The device is the smallest I've seen. Very easily paired with my Siemens M75. The sound quality is great and it fits snugly in your ear. The convenient storage case allows for easy charging, which takes about an hour.Only problem experienced is that there is no real indication that the battery is running low and this is only noticed when switching from hand-held to the head-set is refused.All in all this device is highyly recommended.

Why spend $30 for a phone battery when you can get one for under $10? It was delivered promptly, and it keeps my Treo phone running for up to 3 days.

I bought this Body Glove Scuba Cellsuit Phone Case for my new Motorola T721. Even though the description says T720 and T722, it fits the T721 perfectly and the material seems to be excellent quality. The case comes in two separate pieces that are joined together by a snap. This makes it 'a snap' to put on or take off the phone - just put each piece on the phone and then snap them together. The belt clip releases from the bottom. I'll have to get used to that since the case for my last phone released from the top. The belt clip also has swivel capability, but it is superior to my last case because it clicks and locks into place at whatever angle I want. The only improvement that Body Glove can make would be to offer additional color choices.

I have had this phone for about 3mo. This is my 2nd phone in 3mo. The 1st one they sent would not work and I had to send it back. The outside face plate has already cracked. The back cover will not stay on. It is hard to open. The voice dial does not work well. And the photo options are hard to work. I tired to return back to T-Mobile but no luck. BTW if you are with another phone compnay DO NOT move to T-Mobile. I left NEXTEL, I am am so sorry I did. My T-MOBILE experience...BAD SERVICE, BAD SIGNAL!!!!It does not sound like it, but I think of my self as a level headed consumer...but my entire T-Mobile experience including the PEBL phone is one of the worst I have had with in the cellular industry.1 Star for a good looking phone.

This item has only one direction - take to a "certified wireless phone technician" to install this antenna. Save your money and don't get this item.

I've got to say, particularly for the money, I really like this bluetooth. One thing I found hard to believe is that I really thought it would be hard for others to hear me through the microphone, since it isn't placed all that close to the mouth. But I've asked several people, who always say it sounds really great.The sound in your ear is great - very crisp! I was a little concerned that the part that fits inside the ear might be a problem (assumed it might be on the large side to accommodate males too). But it is extremely comfortable for me. When looking at the set, I thought at first that it looked bulky. But the bulk of the bluetooth sits comfortably behind your ear and out of the way.I did find out that accidentally dropping this bluetooth automatically turns it into a puppy-magnet. Found the microphone-less bluetooth on the floor of my home office after coming back from a business trip (the very end, where the microphone is located). Found the rubber tip deep within the dog's bed. Hmmmm. Figured I had nothing to lose if I used super-glue and tried gluing it back on. Called my hubby, and what do you know - he said he could hear me perfectly. So...Plantronics is durable as well! I'd buy it again.

I bought 2 of these phones for my daughters and activated them last night. They are great! Perfect for them. I actually bought the 300 minutes/double minute plan for a year. There's a referral program where you and I would get 100 free minutes if I send you a referral. (...) It's really easy and for 100 free minutes, you can't beat it!!

I bought this phone when my Audiovox 8500 was stolen. The 8610 is generally a step up from that older model. It has a nice color screen. Menu navigation is easy, and it was no problem creating contacts and single-digit shortcuts to frequently called numbers. Reception and sound quality during a call are excellent.Although this phone is slightly bulkier than the 8500, it's still very small and easy to tuck into your pocket.The phone has the option to choose from several "desktops" for different looks on the screen. The ones Virgin Mobile preloads are generally pretty dumb looking, but no harm done. The phone also allows for a choice of screen savers, but Virgin Mobile only has one installed without an option to get more. It's a silly feature, anyway -- a cell phone doesn't need a screen saver.Oh, and don't forget, it comes preloaded with two games. One is sort of like Tetris. I don't use them, but my wife thinks they are all right.Virgin Mobile itself has very good customer service, and their pay-as-you-go setup is good if you don't make a lot of calls. They stand by their phones... if yours stops working under warranty, they will replace it without hassle.Audiovox has improved the ringtone quality from the previous model. Now the tunes sound good, not embarrassing, and you can also get sound effects and even voices yelling at you to answer the phone. (Of course that option will annoy everyone around you!) They even have a plain-sounding ring tone you can use, which believe it or not, the old 8500 model didn't have!My one big complaint is that the ringtone doesn't get loud enough. I can hear other peoples' cell phones ring all the time on the bus, on the street, etc. But with the Audiovox 8610, if there's any ambient noise, forget it, you probably won't hear your phone ring even when it's set at maximum volume. I use the "ring and vibrate" setting to help make up for this.Aside from the soft ringtones, I like this phone a lot and I recommend it!UPDATE: Nearly two and a half years later, this phone is still going strong. It looks completely beat up from being carried around in my pocket, but it's never failed me. There are newer and more feature-filled phones on the market, but for the basics, this one is still a winner!

