I have an awesome BLUETOOTH!

Plantronics 510

Great noise reduction when driving truck and working on the dock.

I have tried so many different ones, this is the best for me.

Thats the one that hubby uses too. He loves it, and they back up the warranty, because his batteries didn't hold a charge for long, after 5 months use, I went on their web site, filled out a form, they sent a new one, and I shipped the old one back to them. This one seems to be working fine, now.

I think that the other one just had old batteries in it or something.

Its been a real lifesaver for hubby, he wouldn't drive without one now. LOL

YEP, at one time I had numerous bluetooths around here and didn't like any of them.
Right now my battery is doing fine, so that's good anyway.

Iam just happy I can hear with all the noise around me....lol

Oh yeah, some of the 12v chargers are a joke! We don't use them anymore either. Even though they come with the "kit", we just park them in a drawer. My phone will keep a charge for almost two weeks when fully charged. Its outdated, for sure, but man, I hate to switch, because of the battery life.
This is a old thread. But I throw 2 cents in, just in case you haven't upgraded your phone yet.

I just recently picked up an LG Shine. I read the reviews on it, and all the kids were bi**** about the battery wouldn't hold a charge for more than one day.

I have have a teenage daughter, so I know the drill. They talk 24/7 on the things.

BUT, I can go 4-6 days with mine. With moderate use. All the screen settings are set to high, and I have the backlight set to 1 minute. I'm sure it would last at least another full day or 2 if I reduced these settings.

That's not 2 weeks I know. But it beats the &^^% out of the "less than 4 hours" I had from my Razr.

I hate to pee in your Corn Flakes, but you may want to check with the folks at Jawbone to make sure n1wireless is an authorized dealer....if not, you are taking a VERY good chance that the unit you get is a very well packaged Knock off and not a real product. This problem is HUGE in the industry. To the untrained eye, you would never know, until you use it and are less than satisfied with the results. Now, if it IS a real Jawbone, congrats!! Great Deal!! you will love it.

Return policy is fairly liberal. And, cancelling payment on a CC isn't that difficult if it's not the real deal.

You're not required to actually pay for "substitute" products. The law is fairly clear on that.
