Very good product but not durable
I was very happy with the bluespoon AX2 performance and ergonomics but was disappointed with its durability.The AX2 is incredibly small, light, and comfortable to wear. The sound quality is very good and the battery life is the same or better compared with other headsets. The maximum volume is considerably higher than the Motorola HS850 and Scala headsets I've used.This product has two primary shortcomings: Wind noise and durability. I've used several bluetooth headsets and the AX2 is the first one that ever broke from normal use. The charging interface eventually wore-out, and I had to wiggle the AC adapter and keep pressure on it to establish a good connection after only 4 months of use. The buttons also became loose over time and lost some sensitivity, and the battery began to lose its ability to maintain a charge after 4-5 months (although this may have been related to the charging port problems).Outdoors under light winds, listeners often complained that they could hear A LOT of noise. I had considerably more wind noise problems with this head-set than I had with the Moto HS850 and Scala models.I'm tempted to buy another one because it was so small and comfortable... | 1positive

Good bluetooth
It works great! The only issue for me is that the volume cannot go up very high. This is my first bluetooth, so I can't compare it with others. Maybe all bluetooths have a pretty low maximum volume. Reception and battery life are great! | 1positive

One of the best hard cases for a Palm Treo
I bought this case for my Palm Treo 700w when we went on an extended vacation. It ended up being the case of choice for me. This case protects wonderfully and is a perfect fit for the 700. It slips on and off your belt without trouble yet I never had it slip off accidentally.This didn't matter to me but... if you want to slip your Palm in and out of the case while still on your belt, it is a bit cumbersome to flip open a hinged case while still on your belt. Some folks won't like that. I always took it off and put it back on when calling and, for me, that worked perfectly. | 1positive

LOVE this phone
I bought this phone brand new in March and I couldn't be happier. I don't have any dropped calls, which isn't a phone issue anyway, that would be a service issue. However, like I said no dropped calls, I have about 200 songs in it now, the battery life is great, too.I listen to my music on this phone for literally hours at a time and still have sufficient battery for talking and games or TV, or texts,or whatever. This is the most $$ I ever spent on a cell phone and I am ecstatic.The camera takes fabulous pictures, and you can record up to 2 hours on the video, which is awesome! I love the flash with the camera, I took pictures by the beach at night with minimal light and the flash was enough to get a picture.I can't say enough about this phone!! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it. I have been with Sprint for about 6 years, this is about my 5th phone because I am so fickle and couldn't find one just right, well, this one will be in my hands for a LOOOOOONG time. | 1positive

A usability review of SE T610
Good job SonyEricsson - T610 is a well thought upgrade to T68i.So about a year ago I wrote a review about Samsung S100 and Sony T68i. I opted for T68i for all the features it had to offer. You bet T68i was SLOW! But 610 is much faster and slick! For all those who have had T68i, you will love T610 and for those who are new to the Sony Ericsson world here is a detailed review for you.I'll speak more from a usability point of view rather than feature listing - you can find features on various websites.Let's start with Pros:- Its small, light and easy to carry (even in your shirt pocket)- Keys well lit / well spaced (important for small phones)- Large screen and pretty clear (some people complain about reading under direct sunlight - its not convenient under sun but is usable)- With phones entering the PDA/Camera/MP3 player market and having too many features, SE has done a good job of organizing all its features under 12 icons. (Pictures & Sounds and Profiles have overlaps and could be handled better)- T610 introduced a back button which can literally take you back to any previous screen!- Bluetooth / Infrared makes life easier - easy integration with your windows networking and MS outlook- Very useful "options/more" button: so imagine having the options you need at every point available at the press of a button. Very good planning as phones become more complicated and have only 16-18 keys for user input!- Glad they swapped the button for space and punctuations while writing messages from T68i. Makes them in agreement with the other mobile manufacturers.- Reception / battery : "just acceptable" but not top of the line.- Audio pretty clear- Polyphonic ring tones can be unheard till few seconds- Pretty clear indication of new msg / bluetooth / IR / missed calls / battery / signal : all placed in one line on the top of the screen (much better design than previous sonys / nokias / samsungs / etc.)- pretty easy to use msging (text is more intuitive then picture msging)- can delete/edit the words that you add in T9 msg writing mode- cool concept of default number for every user- great concept of unsaved numbers list.Ok now for the cons:- Firmware issues : a big one that many people are not aware of. Firmware is the software running on your little phone. It is a HUGE task to get a firmware upgrade. The one that comes originally from t-mobile is some ancient build (I bought my T610 few weeks ago and I have R1S and R6C is already out, 6 revisions behind !!). Newer firmware fixes problems and sometimes adds more features/options. My previous experience with T68i was that with firmware upgrade the reception improved by a significant factor and other features added were helpful. I am wondering how to get a firmware upgrade for my T610 now.- No way to keep a track of time of multiple missed calls from same number.- 2MB is definitely small for a phone with camera and java game- The t-zones-wap button on the side is not the coolest idea. Could have used that button for better purpose (maybe bookmarks, the current style forces u to go to tzones website)- Like many other pointed out : screen gets dirty very easily and needs constant wiping.- the voice-notes is not a very useful feature. it forces u to send it via MMS and not just save it.- Like T68i : if you want to change one speed dial, you have to copy your entire phonebook AGAIN to your sim card - very poor design- given how much improvement they made after T68i - camera picture size should have been 640x480 and minimal flash should have been included !- Some people are not happy about a single call list for outgoing/incoming/missed. Well thats the way SE likes it.- FINALLY, phones are evolving into PDAs: it has important information such as your contacts, messages, pictures. It needs to be locked - password protection on messages/picture or maybe the overall phone. My cordless sized old sprint sanyo used to have that !!To wrap up, I would be very satisfied with this phone if the reception was a tad better and the battery lasted a bit longer. I hope the firmware rev would do it (like it did to my T68i) | 1positive