I have had my Motorola Q for a week now and it has been my favorite phone i have ever had. I have had an Nextel i60, i95, i730, i860, and the i870. The i860 and i870 were great phones, but service made them act as if they were bad. So i got rid of Nextel and went to verizon with the q. The Verizon service is great, i get service EVERYWHERE! Texting is quick and easy. The Q is the coolest handheld device i have had. Windows Media Player is great for your playlists of videos and music. Internet Explorer can sometimes be faster than my computer! You can download media files from the web just by clickin the link. Installing and removing apps are easy. The phone is overall very easy to use. It is just like a computer. Now here are the goods and bads.good- service- web- media manger/player- camera qualitybad- e-mail- scrathes pretty easily- batteryThe only interal problem i have is the e-mail. I spent 2 days trying to set my aol e-mail up and when i finally did it successfully, i could only recieve mail and not send. also i suggest getting a leather case or rubber skin glove because the clip tends to scratch it easily. if your gonna use this phone every minute of the day, i suggest geting an extended battery because i am one of those people and the battery will only last 15 hours if lucky. If you leave the phone idle most of the time and just recieve and send phone calls it can last for 2-3 days.this phone is awesome i give it 5 stars and i wouldnt mind having a 2 year contract with it!

These headphones look good and they sound good -- if you keep them right next to the phone, that is. When the phone was placed in the pants pocket, the sound would interrupt every 15-20 seconds. Even when running with the phone in my hand, if I held the phone down below the waist level, the sound would cut out. In fact, Motorola's website recommends against keeping the phone in the front pants pocket, and, furthermore, advises the user to keep the phone in the line of sight (!) with the receiver (at the back of the wearer's neck).I tried this headset with two of the new Bluetooth-enabled phones from Sprint (LG Muziq and Samsung Upstage). Performance was horrible with Muziq; slightly better with the Samsung, but still unusable.These are going back, and I'm now using the new DR-BT21G headset from Sony. It doesn't sound as good, but is more comfortable, and, most importantly, doesn't cut out.

Good product, pairs easily with N800, compact, makes the n800, especially with KDE, an even better small alternative to carrying a notebook for internet and minor office stuff on the road or average use.

I never received my order, even after i contacted the seller, so, don't buy from them. But, as far as the skin is concerned, i got another one from a friend, and it's great. feels great, helps to stop from dropping the phone, and it looks great. it's a great buy for the Pearl, just not from this seller.

I ordered 1 (one) headset, was charged for and received 2 (two). I returned 1 (one) headset but never recieved any credit. I know it's only $4.01, but it's the principle.

Well, its pretty much what I was looking for.The screen is OK, I can read everything perfectly due to the font size and the back light. Now under the sun is a different deal, for some reason it's hard to read, but being not much of a day person so it doesn't bother me at all.The keys are really good, I really like the grip, I just use the tip of my fingers and nails and the keys work like a snapple cap.Well the software is nothing new, If you've had any of the latest SE it's pretty much the same, but it's like the saying goes: "If it's not broken don't fix it."I bought this phone because of the specs and the functions it has, being a serious aural junkie I am. Not having 3G available where I live (Or having it, but only a handful of people using it for a really high fee). In other words It's like I traded 3G for Infrared. Since my other interests where the W880 and the W660.The speaker was perfect, Ive never missed a call (Unless I'm in a different floor watching a movie)The phone is really slim and sexy it feels great to grab it and it fits perfectly in your pocket.The only thing I didn't like was the 512mb M2 card they ship with the phone, since I use the phone as a Walkman more than a phone a little space doesn't bother me, but I guess Its because the M2s are more expensive than the Pro duo that other phone use, they cannot ship 1gb ones.This is an overall great phone with great looks and style, excellent specs and if you're an aural junkie like me, and you don't need 3G maybe this will be it for you too.

I bought this item because i occasionally dropped my phone and was afraid of damaging it and also wanted to have the option of changing the color of my phone. It was a great product. The optional belt clip was a breeze to install and the entire thing was surprisingly durable. Overall I am very happy with the product and I even went and found one in blue too just to have the variety. I no longer use this phone as I have passed it down to my daughter who also loves the cover cases.

I bought this headset based on the folding boom for on/off control. This feature sets the H700 apart. With other headsets, you have to hold a button down for 6+ sec. This is a hassle if you are constantly on and off the headset as I am. Sound quality on this headset is also superior to the Jabra BT-350, which I had been using previously.After researching and using several bluetooth headsets, this is the best one I have found so far. Retails for $100, I got it for $42 from Amazon! What a deal!

I am terribly disappointed with my RAZR V3c phone. I purchased it for the bluetooth capability and the size and color which are the ONLY positive features. The viewing screen is so small that I can't even read the time and it does not give the option to use larger font size. The battery dies about three hours after being charged even if I haven't used the phone. It does not give me the ability to automatically call back someone who left a message unless that person also has Verizon service. I am forced to enter a code in order to hear my messages and I can't find any way change this. I wish I had my old Sprint phone again.

