I have had a Sony Ericsson bluetooth headset hands free for a while. Daughter found it in the car and lost it. i now need a new one. Whilst it has always served me well its never that comfortable on journies over say 1.5 hours etc. i was thinking of either getting another or possibly one of the types that clips to sun visor and has microphone and speaker.

What do you use and is it any good?

I should say i dont have a huge budget to spend. Have seen the Parrot type ones but they may be a little expensive for me. Id love to buy a car with bluetooth system already fitted (borrowed a BMW with one as std a while back and it was great) but that is out of the question at the moment. Hence looking for an aftermarket type that is decent quality.


If the price is right id buy 2nd hand but dont like buying from ebay which is the usual place to look for them.


ETA - ideally looking for a device that will take calls from 2 phones - ie both paired to the device at the same time.

i've got a nexus one that clips to the visor. not actually used it yet, but my mums got one too. sound quality when she calls me with it is really good.

if you're feling flash, theres quite a few car stereos with bluetooth built in now, that will work somewhat like that BMW one. not sure on prices though

Do you want a Logitech in ear one? I've got one that I no longer use.

It's complete with the charger.

It's got a foam pad like an 80's walkman, rather than an ear plug so theres nay wax on it!!!

Yours FOC if you want it.

I like the price of yours Mike! is it bluetooth or wired?
Ive convinced myself that a clip on style one will probs be more suited to me but dont want to get one that isnt any better than trying to operate my phone (N96) through the loudspeaker function when im on the road.

New venture will probs provide me with a Blackberry as well so ill be after something that will take calls from 2 phones at the same time (ie blackberry and my N96) - if that is even possible with bluetooth! I know my Sony headset wouldnt which was a pain when running 2 mobiles at the same time.

I can just see me needing a headset for one phone and clip on style for the other!

This is the one I have

That looks quite good Mike. I would like to take you up on your kind offer if i may whilst i research the clip on types more.

Thanks,
Darren.

If you U2U me your address I'll pop it in the post. I'm not going to make the Mouse this month.

I had a few types over the years but now use a parrot 3100 it the best so far and have ne hesitation about recommending it!
