customer service reps who appear to be born and raised in the USA. One crappy product aside, it's a company I'll keep doing business with. For those of you living in other countries, before you become indignant at my customer service statement, remember - just because we're speaking English doesn't mean we're speaking the same language. Frustrations abound here due to the confusion and communication difficulties caused by cultural differences and attitudes.

Jystad, 2001I have "Plantronics Explorer 370" and its nice, connection and voice quality is nice, but its water proof so it has that rubber coating outside which becomes hard in few months and now, the charging port cover is not closing anymore because the rubber becomes very hard. but your both the options are premium headsets and might not have the problem. also dont consider anything else then jawbone and platntronics, I have used other bluetooth (Nokia / Samsung / Jabra) before platronics and they are very bad.

There should be a law that says those things have to be shaped like dicks. That way when people consider getting one they realise they'll look like a dick head.
Well, when you're driving through a school zone, if you need to talk on your phone, you need a hands-free device. I'm actually after something that keeps me from having to take my eyes off the road in order to answer the phone...

The Plantronics rep was in the store, and privately told me that he uses the Jawbone in his car, because it is much better than anything Plantronics has. I have a BlueAnt V1. I am very pleased.
Go Beavs!!!