Cheep and good at what it does.
Cheep and good at what it does.I am using this with a T mobile SDA and it paired flawlessly. I have heard many things about Bluetooth and its inability to have a signal through walls but I have lost this phone because I was using the Scala all the time! I had to call some one (I use the voice dial feature) to call me back! (A little hard to explain that one).Haven't got the locater function to work yet.Went two days of constant on/off use without charging! Plus the blinking blue light can be shut on or off anytime you like. This is huge. I think the star-trek look is slow to be accepted (my roommate has promised to rib the heck out of me if I wear it all the time) And I agree with him. Wearing a blue-blinking-silver-plastic thing on your head all the time just looks stupid.But I cannot deny the ease of use of this thing. To make, answer calls by just touching your Scala button Is awesome.BUT, if you leave it on in your pocket, it will just start calling peaple. | 1positive

Z22 Case
This case is great. Well worth the price. Holds the Z22 very snug, with holes for the battery charger, USB port, screen, keypad etc. Real leather and very durable. It makes my Palm Z22 look classy and professional. | 1positive

Very Disappointing
I've had this phone for 5 months now and it just keeps getting worse. I could deal with the lousy speakers and the odd choice of not allowing full menu options when the clamshell is closed, but the biggest weakness is actually the design. The directional pad on the outer shell is directly behind the center of the inner LCD screen.As a result, this phone has broken on me twice in the last five months. The inner LCD screen (the large one) cracks if there is too much pressure on the directional pad of the outer shell. Just leaving it in a pocket of a jacket that gets jostled or pressing the "OK" button particularly hard can break the inner LCD. Its amazing more people haven't complained about this.Especially since in order to get it fixed, you are charged at least $50, if not more by Verizon, and they couldn't care less about the aggravation. Their response is to ask if you will get insurance on the phone, or buy the hard leather sleeve for it. I couldn't figure out why anyone would want to buy a leather case that covers the outer screen. Aren't you supposed to use that outer screen for something, like, ummm, to see who's calling, or to find your contacts or set up your bluetooth or send pictures...?I guess not, apparently, the purpose of the outer screen is to look cool as you have to yank an even bulkier phone out of your pocket, then pray you can slide this hideous black leather sleeve off of it before the person calling you has hung up.It's just stupid and I wish I realized it before I wasted over $350 dollars on this junk.I will never buy a LG phone again. And as soon as my plan is up with Verizon, they will never see another dime either. | 0negative

Cute Phone, Horrible Reception
I've had this phone for nearly a year now. At first I was very excited because this was my frist flip phone. My previous Samsung phone had excellent reception, so I figured this would be the same. It's cute, small, and has many nice features on it. Then I began noticing how many calls it was dropping and the horrible reception. I have 2 friends with the same phone and all have the same issue.Yesterday I was talking with one of my friends who has the same phone, and within a 10 minute conversation the call was dropped 4 times! After dealing with this phone for so long, I am fed up. I just got my tax return and I'm going to get a new one today! | 0negative

Happy with it. Be very carefull about fake and cheap H700 or H500
I never used bluetooth set before, but I am happy with H700 that I purchased.Be very carefull about buying from E-bay. If it is too cheap, it could be a fake one. There are lots of fake motorola H500 and H700 sets in Ebay. Do your google search 'fake motorola bluetooth h700' You will find lots of complaints from the people who bought a fake set. It also tells you how to tell the difference. I almost returned my H700 I got from Costco, when I first found out that it's much cheaper on ebay. Then I noticed that most of those sets under $30 on ebay are not real ones.I decided to keep mine and am very happy with it. What I know is, fake ones perform so bad (static noise, short range, etc) that you cannot even use it. I am wondering about those people who left one or two star ratings here. Where did they buy their unit ? Do they know that they might have a fake one ? Flip the plastic earhook the other way . If you don't find word "MOTOROLA " , no serial number or a little check mark symbol in the back (just below the speaker), it's a fake one !! | 1positive

Beware of LG Phones
I have owned two LG phones including the VX7000 and I had problems with both phones powering down for no reason. I have friends that also own LG phones and they have had the same problem. Verizon has provided me with a new VX7000 however I lost all of my downloads. I had similar problems with an early version of the VX7000 LG phone too. It would powerdown if you laid it down facing up. I had to always have it laying on its side to prevent it from turning off. Overall, I thought that this phone provided good features for the money. This review is just to make you aware of the phone turning off without reason. If you experience this problem, return it immediately to get a new one because it can not be fixed and the frequency of the powering off will increase as the phone ages. | 0negative

My second one, still the best
I purchased a Voyager 510 a couple of years ago and paid $99.99 for it (Before I found Amazon). and I just loved it. Then being stupid I read all the hype about the Jawbone and when I broke my Voyager, I decided to get the Jawbone. What a HUGE mistake!.. The Jawbone is junk. My second Voyager is just as wonderful as the first, I've already walked around in the wind, while talking to my wife, and she could hear me perfectly and couldn't hear the wind. It's the best product on the market. And of course Amazon got it hear so quick I didn't even have time to track my package!... Thanks Amazon for selling such a great product. | 1positive

