I run the Jabra and the Plantronics for work and personal phones, preferring the Jabra to be honest due to the plethora of soft ear bits that come with it.

Although I have noticed the N73 (personal) is no way as powerful via bluetooth as the 6021 (work). I tested them back to back with both headsets and the 6021 is louder and sharper and generally WAY better than the N73.

Have you downloaded the phone lock programme for the 73 yet ? Such a PIA not having one built in.

Rich, what's the quality like (build/sound/connection/compatibility) between the Jabra and the Motorola ones quoted above? My crappy plantronics one is a similar shape to the Jabra and it annoys me a bit the way it sits on my ear. The Motorola one looks a bit more comfortable. The price is also very tempting, but if you're doing that deal on the Jabra and it's better, I would be interested. :thumbsup

Can you find out if they both autopair with an Orange SPV M500? Thanks!

I have no idea what you are talking about. I deal with bills, services and redemptions.

I know FA about phones!

Why do you lot all want more than one BTW, do you have one in each ear? (And one up your nose in Lawrence's case) :lol:

I need 3 for the vans which are very noisy inside

but Skyenet's visor option may be better

As Iain said not much use in an Elise ;)

Nokia BH-800 is their choice for the Yorkie look ;)

I'll bring the Visor one and the Jabra BT250 along on Sunday to the Autotest and you can try them both. It will be the afternoon before I get down.

In fact if you drilled a hole in the LHS side of your helmet and the RHS of your pax you could have an intercom!

To keep this sensible (ish) can anyone interested PM me with the make and model (Off the CPW website please!) and your address. I'll get them when I can as I have to go into store to get me discount.

Appreciate this Rich, but I've scored a goal! :D

Just by fluke, whilst chatting to my B-I-L, he has a spare Nokia (not sure of model yet) one kicking about the house - I do like a freebie, me 8)
