Bluetooth model plantronics?
Hey,
I have a iphone 3gs and i lost my headset. Looking to buy a plantronics wireless bluetooth headset. But i am confused with their numerous plantronics models (510 , 520 , 855 , 665 etc). Can someone suggest me a good model (compatible with iphone and having clear reception even while driving)
The 665 is cool.

Plantronics Voyager PRO UC headset does Bluetooth and VoIP
Patrick, exactly
Richard, that's completely not true. Most laptops are not restricted regarding what their internal bluetooth chip can do. I can't even fathom why you would think this. Did you simply not try? I'm pretty sure both Windows Vista and 7 support using bluetooth for generic input and output, meaning you wouldn't even need a program that specifically supported BT. I'm 90% sure that with little effort this would even work in XP. It sure as hell has worked on every mac that has ever had BT. Are you running OLPC OS on that HP?
You can use any BT headset with your computer (using Windows) as long as you update the BT stack. You can use the widcom or broadcom stack for free or you can buy a program like bluesoleil. I'm using an old plantronics 650e which I much prefer as I don't have anything over my ear like the model in the photo. The 640e goes for about $40 and I'm using my BT dongle that also controls my logitech keyboard and mouse.
What the hell, engadget. I keep reading this over and over to see if I'm just missing something, but I'm not. You've been duped by a marketing tactic. Newsflash, this "dual-mode feature" is on every bluetooth headset in existence. When you connect a bluetooth headset with a dongle (or an internal module), software can let you use the bluetooth headset for VOIP, or anything else regarding input/output of audio streams.
"Users can even stream audio over it" OH WOW REALLY? YOU CAN STREAM AUDIO WITH A BLUETOOTH HEADSET?! JESUS CHRIST, SOMEONE CALL THE PRESIDENT, ALL OUR PROBLEMS ARE OVER.
I'm going to take an existing bluetooth headset and market it as "dual mode" with "voice note taking". Engadget can expect their review unit in the next week.
BT sales likely went down because most people already have one. (Luckily they're not engineered to die in 1 yr.)
I still prefer wired headsets for many of my calls. Unfortunately, there aren't many wired options now. Recently bought a Plantronics and I can't stand that it's 2.5mm and I need an adapter to use it with my 3.5mm phone.