If you are an Apple customer and are used to buying and installing a company's products being "easy", then brace yourselves. (Better yet just stay away from IKM.) The experience of installing their products - be it on PC or iPhone - is just punishing.(If you are used to endless licensing issues with legal copies of Windows, then you may find your IKM experience just slightly less annoying.)I hear their amp sim product is pretty impressive, technically. And if I could get the right driver for mine without providing my ADDRESS and PHONE NUMBER I might be able verify this. But unless they RADICALLY improve their customer experience, IKM is not going to make it, as a company, in the long run.Why must I provide intimate personal details including my address and phone number, to get a HARDWARE driver to work?I bought the iPlug thing, and also the Stealth Cable. The latter required registering to get functional drivers for my OS. I had to enter every conceivable personal item of info (which of course I populated with bogus data - wth do they need my phone number for?).But before I even got THAT far, I had to manually enter long strings of serial numbers. But to do that, I had to manually enter a URL - which, after multiple tries, gave a 404. The page just didn't exist and it wasn't my spelling. It took me 20 minutes of angrily searching their terrible website (I'm a web designer - their site is terrible for customers).I also recently bought an iPhone/MIDI adapter. It certainly wasn't from IKM that's for sure! Not after the punishing experience I had as their former customer. It was from Line 6.If you value your time, stay away from IKM. There are just too many competent competing products out there, in every category they do business in.

The good:* Comfortable to wear.* Doesn't fall.* Good sound and speaker quality.The bad:* Horrible on/off switch.* Not great volume control.* Bad battery indicators.All in all while it isn't the worst product, there is so much to improve here that I simply can't see why it was such a top seller on Amazon. Shame.

When I tried to recharge my phone, I got a message tellingme it was an unauthorized charger. No, I did not order the wrong charger. Given the charger's price, my suspicion is the charger was counterfeit. But I will grant the possibility that it was simply a defective charger.

I used to have a Motorola RAZR, and that phone was crap--poor reception and slow response to keypresses. While waiting for the 1st gen iPhone to come out, I bought myself a cheap Nokia to hold me over. I was amazed at how well that Nokia worked, and that sold me on the brand.I got this Nokia HF33W for my wife's Highlander. It's convenient because Toyotas shut down power to the lighter when they're off, so the bluetooth kit is on only when the car is on. Unfortunately, there just aren't many bluetooth kits designed to plug into the cigarette lighter--at least not from a reputable brand.After many months of experience, I'm very disappointed with this device. First of all, you pretty much have to use the loudest speaker volume setting to hear people at a comfortable level while on the road. But that's the least of its problems. The bluetooth connection does constantly drop. This happened with both my wife's old Blackberry and her new iPhone 3G. Most of the times I call her, the calls would get dropped within a few secs of answering. She'd call me back with the handset, and there'd be no problems with that, so it's not a reception problem. The mic sensitivity is far too weak as well. On the rare occassion that I'm actually able to have a conversation through this device, her voice comes through as being very faint and distant.Like a previous reviewer, we're going to replace this with a BlueAnt. It's too bad they don't have a model that plugs directly into the cigarette lighter.

So, I bought this item because of the rave reviews about it's clarity. I didn't realize how hard it would be to put on. The directions are simple...run the large piece along your ear and fit the ear piece into your ear canal....not that simple. I have small ears to begin with so that large back piece is too heavy. And since I have to wear glasses, there isn't much more space back there. Don't get me wrong, the ear piece has great clarity and I haven't had any problems with the other person hearing me, even when driving. I just can't get the darn ear piece to stay put.I keep having to adjust it when I'm driving, which isn't safe. So, if you wear glasses, even sunglasses, or have small ears....steer clear of this piece!

The unit has to establish a Bluetooth connection on every call , will not stay connected. It becomes easier to just use handset rather than the headset. Callers tell me that they can hear alot of background noise while driving. If I hadn't damagedthe packaging while opening I would have sent back for return. I wasted my money.

Recently decided to purchase the Treo 750, but after ordering Amazon sends shipping info and it won't arrive for about a month and a half! I cancelled and went to Cingular and purchased for a lesser price and had it in my hands immediately. Sad....

I don't use my headset all the time but when I need it I want it to be good. This one is much better than the last one I had. I can hear better and others have said they can hear me better. I sometimes still have to press it in to my ear to prevent outside noises from coming in. It's very comfortable and the buttons are easy to use.

I've tried some Bluetooth headsets in the past and I decided to never buy one for me because the poor sound quality. I also had very bad experiences with the wired headsets.A colleague recommended me this Plantronics and now I can say this is the best I ever used. I can use it with my two cell phones and the sound quality is perfect. I charge the battery once a week and use it while driving, working or walking around.

With Cingular/AT&T; not supporting its older devices, it is difficult to find replacement batteries without driving all over town, or paying an arm and a leg, especially for shippingThankfully, this relationship with Amazon exits.I have used them twice for replacement batteries, one aftermarket and one OEM for two devices. The price was excellent, the US mail shipping timely and reasonably priced, and the batteries performed well. I am pleased with the availability, price and performance of the batteries from this Amazon partner.

The fit is very uncomfortable, and for some reason, I constantly have to re-pair these headphones with my devices, as they don't recognize like they should. The "Bluetooth" logo on the back of the headset band fell off while still in the box. I highly recommend that you DO NOT buy these terrible things.

This device is pretty simple, plug it in, hold the button to pair and thats pretty much it. It works fine with theJabra BT620s Headphonesand does its job well, but my only complaint is that it seems to suffer from some interference every now and then that some of my other Bluetooth devices don't.Please note well that this is just a minor quibble, and the overall performance is superb. The device comes with a USB-A to USB-Mini-B cable (pretty standard) and will charge via any USB port. I get between 8-12 hours of use per charge.Note: This will only work with headsets that support the A2DP profile. It does not have a regular Mono headset profile.

