Jabra BT8040

VERY COOL BT EAR PIECE!

The thing i enjoy about this the most is the ability to listen to music from my phone! I was kinda sketchy to the concept, but it is MONO sound, and sounds very good. The sound quality and volume is nice.

The ear bud fits snug in my ear and doesn't slip out or bounce around when i turn my head.

Since it allows music, you can also hear your ringtones, applicaiton/game noises, and other sounds your phone makes.

Another rad feature is the "MultiPoint" connection that allows you to connect up to 8 devices, and have 2 working at any one time.

It's a small ear piece, but is good quality, sounds great, and works well!

I just bought one of these... they're on sale right now at:

It ends today so you need to make up your mind pretty quick.

HTC Touch supports A2DP which is the main thing in supporting stereo music. The BT8040 also supports this (majority of mono headsets won't), so you shouldn't see any issue using the two together.

I hope at least... that what wryun mentions he's doing. It's also what I plan on doing. And from other reading it sounds like there won't be an issue.

I had one of these. In theory it could have been the greatest earbud ever. Unfortunately I had constant issues.

First, you cannot keep it in the traditional diagonal position for an earbud as the microphone rests on your cheek and is thus muffled.

Second, and this is what really pissed me off, the mic eventually stopped working. I would try the voice dial and it would never register my voice. Call after call would come in and I would answer without the caller being able to hear me. Seriously, the only way I could get it to finally work was to throw it at something...i.e., the ground, my dashboard, my windshield, the walls, etc...

I retired it and it has since been lost, possibly in the wash. I currently switch off between an invisio g5 (as small as the jabra with few issues) and a Samsung WEP470. Neither have A2DP and I must admit I miss that, but actual functionality is more important to me.
