i have Motorola H500 and Samsung WEP410. I like the H500, think it's better than my WEP410 as far as the range I get but I wanted something smaller and the Samsung is much smaller and more stylish. Paid $30 OEM for the Samsung on Amazon. Bought one for my girl too and she loves it.
I use the ear piece that is made into the blackberry, just hold it up to your head an talk away.... lol
i haven't used a blue tooth in about 6 months. haven't found one worth spending the $$$ on to get.
lol, or if you're like me, a person who hates holding a phone up to my ear either driving, walking, or just sitting on the sofa, an earpiece is a must have, bluetooth or old school wired. I can do so much more with two free hands lol.
ok the reason I got the new headset was because when I click on the ear piece it would go and voice and say a command and I would say the person name does not work nor does anyone hear me so now it does the same thing on 3 ear pieces. they show connected but I do not know what I am doing wrong
I'm currently using the JawBone with Noise Assassin Technology. Don't find myself using a BT very often. But I have no idea what I would do without it in the morning. If I didn't use it I wouldn't be able to hold my cup of coffee and cigarette at the same time.
I bought a German branded bluetooth called the "Anycom Milos-9", so far, it has been better than more expensive Bluetooth headsets that I have used, including the Motorola H700, or the Jabra BT8010. I guess the Germans do have great engineering ..and for $29, you can't beat it.
I just got a Bluetrek Metal for ~$45. The eargels aren't great but it works in the house (with UMA) and in the car well enough. I can hear and be heard without cranking the volume or raising my voice. The appearance is quite plain and unobtrusive (and the fact that it doesn't light up like a Christmas tree is a major plus).
Voice dialing is a one-touch affair (though I must speak slowly and enunciate carefully to be understood by it). The best part is that the handset can stay in the OEM "pocket" and I still can make calls (voice dialed) on the headset.
The included "belt clip" is pretty useless (it doesn't fit on my thinnest belt - 1.5") except that it holds the USB charging adapter. It doesn't clip to a (shirt front or inside sport jacket) pocket securely enough to make me comfortable with leaving it there. But it's tiny so I just drop it into a pocket.
But it's tiny. I dropped it this afternoon and it bounced behind my valet (and I got to do some unsheduled tidying up of the bedroom floor). If I dropped it unexpectedly (outdoors, say) I don't know that I'd be able to find it without a metal detector.
With better eal gels (one that enters the ear canal like Etymotic ER20 hearing protection would be great) it'd be the perfect fit for me...

Jabra BT8040- Can use with 2 different devices at the same time and pair up to 8 different. its light weight and small. Noise reduction works good and has a2dp so you can listen to music through it. It not a bad little device and Newegg has them for 23 bucks..
I also have a Plantronics Voyager 520, which works pretty well. I hate any in-ear devices, but my old Motorola finally had to be retired. This one doesn't fit completely in your ear, and it has a hook to keep it secure. It's also fairly comfortable.
Hubby got me the rose (pink) Jawbone for Christmas, but I had to exchange it. Beware! Read reviews: A lot of people have fit problems with them. I loved the look, but it flapped around on the side of my head like a flag in a stiff wind. No, thanks.