I purchased this item for the color Pixter my son received for his birthday. However, the color Pixter is a completely different shape, and therefore, made this one unusable. I hope that they come out with a color version, I like the idea of being able to hold the game and a few cartridges together -- especially for travel.

Pro's: A nice looking set of headphones for the price. Shop around, you'll find prices anywhere from $149 on Wireless Underground to $29.Con's: It would be nice if Motorola supported these with software. My Vista system can't pair with them without a driver and the bluetooth drivers resident within Vista don't work. So they are worthless unless you can find a working driver. I have read that the Blue Soleil driver (priced at $20 on line) will make them work.Overall: Motorola out to be drummed out of business for selling a product without the software required to make it work ....or at least have it available for free on their web site --- which they do not at this time (11/24/09)

I only turn on my Star Tac when making outgoing calls, and use a separate pager for incoming messages. If you do that, you only need to charge both the batteries (the standard and this one) about once every two or three months (depending on your time in use). Definitely buy this battery! You can take it off at will if you want a slimmer phone for certain occasions.

This product is great in a pinch, when you need power at the most inconvenient times for your phone battery to be zapped. It is not meant to be used daily or even to charge your battery completely, but instead as an emergency source of power. And for this, it is great. I used mine several times over a year's time (until I got a different phone), and it worked everytime.

I think Burton is onto something excellent here..... however, it'll probably be another year or two before its technology is perfectedFirst off - the jacket is excellent! Very flexible, warm, and waterproof --- so no complaints on the jacketIt is the technology that disappoints meThe jacket has a neat construction --- you keep your iPod on one side of your chest and your phone on the other side, with a remote on your wrist that pretty much controls both devicesThe phone functions are neat because calls come through immediately, with the speakers in the hoodie allowing you to hear the other person calling and a mic in the front part allowing you to talk ---- the entire setup is pretty convenient and pretty solid, as people could hear me well and I could hear themHowever, the speaker could be better..... calls and music come through clear, but I wish it were much louderThe iPod functions are what really upset me though -- the iPod is slow to respond to the wrist controls functions.... in addition, sometimes the iPod functions won't work if you have the phone connected on bluetoothoverall -- the stability of the jacket's system needs to be worked out --- I'm pretty impressed with it, but wait another year for Burton to fix this onePEACE AND LOVE AND HAPPY BUYING!!!!!!Muhammad Ali Hasan

My joystick fell off two weeks ago, sent the unit to HP telling them in advance the problem on my 6515 phone, clerk said to send it in on warranty. Got phoned back by HP, they told me they cannot repair the unit they offered a swap and wanted to charge me 303$ (excessive). I paid the unit 400$ on ebay, I tried to discuss the issue with a corporate office sales relation person in Canada and they say I had misused it. I have had 3 ipaqs in the last 8 years a 3660, a 3955 wich I still own, I know how much pressure to apply to an Ipaq button... had a problem once with the stylus button on my 3660, Compaq had at that time happily repaired it at no charge, things have changeg since HP took their business. I discussed this with the corporate office telling them this issue is frequently related on the internet. On one site a guy had a 6515 with cingular, he had had four replacements because of the same problem. Even in their own forum site this problem is refered to. An ebay seller is offerring a replacement button fo 24$, HP told me to buy it from them, can you believe that? On top of all that they said to me I had to pay an evaluation fee of 67$, told thew I did not want to pay... They replied they would send this to a collection agency if I did not pay within 90 days. My guess is this issue would cost too much to HP to recall deffective units so they prefer to abuse their custemors by telling them it's misuse... I plan to take them to small claims court and post this comment on as many sites as possible starting here. Good luck!

I bought this bluetooth and it never worked. I was on the phone with Motorola tech support so they can walk me through linking it up to my cell phone (which is also a Motorola) but it never worked. They are sending me another bluetooth (H710). I hope I have better luck with this model.

I checked several available products for a carrying case for my new Moto Q but felt all were lacking in some respect. The one sold by the AT&T; store was no bargain at $30 and appeared flimsy.This case holds the phone comfortably yet securely. It has a nice professional appearance, is soft and supple, lined, and has a strong clip, although the clip is not ratchetable, nor does it have a spring to open and close it easily. The pouch covers about three-quarters of the phone and a complete fold-over flap protects the phone while riding on your hip.Although I usually prefer a horizontal case, this case is stylish and small enough not to be too gaudy on one's hip. The magnets are too weak, as has been previously stated, but that is likely because both the magnet and the metal counter are covered by leather and cloth.The vendor provides quick delivery, a well packaged product, and responded quickly to my concerns regarding the weak magnetic clasp. For the price, it is a deal...or one can pay $30 or more for a case that is likely not much superior.

While the service from Amazon was as good as usual, the replacement battery I purchased for my Motorola cell phone (V195) from the supplier Bargaincell is useless. It doesn't hold a charge for more than one day even though the phone is used infrequently. The cost of returning it and paying for shipment isn't worth it. Amazon should check Bargaincell for its record on defective merchandise.M. MielkeGeorgia

Background and wind noise is not a problem. The unit is small, light and can be worn on your ear, lanyard or lapel.

