plantronics 645 is my favorite

I've had pretty good luck with this little guy, Samsung WEP200. It comes with a great case that is used to store and charge it. Sound quality seems pretty good and it is small so I dont feel like I have a huge contraption on my head while using it.

Samsung WEP-200 (http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-WEP200-Bluetooth-Headset-Kit/dp/B000GAO9T2/sr=8-1/qid=1167089015/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/102-6036614-6724136?ie=UTF8&s=wireless)

I love my motorola H700 (http://www.motorola.com/motoinfo/product/details.jsp?globalObjectId=111) charges with a standard USB cable so no other extra chargers to carry around, good range and battery life.

I have a Jabra BT150 (http://www.jabra.com/JabraCMS/NA/EN/MainMenu/Products/WirelessHeadsets/JabraBT150/JabraBT150) and the sound quality/battery life is great. However, I find it a little uncomfortable to wear for extended (1 hr+) periods of time.

Just read about this one the other day. It looks interesting and I am contemplating it... Check out the demo on the website. I think it's about 120 dollars, though... Walt Mossberg in the WSJ took a look at it last week.

Anyone else with the WEP200 have a problem with the volume not staying at the high setting? I hate having to adjust the volume up for every phone call.

I use the Jabra JX10 and I like it a lot. I have Bluetooth in my car and on my TomTom, but I use it a good bit with my computer and when I'm in the house. Very comfortable, great battery life.

hi,

i am using the motorola H5

How can any of you guys live without the B&O earset 2?

the plantronics 665 is great for people wearing large temple eyeglasses. not so good for those who do not like things poked in their ear.

I cannot get most motorola, nokia, jabra ear pieces close enough to hear them.

What ever happened to the Motorola H5 (http://reviews.cnet.com/Motorola_H5_Miniblue_Bluetooth_Headset/4505-1_7-31660605.html?autoplay=true,) -- it fit inside the ear and had some sort of internal microphone. It was announced and then disappeared. It sounded as if it would solve all of the above-mentioned problems.

I agree 100%. PLantronics 645 Is by far the best bluetooth earphone in the market. With all the features and accesories you can't ask for better.

I tried several of them and just can't get used to it so I guess I have wasted my money since I rarely have time to return item's

Is there a good one that is inexpensive- say around 20-30. Being in college, I spend lots of time on phone, but can't quite afford to attend college, fly, and utilize bluetooth...