May have all the features, but is it worth it
This phone has all the features you could think of, internet, video, audio recorders, camera, etc. The camera may be handy when you have nothing else, but the resolution is horid and its almost useless. I dont ever really get to use any of the features. I really like the speaker phone! It is so bulky everyone always gives me wierd looks because they cant figure out if it is a phone or palm pilot. The material it is made out of seems real flimsy. It's difficult to quickly text mail with the circled key pad. The ring tones are hardly audible. Sometimes it goes online on its own and I get charged. Nokias are easy to navigate, but overall the phone just has too much useless stuff and is too big. | 0negative

Started out great
This adapter was working great. I was pleased with the sound and ease of use. However about a month ago the left channel will only work (and that's sometimes) if I adjust the cord that connects the IPOD just right. I have to keep playing with it and moving it around and then the channel will cut out and I have to play with it over and over. Now I'm trying to find a replacement. I'm afraid to try another one of these. It started out so well and now I'm so disappointed.Now all of a sudden I'm getting sudden tape reversal- sometimes every 2 minutes. I'm still looking for a replacement. | 0negative

Treo 650
I have now had the Palm One Treo 650 in use for 1 full week. It is easy to use and wonderfully designed. Sprint's 1xRTT PCS vision data network is much too slow and does not allow the Treo user to take full advantage of its possibilities. I have used it frequently for email, but am quite frustrated at the speed of web downloads. I am reminded of 1994 dial up speeds of 9.6kbps.. dreadful! Otherwise, the blazer browser is fully capable of downloading an entire webpage as displayed on any copmuter based web browser.Battery life is exceptional. I have used for complete day, 1.5 hours of phone calls, web browsing, email access and still 51% battery charge come evening.Palm should have included more memory than the 32meg's (23 available) Some programs need to run on system and can not be run of additional (optional expansion card)System reboots itself occasionally, (still attemtping to isolate that problem)Perfect blend of PDA/Telephone | 1positive

Great case, terrible clip
This case fits like a glove, slides on and off the phone easily, and gives uninhibited access to every button and port. The back has a U shaped slit containing elastic cloth that lets the case expand to accomodates an extended life battery. It is very attractive and provides perfect protection from keys and coins if you carry the phone in a pocket or a purse.The belt clip is the worst I've ever used though. It is so stiff that it is hard to put on, and once attached it grips so hard it can't be moved. Unless your belt is exceptionally thin, you won't be sliding this clip forward or back to accomodate a seat belt or chair arm.The worst problem is the thickness of the clip - the phone sticks out so far it gets in the way and catches on things. Because of the elastic venting the phone flops around if you jump or move abruptly. Don't even think about using this clip while exercising.The materials and workmanship are excellent. This is the best fitting clam shell case available for the T720/21/22. If you don't need a belt clip I recommend it unreservedly. | 1positive

Not as comfortable as expected
I intentionally wanted a circumaural bluetooth headset with mic for the comfort of the circumaural design. The padding on these is just a little shy of being comfortable. After an hour or so, my ears are tired of being pressed on. The area for the ear is a tad on the small side as well. I don't have this problem with other circumaural headphones.There are very few circumaural bluetooth headsets with a mic on the market. Motorola makes one, but I didn't find more options. | 1positive

This cover is terrible. It looks awful in person (very cheap construction) and doesn't fit the phone well. It is so tight that it frequently pushes all of the buttons (especially the ones on the side) and prevents the phone from closing. | 0negative

Don't buy this phone.....
Not to repeat the shortcomings already mentioned by other reviewers, which I experienced first hand I will share my experience. I spent hours setting up this phone, downloading ring tones, customizing call groups and speed dials. This was this past Thurs. and Friday. When I turned on my phone Sat. to make a call all of my contacts, which had been saved to the phone memory just vanished. Contacts were still on SIM card. It was just all my speed dials and call group contacts were gone from the Phone memory. Where they had to be transferred to be able to use those features. Don't know what happened and at this point I don't care. In fact, before I returned it this morning I set up a few numbers for distinctive rings and speed dial. Guess what! All gone again. Needless to say I would stay away from this phone. If I could rate it ZERO I would. | 0negative

sleek and cool but completely impractical and faulty
i jumped on the chocolate bandwagon early, before adequate review were available. big mistake. the phone is aesthetically pleasing and the feel is solid. however, its practically deserves a grade of "F". i can't dial any of my numbers! the touch sensor pad either 1) goes haywire and starts pressing itself a million times per second, or 2) doesn't want to be pressed at all. i've set the sensor level at different levels but makes no difference. also, the buttons are so tiny that i can't access my voicemail w/o dialing the wrong #s... and my fingers are tiny.i am so frustrated and stressed out b/c i can't use any basic functions. the makers were thinking of cool features and ignoring the basics. | 0negative

Motorola H700 + Motorola RAZR V3C
I recieved this headset, my first, with a bit of dout. I have read all of the reviews and most of motorola's claims seem to be correct in that this is the best bluetooth headset that they have produced so far. Works extremely well with my phone, and noone that I have talked to has even suspected me of not actually having the phone to my ear. A very highly reccomended product. | 1positive

