How do you like it?

My Motorola H700 is crapping out on me after only 18 months. And I am not a heavy user.

I need to buy a new one. And I'm looking for somethig reliable.

I'm in the market for a new one. Lost two to the pets (cats knock them off the desk, then the dog uses them as a chew toy), and my wife ran one through the wash.

Thanks for the info. I need a spare because I keep losing my Plantronics 520. It works well, but I keep misplacing the dang thing. I'm not excited about buying a new one because I'll eventually lose it.

I had a couple of Motorola H700's too and they kept falling apart... The pieces are all in a ziplock bag in the house somewhere.

I went for a Plantronics Voyager 510 Bluetooth Headset Windsmart. It works great, and noise-cancellation when talking in the car with a window down is outstanding! I ended buying 2 more, one for the wife and one for my son who drives trucks for a living.

I hope this new Motorola works out well for you, Moe!!

Hands-free cell use is now a law when driving in CT. I have two older motorolas, but find them very uncomfortable. This style seems to be a little easier to wear.

Perhaps buying two would be in your best interest

My father just got a jawbone very similar. It seemed comfortable so I figured this might be too.

The Jawbone was $100 more than this though, and he got it on sale!

Maybe yes. Maybe no.

There's inexpensive and then there's cheap.

My local Verizon sells this for $80.

I found a few reviews that give this a decent rating.

Good to know.
Some of the other "bargain" ones have had horrible reviews.

Just FYI, Jawbones are on sale if you google them. just make sure that you get a Jawbone 2. I only payed 50 bucks for mine, cuz it um fell off a truck...(its good to know people) But you can usually pick one up for 80 bucks or so if you shop around

Default Re: Anybody need a cheap bluetooth?

Got my bluetooth yesterday. Works GREAT! The clarity is better than any other bluetooth I have used, and my wife didnt even realize I was using it until I asked her how it sounded.

Only complaint is that they only sent one earpiece... Would have liked if a couple different sizes were included.
