Bluetooth Thread (Cell Phones that is)

    While I see there is a few different bluetooth threads, I didn't see one that quite addressed the headsets.

    I guess I am just looking to see who else out there uses them and what they use and what they think of what they have.

    I have the FoneGear MiniBlue (linkage)
    Generally found for about $50 USD and generally good reviews.

    We adopted our Miniblu when we found it one night after the bar closed (we were hanging out with the owners) and brought it home. Found out that my UT Starcom Charger fit it, but I didn't have a phone I could mate it with. Finally got my upgrade for my Boost service and got an i335 with BlueTooth.

    Not having purchased the MiniBlu, I had no idea what to do, so I hopped online and snatched up the manual for it. Having had it in service now for about 4 weeks, I have to admit, I am very happy with the quality of this unit. It gives consistent clear sound, even when I leave the phone on the table on the other side of the room, and sounds just as clear as the phone itself to the other person on the line. For a 'budget' ear piece, i would give it a 4/5 only for occasional static (possibly due to how we obtained it... off the bar floor ;))

    So, who has what??

    I dont do the BT headsets, makes folk look like a Borg, but do have BT built into the car if I need hands free, of my BT is Blue and Me

    Its ok, has its uses in the car, but I tend to be old school out and about and stick phone to ear.

    Had to laugh the other week when I was at traffic lights and noticed a driver and passenger both with BT headsets, OK I get the driver having this but the passenger!!!!

    Man! Bluetooth is awesome! My new MP3 player has Bluetooth. I can transfer files with it, and use it as a cell phone when my phone is connected. Also, I can use a bluetooth headset to listen to music with it.