The Low Down
Alright, Here is the 411 on this phone and service.PHONE- Very good. Loud Speakerphone, cool external display, camera, and color. Very good phone for the price ($150.00)SERIVICE- Where do I start? TMobile is the worst service in the world. I have experimented with AT&T, Cingular, TMobile, Sprint, Verizon, and Nextel. TMobile is by far the worst. If they had this phone with Cingular or ATT, I would take it in a minute. Good Phone, Crappy company. In my experimentation, here is what I found...ATT- 4/5Nextel- 4/5 (extra 2.00 for caller id + voicemail)Verizon- 5/5 (EXPENSIVE THOUGH!)Cingular- 3/5 okay, not the greatestSprint- 5/5 (Good service, good phones, good deals)TMobile- 0/5 NEVER AGAIN.

Value for Money
My original charger broke down after almost 3 years and hence I had to buy this one.Delivery was very quick, I think I ordered on Sunday and I received it on Wednesday or Thursday.Only problem I am noticing is that my phone keeps beeping intermittently while charging using this charger. Its the sound you get when you connect/disconnect the charger. However it is incosistent. Despite this sound, it seems to be charging.For $2.99 (including shipping), I cant expect anything more. | 1positive

Heck No....
I bought this for my HTC EVO and was loving it at first....then the paint started chipping off the pen (its gold colored underneath)and the tip used to press your icons on the phone burst. It's rubber on the end. I had to hit letters 3 or 4 times before it would sense the pen. Take this back to the drawing board Box Wave. The cord is too short as well....I'm tired of removing the pen from the phone to text. I easily misplaced it a dozen times due to this. Redesign it or call me....I'll gladly assist. You should pay me my money back for not suing you for a crappy product.... | 0negative

Best Case Out There
The previous review almost prevented me from buying this product, however I find this case to be more than adequate.Yes the "platinum" plastic is not too great, but it does the job of protecting the phone( it does 'scratch' but better the case gets scratched than the phone). The w810i is a fingerprint magnet and this case serves well to keep mine clean and protected.You can take pictures with the case still on, as well as do pretty much anything else (charge, play music on Headphones, etc.). The buttons are a little hard to press because the openings are surrounded by leather, but I can still manage to hit them. The belt clip is kind of bulky, but it is easy to remove and replace when needed.The deciding factor that made me get this case is that it is ALL BLACK (can not tell from the pictures but it is), almost every other leather fitted case has some sort of striping or coloring that makes it look in my opinion unprofessional. I think this case is one of the best out there for the price. In terms of the cost, this case flat out beats the Krusell cases.This case is worth buying, you will be thanking yourself when your buddies phones are all smudgy and yours looks sleek. | 1positive

Great While It Lasted
I was excited when I first saw this item on Amazon and was pleased by the price. I wind up my headsets and store them in a very small pocket in my fanny pack. All that bending wasn't good for them and eventually the wires frayed. So the idea of having one that wound up and fit very neatly into the pocket was great. I could overlook the fact that the microphone was above my ear (I'd had a Jabra before that had that feature...annoying but worh dealing with.I am now VERY disappointed because after a little over one month since I bought it, the microphone no longer works--apparently there's a short in the wiring. I can hear fine, but can no longer be heard. Now that I've read a few of the more recent reviews (including the May review I just read) I see that this is a common flaw. No wonder they are now selling for $13 bucks!So for me the search continues for a high quality, compact, durable headset. Save your $13 (unless you plan to spend $156 and get a year's supply!) | 0negative

Still going strong 2 years later
I bought this item so that I could use our companies VoIP system. The headset and USB dongle worked very well and also allowed me to switch between the VoIP system and my cell phone (Palm Centro).I also tried to use this with my iPhone 4, but the sound quality is not as good. I don't attribute this to the headset though. | 1positive

One BUTTON short of perfection.
Amazon review of this item is wrong. It DOES NOT have a button that assists with making calls. Thing ONLY has a MUTE button. I was tricked. Anyhow, I still love it more than the headset I bought from sprint that keeps falling out of my ear. This headset is super comfy. | 1positive

Should have waited...
Amazon should have told me that this smart phone would become obsolete within weeks. It was replaced by the HTC "Tilt", which runs Windows Mobile 6 and had a lot more memory.The 8525 running Windows Mobile 5 is unstable and undependable. In addition, the keyboard and other buttons must not have undergone usability testing with a significant sample of users.- Unstable: I've had to re-boot the device at least once a day, sometimes more. It locks up and won't respond to anything you try to do.- Undependable: On at least 6 occasions during the 2 months I've owned it, I have been unable to answer incoming calls. I can see the caller ID, but regardless of what button you push, it won't answer.- Keyboard and other buttons:-- Keyboard: What were they thinking when they decided to put the tilde ("~") on the main keyboard, but make you go to the symbol set (4 keystrokes) to be able to enter a dollar sign, or double quotes?-- Button placement: What percentage of the user community uses "push to talk" (PTT)? Yet there is a dedicated button on the side of the device that activates PTT. And Windows Mobile's settings (Settings | Personal [tab] | Buttons) will not allow you to either disable or reassign it. As a result, several times per day, I have to respond to the message, "PTT charges will apply. Do you wish to initialize PTT?" when I accidentally touch that button instead of the "OK" button (located 1/8" away).I don't know if the HTC Tilt is much better, but I've spoken to somebody who has had both and he is happier with the Tilt, probably due to the increase in memory.Amazon and AT&T; refused let me upgrade to the Tilt when I missed the 30-day return window by a few days, even though they obviously knew that this smart phone would become obsolete when they sold it to me. I'm very disappointed. | 0negative

