I've had one since they were released by Sprint. First one sent back to motorola, due to a bad microphone. 2nd one MUCH improved! I've now sent it off to averysound.com to update my custom ear piece to get a better fit.
The stock eartips & ear hook hurt after several hours. I've been using a custom ear piece since the jawbone1 days.
The only hitch on the HX-1 is that it is picky to get it to fit right. If you don't have the bone conduction thingy sitting correctly, everyone will say you sound like you are a mile away.

Wow, custom molded! I'd like that as well. Obviously the fit of the HX-1 in the ear canal is crucial for sound, as the bone conduction needs to, well, conduct the vibrations.

What I don't understand is, how does averysound.com make a custom earpiece for this, as the bone conduction microphone is molded into the eartip/device?

Here is what they do.. does anyone have one of these and how well does it work? does it actually make the sound louder so you dont have to pus on it to hear people? The one thing they tell me is you need to have a large enough ear to support this because of the bone conductor.. does anyone have a custom piece an can tell me what they think??

I now have the HX1 WITH the custom ear gel from AVERYSOUND.COM. its 100% better BUT I think its going to take time to get used to as it gives it a fuller fit and the gel blocks most outside sound from the ear. Also it makes your ear SWEAT and fell a little strange.. I am told they can put a HOFFMAN VENT in it.. does anyone know what this is??

Thanks.....

Does anyone know if this has A2DP and AVRCP profiles with it?
