ParticipantOver the last couple of years I have gone through 3 Nokia Bluetooth headset devices that came with my 7610 phone. The first 2 went belly up fairly early on, same fault, crackling noises from the loudspeaker and lousy battery useability, each time replaced under warranty.
The last one eventually was thrown in the bin by me out of total frustration over it being total rubbish. I needed something far better for comfortable hands free use and at last I have bought (what appears so far at least) a much better device.
A Jabra BT205 (£30) the sort that hooks round the back of your ear with a stubby boom mic and an earpiece that pokes right in my earhole. Very much better reception, audio quality is a million times better, hands free reception whilst hurtling down the fast lane is just great. And best of all it is extremely comfortable stuck in my ear for hours on end (I hardly know I’m wearing it half the time – ’til my phone rings that is!)
God how I used to hate that Nokia headset, flapping in my lug-hole, extremely uncomfortable and unsightly too. And now I’ve found a better way to be hands free and legal 😀
Are YOU hands free out on the road (hand on heart now!) ??????

I have been using Blootooth for a couple of years now and find it very good, But have heard a few rumors that some road safety campaingers want to ban there use even to include full car handsfree kit.

KeymasterYeah, next you won’t be allowed to speak to a passenger either.
David was telling me a while ago about a poor woman that got booked for eating an apple in the car whilst driving. It took a car and helicopter surviellance to catch her, your tax dollars at work as they say. 🙄
I’ve been using BT hands free for several years, headsets, Parrot car kits and now a Honda one as well as a headset for the other phone and all work well.
