    What he said. Don't waste your money on anything else. I've had my 250XT ~5 years. I bought three others and then I eventually had to buy the Blue Parrot anyway so trying to save money only cost me.

    I have to agree bought the blue parrot 350 and it's best one I have had...I have used blue tiger elite, and the voyager legend as well as a few cheaper ones and blue parrots has been the best

    Another vote for the BlueParrot. In my opinion, just about any full headset type is better than those in-ear thingies, but that one is VERY good.

    I agree with Cheap. I bought a Blue Parrot online, $79. It's the most awesome handsfree device I've ever owned. Noise cancellation is incredible. Even with a window or two open, truck working hard, no problem with audio clarity. Sound quality is perfect, next seat clarity. In addition to these useful and practical considerations, the battery life is unbelievable. I sometimes forget it needs to charge, after 5 or 6 days go by. My $.02.

    If you don't want something so big look at plantronics. Voyager Edge is excellent on all counts.

    Before I used both the Plantronics Voyager and Blue Parrot and had good luck with both. Now I use the built in Bluetooth speaker phone in the Volvo radio. The newer system integrates with the contacts so it shows the name as well as the number in the Driver Information display on the instrument cluster. Pretty nifty.
