Yep, me too.
I've been looking for something like that but all I've seen so far are the $15 ones at WalMart and Zellers.

I'll bet those are really good.

Edit: Well, I ordered one. Should arrive sometime next week.

Well, I can be Mig of Borg now.
It arrived late yesterday and it works amazingly well! On my end it sounds almost better than the phone itself does. The few people I've talked to so far have said it's very clear, as if I'm not even using one.

A good buy IMO. Thanks, rockstarplumber!

Now.. a few more calls would be nice too.

Yea, this is one that I have had the longest, and have not stopped wearing. It is a great head set.

Yea, after seeing and being around RSP all week, I decided to get me one of them contraptions. That way when I walk past HIM and I am talking to myself, he will think that " I " , ( capital I ) am loonie also.

I talk with my hands a lot, and pace around. I look certifiable with a Bluetooth.

Hey! I took last friday off and went fishing.
Took my plantronics bluetoothe thingy off and set it aside in my truck. The weather here has been good, but by "good" I mean between 26° - 34°F.

This morning I franticly searched for my earpiece and realized that I'd left it out all weekend while I was away. Normally, if I leave my phone or camera in there even overnight, it's toast and has to charge for some time before I can use it.

After I located it, I turned it on only to realize that I'd left it on the whole time!!! It'll be dead for sure, I thought.

Nope! slung it over my ear and used it prolly 8 or 9 times today. Tonite I checked it and the battery says it's fully charged!

Good unit!

How well does that platronics stay on if you bend down or are under a sink?
My newest one is the jabra extreme, it stays on pretty tight no matter what position I'm in.

how well do they work anyway>>>

I got a samsung rugby phone that is hard on my ears....

what is a good one to get???

Plumber Jim · 03-09-2010, 11:15 PM

I got a plantronics this past week and so far i love it. doesn't hurt my ear like most do and i can hear people with it alot better.

Miguel · 03-09-2010, 11:37 PM

Same here, and today was the test of all tests to see how well it stays on your ear! Wiggling and shimmying around pipes and conduit 10' in the air! Lost my hat twice and the voyager once.
I can wear the thing all day long and usually forget it's there unless it beeps or someone points and makes some quip about "Miggy from borg".
Very clear incoming and outgoing.
