....looking to purchase one of these, and could probably do my own research....but I'm looking, instead, to you fine people for advice.....

What should I be getting?

I have one and don't really like it. When you talk to people with it, the person you are talking to can hear conversations across the room from you. The mic on the one I have is set really hot.

I have the Motorola H700.

Thanks for your reply, Rick....

I was actually looking at the 710 awhile back....perhaps I'll revisit that choice....

I would send you mine, but it's been in the drawer so long it won't hold a charge anymore.

Jawbone 2. End of story. If you buy anything else, it's your own fault.

It's the same headset, just 50 dollars more and a tad prettier. I was going to upgrade but after testing it, realized it would be like throwing my money away.

I got one from fry's last thanksgiving for free after rebate, it was a 30 dollar no name worked pretty good initially than a momth later it only works well if your right in the same area as the phone like 5 ft , if i walk to the kitchen (about 10 ft and a wall away it breaks up). i guess i got what i didnt pay for . I have a samsung that i got for 5 bucks the same time, i think i'm going to try it out and hope its better....this one was regularly 50 bucks.I'm sure it will be a piece of crap like this one

Another good one.

I'm completely anti-bluetooth. Sick of some a-hole talking, looking directly at me from the perfect angle where you can't see the earpiece, saying something that definitely could be mistaken to be directed at pretty much anyone... then you respond and he looks at you as if you're stupid/crazy... then they walk away... no "oh, i'm on the phone, wasn't talking to you, sorry" or anything. Yeah, BT really has the potential tendency to make a ton of people look like self-important douches. I understand the point and convenience of the technology, but I've seen more people than not act like the situation I've just described. I also don't think most of these people understand that there is a point during the day when you don't have to be on the phone constantly. Again, understand why the technology is useful, just think it's unnecessary.

But if you're one of the few who actually use bluetooth properly and respectfully to others, I applaud you!!!

I too think people who wear them outside their cars look like huge douches/tools but in CA you can't talk on your phone in the car so we have to get earpieces.

I have a Motorola Bluetooth but I usually just talk on my phone anyway cause I don't make calls often enough to don it every time I need to.

Everytime i see someone with that stupid lookin thing in their ear, i want to whip out my crack and piss on them.

I just wish at this point someone would come out with a personal bluetooth frequency jammer... something that would work within like 20 feet or so. That would ROCK!!!