Absolute crap.
These things are junk. In the package, seemed okay. Get them out, you're in for a surprise. The "ear hooks" are a pain in the ass to get adjusted over the ear. I have no clue how they actually sound, and have no intentions of finding out. Don't care. Body Glove makes things out of rubbery flexible stuff, usually. These hooks are more of a plastic, like the ends of eyeglasses. Because of that, you have to fiddle around and get things Just Right, or they're not gonna stay put. And the hooks are supposed to be removable, so you can swap colors, if you're a fashionista. Don't ask me how to get them off. (or I would've kept them) And don't look for them on [...], because apparently, Body Glove doesn't know they manufacture this product. It doesn't exist on their website.I figured they'd make a good solid product for athletic purposes, so that would wear well for my normal usage. I'm taking them back, and gonna get a set of ANYTHING else, like skullcandy or whatever. I'm not a real audiophile, so as long as they play, I'll be happy. But if I can't get the damn things on my head 1-2-3, they obviously aren't worth squat. (to me).These were supposed to be a simple replacement of my factory Sony set, from a Walkman MP3 player. Nothing special. (although, the Sony's WERE special, the sound was decent, and the whole package lasted over two years) If I was gonna hook to my phone, I'd use Bluetooth. This is just an extra kit, for when I don't want my smartphone getting exposed to the wear and tear of hiking and biking, beach and dirty rugged stuff.I mainly came here for a review explaining how to get the earhooks off. There are a variety of models, 2.5 and 3.5, with and w/o phone mic and pause button. So, regardless of those specs, the ear pieces are the same. I wouldn't keep them if they were free, and I certainly wouldn't buy them knowing what I now know. And they're a joke, so back they go. I'm glad I kept the receipt.I should've known better when I couldn't find the tech specs on the package, regarding the Db and freq output, and all that gibberish. I now realize the only thing Body Glove was selling was its brand logo, and the mechanical and technical aspects of its product were considered irrelevant by the manufacturer. | 0negative

Works with 8130 Perl
Giving it 4 stars just because UPS took forever to get this delivered to me and I needed it ASAP because my dog chewed my other one. Other then that it works just perfect. Works with my 8130 Perl... was a bit afraid since it didn't state it. | 1positive

It's big, but works well.
This headset seems good, but it's the only one i've owned. One issue is that it's pretty large on your ear, and you definitely don't look as sleek and stylish as those other people with small bluetooths. I'm guessing it probably lasts longer though b/c of it's size (bigger battery?), but haven't done any tests to figure that out. Aside from cosmetic issues, it seems to work really well and I have no problem hearing or with others hearing me. | 1positive

Beware: this only works for phones, and only certain phones.
Maybe i'm just dumb, but i thought this radio was just a regular clip-on radio, but actually you have to have a certain kind of Sony Ericcson phone to clip it into. It doesn't work with every Sony Ericcson phone tho, so make sure you look at the models it supports. I never got to use it, so I dont know how it works. | 1positive

Awesome Phone!
It is an excellent phone and it has millions of pros. There is easy accessing to multiple features and it comes with tons of memory. The opportunities with the phone are endless. It also works great with the bluetooth wireless system. There is however one con.... the camera button is located on the side of the phone and many times I have accidently pushed it and it takes a snapshot of something random. Then I must go back and delete it. But besides this everything about the phone is fantastic. Including the ability to change the faceplate to whatever color you want. I always thought that having a NOKIA non-flip phone would be the only way to get cool faceplates, but this phone has changeable faceplates in many colors and designs. | 1positive

Piece of crap
Don't buy this product! It will not work for a KRZR K1M. They'll ship you some old version (3.0.1) of mobile Phone Tools which can't be upgraded and is totally worthless, you'll also get some very poor quality cables with it. I'm glad I only wasted a few dollars on this piece of crap. | 0negative

PIECE OF ****!
I had my phone for about 6 months, no problems. then it just started to shut itself down whenever it felt like! Motorola replaced with no problem, the new one, one wekk later- same thing! How good is a cell phone when it shuts itself off 10-15 times a day! Pain in the ###!Now I have to send this one back, and Motorola will not allow me to exchange for a different phone!DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE! | 0negative

I miss my Nokia!
I recently bought the v220 when when I renewed my contract because I thought I wanted a cute little flip-phone, but I am sorely missing my old, standard Nokia. The reception isn't too bad but I've found the v220's usability and functionality to be horrible and its user manual to be worse. It doesn't do a lot of basic things my old Nokia did and what it does do takes too many steps to get to. I pretty much hated it from minute one, but decided to give it some more time to see if I got used to it. But now, to the point:Pros:-multiple alarms-mp3 ringtones-multimedia messaging-customizable shortcuts and home keys-standard data portCons:-VERY confusing for a first-time user; original setup is not logical-awful manual; missing some instructions and many it has are just plain wrong-menus upon menus upon menus-causes MAJOR interference with speakers (mine does so with any speakers I'm around, and not just before and during calls, but on almost an hourly basis)-outside buttons are too easy to push, causing problems like changed ring type and erasure of missed calls notice (keyslock does not help, as it just displays "enter unlock code" and you don't get a missed calls display at all)-occasionally changes assigned ringtones to "none" (funny joke, Motorola), and so calls from that person are missed-small screen/hard to read (visibility goes to almost zero in sunlight)-vibrate option is not very powerful-speakerphone is awful-volume in general is low (rings, speaker, everything)-comes with no good rings-very low amount of memory-I'm sure there are more, as I find something new to complain about every day, but everything else escapes me for nowEdit: I was finally able to return my v220 and I got a Sony Ericsson z500a instead, which I love. | 0negative

