I happen to dislike BT headsets, I have had all the Jawbone ones. I now use the Bose Mie2s and love it.
Good quality and no hassle with charging etc, and I even use it for music sometimes.

I personally think wired headsets are overlooked. Never need to charge or pair, clearer sound, and less radiation-instilled headaches. Oh, and a decent one can be had for under $10.

I used to use BT and now use a wired (with a boom) and I love it! Just note that many people don't realize that and might be dissappointed if they get a wired earpiece.

You get what you pay for (usually).
You can also get noise cancelling headphones for $1, but they won't touch a pair of QC15s.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

You mean the Aliph Jawbone?

I wouldn't buy this kinda stuff on eBay, as there are a lot of refurbs sold as new, aftermarket, greymarket and other questionable listings of BT headsets there. BT headsets can oftentimes be had from reputable sellers for not much more than eBay prices.

this sounds like a great idea I currently use plantronics voyager pro very uncomfortable for me.
What do you do when you drive - keep just one airbud in?

thanks

I actually dont use it much when I drive but you can just put the bud with the mic in and leave the other one hanging.