These are awesome! They fit any removable battery and are a perfect fit to ensure you will always have a charge. If you have two batteries you can swap in and out, then one can always be charging or charged and stored in your wallet, etc. I would keep a charged battery in my wallet at all times "just in case". Great idea and great implementation!

I have had this phone less than a year. I have had it replaced two times so far and have, the whole time I have owned it, not had a full month of this phone working properly. Right out of the box the first time it had speaker problem and did not ring. The next time people would call me and not be able to hear me, but I could hear them. The main reason I picked it was because it has a camera.The camera could be better, but for the price, is not too bad. The phone does go through power very quick. Any day I talk on it I have to charge it.Although I have had many tech problems with this phone, it seems to be strong physically, nothing on it has broken, including the screen on the front. It also has a nice sized color screen.So if you buy this phone, just make sure you keep up the insurance and keep track of your warrenty info because it will need to be replaced.

The keypad had died about a month ago. I had been shopping for a replacement phone in that time and I couldn't find anything that I liked.

Was talking with my family 5 minutes after receiving the order.

This is my first bluetooth headset and I am very satisfied with it. Plantronics packed it full of good features and accessories. The metal case comes in very handy when travelling. The fact that you can use your cell phone charger with one of the included adapters to charge the headset means one less power adapter to take along while travelling. The in-ear design makes hearing the person on the other line very easy. You can barely feel the device while wearing it. Reception has been good. I sometimes leave the phone in my bedroom and wander around the apartment without losing the connection.

I got this for my Samsung Eternity. It works well, charges and enables data sharing. A great replacement to the crappy charger I had before, I had to angle it a certain way or it wouldn't charge my phone at all. This cable just clicks in and gets to work

I've used the Nokia 6131 phone for 2 months, it has a great feature set and I initially thought it'd be a good phone - beware of reviews posted after only a few days of use.Battery life is abysmal. With bluetooth, etc. enabled, initially I was getting about 1.5 days of useful life. After 2 months, with bluetooth disabled and all power saving features set the phone won't last 24 hrs between charges.The phone will not work with a dead battery even when plugged into the charger. You must wait until the battery has sufficient charge before the phone can be used. And charge time is slow - charging while driving 45 min daily did not get or keep the phone fully charged. You'll need to plug it in to the charger every night.Unlike other phones this phone does not charge when connected via the USB cable. And the USB cable is proprietary - you cannot use a standard mini-USB.The Nokia-proprietary stereo headset left earbud stopped working after 2 weeks. The radio and mp3 player do not support a bluetooth headset (mine is mono - not sure if a stereo bluetooth headset would work). So for me, no NPR or audiobook MP3s on the bluetooth headset.The lid of the phone presses the "0" button when very little pressure is applied. Take it out of your pocket and you'll have to clear the "000000000"'s before dialing. Oh yeah - those 0's also took your phone out of its power-saving sleep mode and consumed valuable battery life while you were not using it.The flip-button is neat but I handed my phone to a friend to call home, didn't tell him about the button and when he opened it without the button - crack, the cheap-o latch broke. It should have been designed to work ok for the button-uninitiated.I've had great success with other Nokia phones but this one is a failure. I expect they'll get flip phones right at some point but I'll be using another brand until then.

Do not waste your money on this product. The reason we bought it was because the clip of the original case that we bought w/ the phone broke after 3 years. The new one broke within 5 days. It is a piece of junk!

Can someone start a company called "we won't screw you", because these guys did. Volume, reception and battery life are garbage rated at best. I am really surprised. This will be the first time I have left a cell phone company. I am saying goodbye to Verizon for not taking this back, telling me how great the phone was and not giving me a discount on a replacement phone...only new customers. Well I am a new customer, just no longer theirs. By verizon.

I have an 80GB video Ipod, and this shield is absolutely phenomenal.Don't let the other reviews fool you. There is a lack of spray, but it was enough for me to get it all on. I used a few extra sprays of the solution on every piece of the product. (I screwed up the back side, and had to respray using up the last of my spray). It took me about 20-30 minutes to install it.I wish I had gotten it prior to my Ipod getting scratches on it because it looks phenomenal now. I keyed it on the back side, and I could not penetrate the shield. If you didn't know better (and you install properly), you would not even know there is a shield on it.I recommend this to anyone who is willing to go through the hassle there is to install it because it is worth it.

I have never had a bluetooth with a vibrate function.You can see where this is going.It is BTW comfortable, has great clarity and so on.But this evening in the kitchen I had forgotten I still had the headset on... in my ear I heard ding ding ding BUZZZZZZZZZZZ BUZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZand kids it was loud enough to wake the dead. When I realized there wasn't the mother of all bumble bees in my ear, and changed my shorts, I decided to share :-)I'm glad I bought it. Good unit

I OWN THIS PHONE FOR MANY MONTHS. IF YOU RESIDE IN A BIG, CONGESTED CITY LIKE NEW YORK(EXAMPLE), DONT BUY THIS MODEL. I HAVE SPENT MORE TIME REDIALING FOR DROPPED CALLS IN MY LOCAL AREA, THAN ACTUAL TALK TIME. IF YOU WANT TO USE THIS PHONE OUTDOORS, YOU WILL HAVE MORE SUCCESS. I PURCHASED THIS MODEL FOR INDOOR AND OUTDOOR USE AS MOST PEOPLE DO. I FINALLY PURCHASED A NOKIA WHICH IS WORKING JUST FINE.