I have been using this product for about 2 months. This product is amazing with good phone reception and good connection with the phone. During windy climate, the reception is still good. Overall this is an excellent product and I had a very good transaction as usual with Amazon.com | 1positive

Bad Purchase
Even though the item was really cheap, it does not fit my phone as advertised. It is too big (too long) and my phone slops around in it. If the top get pushed open, the phone can fall out, like when you sit for hours on an airplane. Go to the store any buy one so you know it fits. One size fits all means that it does not fit any very well. | 0negative

klutzy, uncooperative phone
I bought into all the really cool ads on tv and the promised features. I researched and checked all my lists and ordered it for $149.99 with service. And YES!! it looks great! Then it starts. I call a bank to get a balance and need to put in all 16 digits of a card number. Maybe I'll get them all in and maybe I won't. Only the Chocolate knows for sure. It hiccups in the middle of my numbers and sends me to the contact menu. Very helpful. Getting out of the contact menu is no easy feat either.If you are your voicemail and try to delete or keep messages, good luck. Onve you have entered one of the numbers, you go to the contact list again.Once in awhile, the phone takes one to a different screen - I don't know the rhyme or reason. Very frustrating, loss of time, just plain a pain. If you have time, trade it in. I got a Razr which is approximately 1000 times better and easier to use. If you haven't bought it, don't.gppd ;icl | 0negative

Great device and a great price!
I have purchased 8 of this headset at this time. I have given them to many of my staff members to increase the safefy of driving and talking as we do. I have also given them as gifts to friends and loved ones. It works very well. It is loud enough to overcome noicey enviroments and has good noice canceling so the folks on the other end can hear you clearly. I tried four other headsets before falling in love with this one. Great product and AMAZON has a great price at $43.00 with freight.Try it I think you will be glad you did. | 1positive

Volume too low.
After having this for some time, I find its volume control is horrible. I can't change the rating that I gave it earlier, but I would now rate it a 2 star. The volume is way too low when driving on the highway. The plastic deals that hold it onto your ear break within a few weeks and cost a lot to replace. I would not purchase this again, although it is my first and only unit that I've used. | 1positive

No Software available!!! Waste of money!
I thought that these were actual cases by the pictures given under product. They turned out to be printable labels with no software available to use with them.

Great headset
I've tried other bluetooth headsets and the biggest problem I've had is not being able to hear others from my car with all the road noise. The Plantronics 665 is great. In fact I actually had to turn down the volume a bit. I also noticed it connects instantly to the phone where my old Motorolla had a slight delay. I would have given this 5 stars except a lot of background noise is picked up by those on the other end of the line. Overall a very clean design. Other than the road noise, people on the other end didn't know I was using a wireless headset. Nice small design fit my ear well. The DC charging station/dock for the car is great. Charges as well from your PC USB. I'm using this with my Palm Treo 755p. | 1positive

Don't Use Virgin Mobile
I bought a Virgin Mobile phone for emergencies, the coverage is OK, not fantastic. However after little more than a year of use, I turn it on one day and it connects itself to VM and announces it is 'updating' itself. After the update is complete, I can no longer text message. I call technical support, they say 'we can't fix it, and your out of warranty, you need to buy a new phone'.Thought it was a fluke and I got someone stupid, so I called them back, same reply 'you need to buy a new phone'.Stay away from Virgin Mobile, it's nothing but an expensive con trick. | 0negative

Doesn't fit
The body glove doesn't actually fit an L6. In fact, unless you alter it, it presses the side buttons in and makes the phone unusable while it's on it. Furthermore, the hole for the round key is too low. Also, be aware that there is a clip on the back that is not shown in the picture and that "impact" doesn't necessarily mean that the case will protect against any kind of actual impact. | 0negative

Good case
I'm very happy with this case. I've read some other reviews about poor fit but mine fits perfectly. It is made of a flexible vinyl/rubber(not a hard case), not like those silicone ones that stick in your pocket and attract lint. Also its slim enough to fit into my alarm clock docking station without removing the case. At $19 it's probably a bit over priced but other than that I have no complaints. Only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is the price. | 1positive

Not worth the style
I have had this phone for 1.5 yrs. I am on my second phone because I thought there was a problem with the first one, but I soon realized with the second one, its just the phone. The phone is slow to keep up with you, you can dial a number and instead of the numbers showing up on the screen instantly, you have to wait for it to catch up with you. When you open the flip, the screen is black for a couple of seconds. I am not happy with the phone anymore, I thought it was soo great...small & cute....NOT worth it. Can't wait to get a different phone(might go back to Nokia)!! | 0negative

