    good luck with that, not that this stupid law is passed, the prices went up. This thing used to be $79 on sale all the time, now they are $99 and never on sale :biggrin_25513:

    Blue Parrotts suck. They are the hardest headset ive ever owned to pair. They love to come unpaired randomly. Best advice I can give you. Never turn it off, and never separate it from your phone.

    I honestly think thats why you see so many truckers eating diner with them on their head. They know theyve got a snowballs chance in hell of getting it to pair again.

    you have a smart phone? pairs right back up on my t-bolt once I come back into range. On the rare occasion it doesn't I just push the big button once on the headset and it works again.

    Ya, my last two phones have both been android/smart phones. i dunno what the deal is. Maybe its my fat fingers and that stupid multi function button. I just dont get along with them. My neighbor called me with the same problem a while back. Took him days to get it to re connect lol

    Have them swing through Wichita, they can have mine for free. I hate the #### thing, they can have my other one too (I forget the name) big dawg or blue tiger, hell i dunno. Looks just like a blueparrott

    I think its actually this one. Theyve got a pretty good deal going on these. Even though there about $100 they have a 100% warranty on them. You can have them replaced x2 in a one year period for any reason. The only catch? You have to return it to their kiosk at the truck stop. They have about 5 or 6 of their kiosks over the US.

    The specific one I have lets you record two minutes of your phone conversation. Which is kinda cool if your listening to a recording of receiver directions. Just hit record and you can replay it over and over.

    I think ill stick with my Plantronics Voyager Pro. Not quite as loud as Parrots, but its good enough.