These batteries are junk. Too bad they only last a day. I guess for the price I won't be returning. Save your money.

I've been a big fan of Box Wave corp's cases... They fit great, provide adequate shock protection, and much needed grip for the ceramic back of the Note 2. Also has enough lip that it shouldn't interfere with a screen protector much. Fantastic buy and will get again for whatever my next phone is

I bought this phone a month ago because I was tired of having bad service with Nextel. I had Verizon 2 years ago and really liked their service. I went to the Circuit City store and asked the representative which phone he recommended. He showed me the LG VX6100. I thought it was going to be a good phone with all the features. I brought it home and it was great for about a 15 days. After that (which was obviously when the 15-day trial period ended), my phone started to stop working all the time, I had bad service, and then recently, my phone charger stopped working.I'm not 100% sure if it's the service or the actual phone, but I'm so frustrated with Verizon right now that I am almost willing to pay the $175 early termination and go back to Nextel.

I purchased the iGo Stowaway Keyboard for use with a Nokia N75 cellphone. Some of the functions on the keyboard obviously won't work with it, but everything that I need it to do works fine. The device has made the N75 much more useful and easy to use. Construction of the Stowaway keyboard seems adequate. I do wish that the keyboard would set a little bit flatter and not bounce some when depressing the keys on the far right of the keyboard. This is just a minor annoyance and is far outweighed by the ease of use with the phone. Overall, I'm very pleased with the product and the feel of the keys when typing.

I have owned this phone for about four months now. The signal quality is poor. I have to strain to hear. The calls drop out regularly. Often after a couple of rings the phone stops ringing. I am quite seriously unhappy with this phone. Now here is the really awful part, there is no easy way to dial someone from the contact list. No easy way to scroll and dial. The dial button is often not available on the contacts. Basically the Palm part is not integrated with the phone, they are two separate devices.

i just purchased this headset 2 weeks ago after eagerly waiting for it for months when motorola hyped it up nearly 6 months back. i was even on their "notify me when it comes out" list. i have a motorola e-815 phone, and this headset annoyed the heck out of anyone i was talking to on the other end (static, mumbly sound, etc). it's awesome for it's flip mic style, etc etc, but it sucks. trust me...if a motorola phone gets static with a motorola headset, you're not gonna have too much luck with it if you use another phone. i usually try to see the good in things, but i've just been severely disappointed by this one. sorry to those of you who were eagerly waiting to purchase this headset, as i was. i returned mine to BB yesterday.

We purchased this converter to use with a hot/cold cooler that we use in our van. We had the van plug but didn't have one for the house. We ordered another one prior to this which wasn't powerful enough to turn the cooler on. This one works perfectly! Yeah!

Having previously been a Nokia customer, I thought I would try something different. This is a nice looking phone - but it's could easily have been so much better. For a customer mainly interested in using it for phoning and text messaging, this phone has an unfriendly menu. It almost seems like it is trying to make it difficult for you. Several features such as editing a contact or writing a text message can only be done if the menus are accessed from a certain way - for example, I cannot select someone from the address book and then choose to write them a message!! Why should I have to write the message first or reply to a previous message?I have also found on several occasions, that when I try answering a call when the keypad is locked, it diverts it to the answering machine. In the end it costs me since I then have to phone the person back. For the times you occasionally forget to lock the phone, the WAP button (a feature I never use) is conveniently the only feature that starts with the press of a single button - so it goes online while in your pocket.The photo quality is very poor - it might as well not have a camera. I uploaded a photo onto the phone so that I could have a decent background. Even if you do like photos - you cannot store very many (about 20 or 30). Annoyingly Sony Ericcson decided not to let you delete some of the pictures that came with the phone to free up space for more photos.Oh it does have one good feature - the quality of the reception. Admittedly this is important in a phone, but I expect most phones nowadays have good reception.Roll on October when my contract expires ...

I bought this cheap bluetooth since I do not typically use my phone much while driving.The good:* the voice quality is not bad* The call button is large and easy/soft to operateThe bad:* Does not fit or stay on the ear. The large ear hook is useless because the ear bud is at an improper distance from the pivot point of the ear hook. The device ends pointing straight up, but still does not stay put. This device is meant to fit only a select (few) number of people. I would not recommend you chance it.

I didnt like it from the moment i put it on. Poor fit, horrible belt buckle with an impossible to find clip. The color was a bit 'loud' for me too.Interestingly enough i ordered a similar case in black from another maker (same style though) and like it much better. It actually stays on my phone and the belt clip is easy to find.