Great case for the Katana DLX
This review is for the small Timbuk2 case. I love this case! The pink color is bright and doesn't match anything but my phone is pink and it doesn't disappear if placed around other things! There are neutral colors for those that prefer something not so obvious. I was worried about the velcro feature but everything seems to attach securely. The phone fits in just right. So many cases are too large. I can charge my phone at home or in the car with leaving it in the case. I have attached the case both to purse straps and a shoulder cord to a wallet. I can always hear the phone now and it is readily available for use. For the first time ever I have started using the alarm feature. It is loud enough through the case. Now I don't have to keep checking my watch in order to be on time to take/pickup my grandchildren from school even if I am out shopping. There is no thin strap to wear down nor clasp that unfastens. I really enjoy using it. | 1positive

Great phone, no complaints
I've had this phone for several months now, and it has incredible battery life, even with running Bluetooth almost constantly both my laptop and the Jabra hands free unit. The unit is also solid, as I can say I have dropped it a couple of times on a hard floor and have had little more than a scuff on the case. I am very impressed with the GSM reception despite the lack of an external antenna. The screen is bright and easy to read and this is a great phone for connectivity with a laptop and to the internet. Audio quality is awesome too. I have no complaint for this phone, and at the price, it really can't be beat. | 1positive

Cheap!
I bought this so that I could have the radio while I do some yardwork, etc. and still have my phone with me without another bulky item on my belt. I got this and tried to figure out what it was!! It was an odd colored (didn't match the phone at all) and cheaply made radio with an on/off, scan, and volume switch on a plastic box half the size if the phone. You have no idea what station you are listening to because there is no readout or dial, just a scan switch to get you to the next station. The reception is terrible, and the sound quality is inferior to a ... walkman. The radio easily falls off the phone when bumped and It doesn't fit onto the phone when you have the phone in a holster or carrying case so you have to put it in your pocket... | 0negative

Fell apart in 4 months
I got this bluetooth headset based on reviews and the price, but found I had to install VolumeCare software to up the volume. Then it worked OK for about four months but recently the little round speaker broke off just from being in a shirt pocket and tangling with a ballpoint pen! I soldered and glued the speaker back into position and it works in a rather tinny way now, but I will have to replace this unit. I now feel the adage holds true: you get what you pay for! | 0negative

I got my Bluetooth about 3 months ago and use it daily. It's a great product, and I don't usually have any difficulty with volume.

It's a normal weak user interface Motorola phone
I almost totally hate it. I think I'll be finding a way to go back to using my much better, old Nokia 6800. As usual, it's a wierd, unintuitive, takes time figure out and work around its bugs and wierdness, Motorola phone. It is better than past Moto phones, though.The only thing this one has over the Nokia 6800 is better voice quality, which may be more about the old ATT service than the phone.Battery life & charging: though mine is doing semi-okay in that department, my old Nokia is 10 times better.My biggest complaint with this phone is the way it stores and searches for contacts. A Nokia phone can handle 200 as easily as 15. With a Moto, the more you have, the more cumbersome it is to use. Say you have a dozen or so contacts that start with "M", all it can do is go to the start of the M's and then scroll very slowly to the one you want.Want back up your contacts to the SIM card (like you would on a Nokia? Oops, now you have multiple entries showing for each contact. You have two choices, delete the ones on the SIM individially (which means many, many, delete key sequences), or buy the software to do it from your PC.Want to back up your phone contacts to your PC? Upload an application? You have to BUY software to do that. Nokia provides it free for their phones.So yep, if you have a serious use for this phone, order the software to manage the thing from your PC now.By the way, the Software w/Bluetooth from MobileAction is working okay for backing up/editing the phonebook. Their Bluetooth driver is still something to be desired, though.Something you need to do right away is lock out the web button which is right next to the talk button. You'll quickly figure out why.Hey Motorola, you taking notes? You've been competing with Nokia how long now? You complain about Nokia's market share? You really need start getting away from doing things by committees filled with people that don't have a need for a cell phone other than to call their kids. | 0negative

Great concept, poor execution
I've only had this Toshiba 2032SP from Sprint for a few days now, and I'm really regretting it already. It is a rather poor cell phone (speakerphone or wired mic/earbud ONLY - no option for holding the phone to one's ear), and a so-so PDA. The dim, powerhungry screen is shameful. The Toshiba 2032SP won't last more than about 36 hours on a full charge of this new battery. Horrible performance from a cell phone (and don't forget, this is a cell phone). The TFT screen is dim and fuzzy even at it's most intense brightness setting. At it's lowest, power-saver friendly setting it is so dim and illegible as to cause headaches. Despite the bulk, a full-featured PDA (iPAQ anyone?) and a well engineered cell phone (nearly any Motorola anyone?) are a far better option than this paperweight. | 0negative

If this is the best, the others must be REALLY BAD!
My ears must be different than most others. This thing would not stay in my ear even when using the ear loop. The headset kept losing it's connection to my Treo 700WX and required a soft reboot of the Treo to get it to work again. Every time I talked on it the person on the other end experienced an echo. I was very disapointed as most of the reviews are very positive. To be fair, I can't use the ear bud type stereo headphones either, they just don't fit my ears. Also, other people have been having trouble with other bluetooth headsets with the new Treo 700WX. So, giving it the benifit of the doubt, I gave it a 2, but I was leaning towards a 1. | 0negative

