Any reccomendations for a bluetooth headset?

its mainly going to be used for skype on my laptop.

i see the sonyerricson hbh600 seems pretty cheap on ebay?

I've used a Jabra for ages without any problems, with a vast range of Nokia phones.

I've got the HBH Colin. Very good quality but not as comfortable as the Jabra ones I have used.

Have you got a way to connect to Skype with it?? I'd be interested.

I used a sony hbh for 2 years with no probs. Currently usinh a samsung, equally as good, but half the size. Expansys is a good site to get them from too.

I got a plantronics one.

Similar to the jabra's, but very cheap from Maplins (25 quid), call quality and battery life is great.

I use a motorola HS850, tiny thing, very comfy and I get a week out of it in the car between charges. I am very happy with it.

i've got a motorola h500, very small & discreet, works well, with good battery life

I hear Jabra is the daddy in the BT Headset world currently. Charges give over 100 hours standby etc plus very good quality and comfort.

As I didn't get a reply to my question above I did some research myself and can confirm I have the HBH660 working very well with Skype.

Shame nobody answered the Skype bit -perhaps because nobody's using one like that?

I bet you still look like one of the Borg with it plugged in though!

Auto Express this week have 14 on test Plantronics Discovery 640 gets best buy at £50.18, Jabra BT500 is recomended at £49.95, Cable & Wireless CWBTH160PIN also gets 5 stars at £34.99 but it is PINK & they say that might put people off (it does me)

Does it include instructions on how to wear one walking down the street without looking like a pratt?

Sorry only just caught up

it really depends on the bluetooth stack on your laptop/bluetooth dongle. EG the full widcomm one. which allows it to be used as a audio passthru.

then it should show up as a valid audio device when its plugged in.

I had to source the widcomm drivers which seem to be hard to find, I found several sites reprting that they had been told to remove them.

Also got a trial going on with some software that integrates with Skype.