As someone who used the original Palm Pilot and eventually the Handspring Visor with Visor phone, I thought off and on about buying the Treo 650. The very mixed, sometimes extreme, reviews of the 650 and the relatively high price for an unlocked Treo kept me away. With the release of the next generation of Treos drmatically forcing down the price of the 650 I decided to take a chance. After a week of fairly active use I have to say that I am extremely pleased with my new Treo. I bought my new unlocked (Cingular branded) Treo online. The phone clarity is as good as any mobile phone that I have owned. I have not had any dropped calls. The browswer and e-mail client that came loaded on my Treo work well. I live in a country where the fastest mobile data connection is still GPRS/EDGE, so my Tro 650 is just right. I easily synced my Treo with my MacBook with no problems. Over all for $225 + shipping and handling of $20 I have to say that this was a real bargain.

I've seen Bluetooth headsets for 'bargain prices' but not Motorola and not with a rechargeable battery and charger. What a deal! Works great with both Razr and LG 6000 and setup proceeded flawlessly. Can't go wrong with this in my opinion.

I got this for my Blackberry Pearl. I had a previous version of this keyboard for my PocketPC, and my expectations were high. First impression - nice packaging, and the fit and finish were slick. However, things when downhill from there. First of all, there was a paper sticker which wrapped around from the back of the keyboard and onto the keys. This provides instructions on opening and closing it. However, when I went to remove this sticker, it turns out that the adhesive on the sticker is strong, and the paper is weak, resulting in my having to use my fingernail to scrap gunk off the keys to the keyboard. I got maybe 20% off the back of the unit and just gave up - ANNOYING! Then I plugged the batteries in and went to pair it with my Blackberry. Even though item description on Amazon states "for Blackberry" and so does the sticker on the packet, THERE ARE NO INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING THIS DEVICE WITH A BLACKBERRY. PocketPC yes, Palm yes, Symbian yes, Blackberry NO! ARGH!

Just got my WEP200 yesterday. Took me about 10 sec to connect to my Razr phone. Reception is perfect (no static, sound is clear and loud). The first charge took longer than the specified time which is 2 hours for a full recharge (took 4 hours before I got the blue light). As for how the headset holds in my ear, well I guess I got the right one (ear) because it hold solidly in place and is relatively comfy. BUT I tried both ears: in my right one, with the loop positioned as shown in the instruction manual, the headset had no grab at all; with the loop in the same position, I tried the left year and the fit was perfect. A trick here: when you set the headset in your hear, insert it as solidly as possible in your ear while holding the WEP200 vertically; once inserted turn it 90 degrees while pushing it in your ear. In my case that locks it solidly.

I do not really like this phone at all. I bought it off Ebay, which was a mistake to start off with. The seller had said it was barely used but I doubt it. At first the phone seemed nice but then i started to have the same problems other people have. My LCD screen cracked and there is now a big blob on it. Also sometimes when I call people I can hear them talk, but they can't hear me. It is rather strange. Yesterday I pulled out my phone and realized that the screen wont even come back anymore. I can still dial but I cannot even see the screen to see if I messed up dialing a number. I reccomend that if you are going to get a cell phone you should try another one first.

Do Not buy this case. It has poor fit and finish!! Once installed it will not let the phone close properly and the worst thing is it is not leather. I have never seen leather like this. I bought it for the looks but the fit and finish stinks!!

I bought this phone and am returning it. The features are fine. It has a video and still camera, and mp3 player. the problem is the connectivity. I bought this bluetooth phone hoping it would sync with my mac. It does not. There is one program which supposedly bridges the gap, but after dropping $300 on a phone I didn't really want to spend and extra $50 to make it work right.Other complaints I had was the keypad is awkward to type on it is recessed and the lip on the top and bottomg got in the way of typing in numbers.Also T-zones doesn't work at all I guess this is and EDGE phone but T-mobile doesn't have their EDGE netwrok set up or something like that.Generally I liked the layout of the phone. I just wish I could sync it with my mac. to me the most important function of a phone is managing contacts and right now this does not work with the t809 and a mac

I've had this phone since April 2006 (basically, as early as one could get it in the US). Initially, it certainly had some issues, but a few flash updates and ultimately updating it to the IE version made for a much more stable and useful phone. I've tried several of the VOIP services on it (Gizmo, Truphone, Fring) all with good success, although dialing in with DTMF tones for conference calls has usually been challenging. Pictures, as others have said, require a steady hand and don't plan on capturing anything in a timely manner (ie: forget action shots) but those pictures that aren't blurred can be printed on photo paper and would pass for photos from a "real" digital camera. Video mode has image stablization which makes for capturing movies at a moments notice quite easy and with good results. Having a "video camera" in my pocket has allowed me to capture many a moment of my daughter that I would have otherwise missed or been dissappointed with had I not chosen this over another lesser phone. The best software for syncing your calendar (with Outlook anyway) has been the "SEVEN" beta - realtime updates over your data plan, no need to leave bluetooth on, or manually syncing - calendar is always up to date! The web browser rocks, but having limited input (T-9) I find it mostly useful for checking the weather or a quick lookup of some tidbit of information. The superior screen resolution really allows you to cram in a good part of a web page onto the screen. I've considered upgrading to the N95, but from what I've heard the GPS doesn't work all that well and that's the only reason I might make the move to it. I honestly haven't used the MP3 player that much, but it has come in handy when traveling and for throwing some lullaby's on it for helping my daughter sleep while on trips. I've tried the mapping application that Nokia is giving away (sort of), and it worked quite well (I have an old Holux bluetooth device that I used with an IPaq a couple years ago). It would be nice if Google maps did turn by turn guidance on Symbian... maybe soon. It has been quite durable and is showing little signs of wear despite being in my pocket every day for a year and a half. At work, I've had several impromptu conference calls using the phone and everyone comments on the clarity of the speaker phone, my boss says it's better than his blackberry's speaker. It is also quite simple to make a second call and create a conference of two or more other callers... simply amazing! There are certainly some shortcomings, most of which I knew going in (ie: no qwerty, and it's a little thicker than most phones) but I have to say there isn't much I'd change. If you are good about turning off bluetooth and wifi and data when not needed, the battery does just fine, given the capabilities of this device. All in all, I'm please and will likely stick with this phone for a while longer. A lot of phones have come out since I bought this (including the iPhone) but I've yet so see one that has convinced me to trade up.