This phone has a few issues.
I've had this phone a little over a year now, and I'm not impressed with it. My experiences with the Pearl are as follows.1) Blackberry Internet Service (BIS) starts at $30/month on top of your monthly rate plan. (The service plan on smart phones starts at $10/month as a comparison.) Only BIS will work on a Blackberry, so if you want a cheaper plan, go with a non-Blackberry phone. Also, if you choose not to have BIS and get the phone anyway (like I did), you won't be able to send/receive photo text messages.2) The phone does scratch and chip easily. Get a skin for it.3) The keyboard is great. Its ability to store jargon is fantastic.4) I drop a lot of calls, and the phone will show to have full signal. I'm not sure if this is ATT's fault or Blackberry though.5) Sound quality on the Pearl is poor compared to Nokia and LG phones. Voices alternate between sounding tinny and robotic.6) This phone freezes up every couple of weeks and I have to remove the battery to restart it. During one of these freezes, a missed call notification appeared that I couldn't clear. According to the forums and tech support, the only way to clear it is to wipe the phone, but I haven't tried this. Apparently there's a chance to wind up with a stuck missed call notification each time the phone freezes.7) While the Blackberry operating system is intuitive, it has limitations when compared to other mobile operating systems.In short, I'll be going with a different platform next time around. | 0negative

Not bad.
I haven't had any problems with the earset. I don't use it all the time, but it's going quite well. Whoever I'm speaking with doesn't ever need me to repeat what I'm saying... except when T-Mobile service sucks [and therein lies the problem.] | 1positive

Good, solid headset
Works well w/ my RAZR v3c. Calls were clear, no complaints on static or muffled sound.However, apparently my ear is smaller than average, so wearing it for prolonged periods of time is uncomfortable. Will probably exchange it for a Motorola H3.I've used Motorola H500 and Jabra BT150 and honestly, I could not tell the difference between any of them. The DSP tech is lost on me. | 1positive

Be wary...
I purchased this charger set a few months ago. The DC plugs for BOTH adapters were the wrong size. That should be a simple problem to fix, right? After going back and forth with customer support at Fosman, they determined what the problem was. I was optimistic. However, further communications from me have been ignored. I can't send it back, so I now have two useless adapters. | 0negative

Has potential, but I couldn't get it to work.
The unit itself is fine, I guess. It's a cheap Chinese box with no manufacturer name on the box or unit, but it does seem to be able to read a SIM card. I didn't have any luck actually using it, though, since the software is unstable and I can't find any alternative software that works with it.I got it from Geeks through this listing on Amazon.com. It looks just like the picture, and says "SIM Card Reader No. 652" on the back. The box and contents are similar, but not exactly like the pictures. The box does not say "650" in the bottom left corner or have the orange circle in the bottom right. Otherwise it looks the same. It also does not have "The Expert of USB V 1.353D" CD. Inside is an 80 mm Mini CD labeled "USB 2.0 Sim Card Reader".In Linux and Windows, it recognizes it as a standard mass storage device, but can't read anything because it's an unknown filesystem. (The tab on the side is for write-protect mode, by the way.) The documentation consists of a single .doc file on the CD, which seems to be largely copied from some USB flash drive documentation online, which isn't actually relevant to this device?The software is garbage. In Windows, I inserted the CD, which contains six files:wnaspi32.dllSkinMagic.dllSCSI.DLLDiskCtrl.dllSimCardRead.exeSIM Card Users Manual V1.0 - EN.docWhen I ran SimCardRead.exe, I was able to download my phone book according to the instructions in the .doc file and save it as a .CSV file. When I tried to download SMS messages though (which is why I bought this; my cheap phone doesn't accept a data cable), the software downloaded the messages, displayed them for a split second, and then crashed, persistently. So the hardware seems to work, but the software doesn't.I wrote to the company I bought it from for tech support, to see if they had any luck with previous customers or had alternative software I could use. They gave me a full refund and said not to bother sending it back. I'm going to buy something else, and this time I'm going to make sure the manufacturer actually has a website. With tech support. | 0negative

Best BT Headset I have tried.
I tried a few BT headsets and it came down to the Nokia BH-800 and the Jabra JX10. Both units have good audio quality. I also liked that both units are small. Thus, you don't look like you are on your way to a Star Trek convention while you are wearing them.While I liked the JX10's design over the BH-800, it had trouble understanding my voice commands. I use Microsoft Voice Command with my XV6700 PocketPC phone. I had to speak to the JX10 very slow and clearly to achieve only a 50% success rate in it understanding my commands the first try and subsequent tries. The BH-800 understands my commands closer to 90% on the first try and 99% on the second try. I was also able to speak to it in a more "natural" fashion. I wonder if the Bluetooth 2.0 specification with EDR makes the difference.Pros:1. Good audio quality. People can clearly hear me and I can clearly hear them.2. It's small. It's less "geeky" than some headsets.3. The neck strap is a nice bonus. The headset stays in place.4. My Microsoft Voice Command woks very well with the BH-800.Cons:1. I don't like the ring tone of the headset. I don't know if you can change it.2. The neck strap could be longer.3. I preferred the JX10's look and button layout. | 1positive

for dissatisfaction, look no further
This is not a Nokia product -- it's made by foneGear. "Ear cushions" is a misnomer for the 3 pieces of rubber that come with this product. There is no foam ear piece and it is extremely uncomfortable. I do love the label affixed to the product warning "wash hands after handling." | 0negative
