Any advice on brand/model of bluetooth to get? I have heard good things about plantronics. I want something that doesn't feel like it will fall off my ear and has good sound quality. And the cheaper the better!

Well in the bluetooth department you usually get what you pay for unfortunatly.
The best ones are the jawbone and blueant sets, the both are aroung $130
I had about 3 bad experiences with different plantronics headsets but that was years ago. Ever since I bought my first blueant I have never had problems

I personally think Plantronic and Motorola dont make good BT headsets- please know thats my personal opinion.
I think BlueAnt is great. I no longer use a JawBone and the BlueAnt has been sitting on a shelf as a backup ever since I got the Zivio Boom.

Just got 'Jabra' (google it). Have very little experience but it works great in my opinion. (approx. $70 - Canadian at The Source)
HS-655+ is my recommendation.
the best bluetooth head set foe music is jabra bt8040
IMOP. Jawbone for talking, Motorola HDS9 for music
CNET just did a review on this plantronics and says it's better than the blueant and the jawbone. I am going to try it out this weekend.
Plantronics Voyager PRO
I would find a store with a good exchange/return policy or you'll end up with a box full of BT headsets!
I'm using the Moto. H15 and looking at the new Plantronics Voyager Pro.
Zach, I say this all the time- the best BT headset is the one that works the best for you. CNET can post all the reviews in the world. Plantronics has NEVER worked well for any phone I've ever had; neither has Moto.
I think ones environment makes a huge difference as well. If BlueAnt provided one of my current headsets with longer than 5 hrs talk time, I'd use it all the time.
The one I'm using now provides 10 hrs which is right up my alley and most people don't realize I'm using a BT headset.
I too have been using the H15 and like it a lot except for wind noise. Supposedly, the new Voyager Pro is better in the wind. Did you ever check it out?
Thanks.
Ive been threw a few and i like my plantronics 925 the best so far
I have BlueAnt; I hate it. Never had/tried anything else though, so I don't know.
Rach, which one do you have & why do you hate it?
9Zi. I don't know. Guess I just can't get the ear piece to fit right so I can't hear well with it.
i recently bought a jabre bt8040
i am happy with it plus you can listen to music, pandora and it dosnt shut down when holstered with the bluetooth!!! :D
and i bought it off ebay for 26.00!!! new it was in bulk packaging but works great!!!!
I'm using a Moto H505, had an H500 before this, both have gotten the job done for me.
As most have pointed out, which ever model you decide on, buy it somewhere with a good exchange policy. Then swap swap swap till you find the one that works best for you.
I really like my Jabra BT-530
I love my tiny mini Moto H9, but for some peaple, it dont stay in place in the ear... My father get a Plantronic 510 voyager... Pretty big but work and stand very well on the ear... Great noise reduction tech.