This has been SO handy. It is getting very difficult to obtain accessories for my Palm Centro. The cord is short enough so it doesn't get tangled up in the rest of the snakes' nest, yet long enough to be helpful. Thank you VERY much. I will definitely be a repeat customer.

I really like the way this fits in the ear. It is comfortable and makes for a good sound quality on the listening end. I also am pleased that the people who are receiving my calls can hear me very clearly. This product is much better for me than a bluetooth for both these reasons.

It was easy setting up with phone, LG VX8300. The headset was purchased for my wife. The quality of sound when speaking sounds muffled to everyone that she is talking to. It is very difficult to understand her when she is using the headset. She had to quit using it. The Jabra BT500 that I have works great.

I have this phone for about 2 weeks now. Actually, I had to order a second piece of the same phone as the bluetooth won't work in the first phone. I was a bit apprehensive about getting this phone and T-Mobile service. Firstly because I had read lot of bad reviews about T-Mobile and secondly because I was not sure how it will work with Amazon. But I was pleasantly surprised with the customer service that I received from Amazon. I did not find any customer service number on their website. I hesitantly contacted the customer service using the form provided on the website. I got response in about 3hrs. And I the replacement phone next day. Its working fine. Enough about Amazon, here are the Pros and Cons of the phonesPros -- Small, light weight, blue tooth, infrared, WAP enabled with GSM (so it should work throughout the world)- Free sync software comes with the phone. Easy to synchronize the outlook contacts with the phone.- Camera is easy to use.- The menu layout is easy to use and intutive.- My experience with T-Mobile customer service was very good.Cons -- Small buttons.- Some of the common menus (text messaging etc) need couple of clicks to get there.- Camera resolution is not good.- The software that comes with the phone is not easy to use.- T-Mobile reception is not necessarily good at all the places.

I spend a lot of time on the cell phone...3000+ minutes/month. Most of the time is in the car (and mine has very loud road noise). I was able to pick up the new HP iPAQ PocketPC phone with bluetooth. I figured that since it had bluetooth, I'd go all the way with the headset also....after much research I settled on the Logitech...awesome choice!!! It fits really well and the volume it puts out is 2nd to none (I've had the one's with volume control). The only thing I don't like about it is that my voice command doesn't work very well. I've found that this is not the fault of the headset...it is a HP issue. I'll figure it out....but after many corded and non-corded headsets....this sets the standard. Very well done guys.

CONS:buttons are a little too narrow. txting is sometimes a little counterintuitive. if you buy the international version, then it's difficult to get the network up and running. I still haven't gotten mine up and I've followed through with customer service's directions.PROS:Nice candy bar shape. Sleek. Good quality camera pics. No lag in the operating system (compared to SLVR). Makes/takes calls. Good amount of features.

I purchased the Plantronics 510 to use with two identical Motorola Razr cellular telephones. I found it to be an excellent product overall.CONS:I found only one... when I utilyze both cellular phones in close proximity, one will have a weak signal from the headset, and will sometimes lose the signal completely. This may be due to the utilization of identical phones.PROS:1. It comes with three earpieces of different sizes, and I found one that fit very comfortably.2. The sound quality is excellent, both reception and transmission. People I talk to have no idea that I am utilyzing a wireless headset.3. It was very easy to set and sync with my cellular phones, and easy to operate.4. After two months, my headset microphone stopped working. I filled out on online form, and Plantronics sent me a new headset within three days, and did not require proof of purchase! Outstanding!

Truly a waste of money. Useless level 1 tech support. Obnoxious phone queue forces you to listen to their terrible audiotext message over and over and over again every 15 seconds. No toll free tech support.Our install insisted upon Admin credentials while in fact the install was being done in Admin account. Junior tech support gave us a workaround. That didn't help.Then they sent us an applet so they could get a snapshot of our system info. Still no help.Getting ready to call the credit card company and file a dispute.DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY !!!!I WISH I HAD READ ALL THE NEGATIVE REVIEWS FIRST !!!!

hey..... i bought this phone in RADIO SHACK. and when i activate the phone... it telled me my number. Also it's a CAMERA PHONE. I think you should get this for your kids cause you don't need to pay MONTHLY and all you have to do is add 20.00 each month. So i would rather buy this item instead of the FIREFLY phone......ps:it's on sale for 99.99 until december 31 2005
