I am considering getting a Motorola HS830 bluetooth headset (see http://www.motorola.com/motoinfo/product/details/0,,75,00.html for details), but would like to know if it works with the Wizard before I do. Unfortunately, it is not stocked at any of my local stores.

Has anyone had the opportunity to try one, and if so, what is your opinion of it?

Thanks in advance.

I'm using a HS820 with no problems at all. I would guess that the 830 works as well.

I appreciate your comment. However, the HS830 is actually designed as an attachment for a motorcycle helmet and is therefore a very different device from the HS820 (which is a fairly standard headset).

I should probably have been a bit more specific in what sort of information I was looking for in my original post. I am specifically wondering about the following...
1. Will it pair with a Wizard? If the answer is no, then the remaining questions don't matter of course.
2. What is the incoming sound quality like - can you hear whoever your talking to clearly when driving on the highway, etc.?
3. What is the outgoing sound quality like - can whoever your talking to hear you, or does the wind drown you out, etc.?
4. Does the built in Voice Speed Dialer utility work well with it?
5. Does it work well with MS Voice Command using the registry hack to enable it via bluetooth?
6. Any other opinions regarding the device (size of the buttons, weight of the pendant, whatever).
