    Bluetooth Headsets?

    I'm looking a getting a Bluetooth Headset for my wife. She LIVES on the phone and has a good sized commute. She is having shoulder issues and I thought it would be good to take the strain out of her neck and shoulder.

    Who uses them and which ones are better?

    Me being the gadget freak I am, of course I use one. lol. I have a Jabra (125). But, I would say stay away from that one. It works very well with with my Moto RAZR (work phone). But, unless it's fully charged, it often disconnects from my Blackberry. (where I really use it) I am currently slobbering over one of these. I've ready many super reviews on them. If you're willing to spend the extra cash they're worth it.

    I really want to get one of these.

    You get a custom mold of your ear that then hooks up the headset. I have one of the earpieces from my corporate customer service days, and it is fantastic..

    I've gone through a couple of different headsets. I now have a Plantronics 510 and it is great. It doesn't slip out of your ear and it sounds better than the phone itself (if thats possible).

    I am not a big fan of the bluetooth headset. I found them to be bulky and I often forgot to recharge them. I tried for 2 weeks and went back to the wired version or put the conversation on speaker.

    I love my blue tooth. I use it when driving. I used to get caught in the seatbelt, with the corded ear pieces.

    Everytime I see one of those earpieces I always say...
