Bluetooth Handsfree Cell Phone Speaker

[McParty]

So has anyone used one of these yet??? The Market Place has a couple. Blueant and Parrot both make one. I like the idea of this better so I don't have to use an ear piece.

Anyone? Surely someone has bought one of these?

I have a Parrot one. LOVE it. It's a little big, though... The battery life is incredible. And sound quality is awesome and crisp and loud. I would say, though, if I were in the market today, I'd be looking at the ones that use your car's stereo system to transmit the sound. Seems like that could be a lot nicer than any speaker. I think Jabra makes a nice slim one that does this.

I can vouch for the BlueAnt - I installed one for my father and he loves it - SQ is good.. I have a BluleAnt Z9i earpiece and it is also very very good compared to what I expected.

Please try to keep in mind however, that the sound reduction technology is just not there yet.. So whether you get a blueant Z or a Jawbone2.. you're paying a premium for a technology that is lacking.

As for sound reduction on the Parrot: it sounds crystal clear on my end, and people tell me it sounds great on their end, too, even while traveling full speed. My 4 y.o. daughter likes to talk to Mommy on it, so sometimes when we're driving, we'll call her up. My wife hears her great, even though she's 4, and in the backseat, and we're driving. So it's good.

It's the first and only bluetooth handsfree device I've ever used, so I can't compare to anything else.

Great Feedback.... Thanks!! Do you know which models you guys installed??

Has anyone else tried one of these?

The wife got me a Blue Ant3, but I am having trouble sending my contact list to the device. Any Ideas?? It's supposed to do it after I connect but it says the phone doesn't support that part.
