I only have an ear bud now but I'm thinking I may want to go Star Trek like and get a bluetooth for cycling and for driving.

Which bluetooth headset do you have with your Inc or which bluetooth would you like to have?
 
BlueAnt Q1. Works well, New firmware supports Voice Navigation et all. Always been a bit low Volume for my liking, but sound quality is excellent. Comfortable and stays put OK. Reads caller ID's to you which is a personal taste issue for some.

Jawbone Prime. Works OK, I am not a fan of the JB design (I hate buttons that aren't really buttons. Sound is LOUD but a bit metallic (much like other Jawbones. ) I haven't tried the newest one. This is my back-up/loud environment headset.

And I have a drawer full of Plantronic Voyagers. My favorite headset of all time. Comfortable, loud and clear and almost impossible to to knock off your ear (even with glasses). Unfortunately they suck at multipairing and are a bit, err oversized for 2010 LOL. I haven't tried to pair them with the Inc, but I don't imagine there would be any issues.
 
Hold out for the new Blueant T1.... they are even working on a app for the droid... check out the headset on their website... should be the sh*t
 
Plantronics Voyager 510. Paid $40 on Amazon and it works flawlessly. I'm told I sound better on the bluetooth than while holding the Dinc.
 
I ordered the Nokia BH-503 stereo BT headset. I plan to use it for when I go cycling. I wanted something without noise cancellation for obvious reasons. This headset seemed to get the least negative reviews. Should have it this weekend.

Agreed. I've tried about half a dozen BT headsets, and I always go back to my trusty 510. I get about one per year (I beat them up pretty good).

I have had jawbones before, but the new icon is incredible, especially when you can download apps onto the head set. I changed my voice to the sexy bombshell's voice and downloaded A2DP so know all youtube and movie trailers play through the icon, as well as music, but i go with wire for that.
 
Using the Jawbone II for my 12 hour shifts and the MOTORKR T505 for the car. I tried the Invisio but the battery only allows about 10 minutes of talk time and the flashing light cannot be turned off.
 
Plantronics Voyager Pro. I can wear it all day without ear fatigue or discomfort. Best Bluetooth I have ever had.
 
I returned my bluetooth last week after realizing you can't do VOICE DIAL on it. What a joke, as I need it to voice dial numbers when driving rather than messing with the handset. This has been an issue with Droid OS from what I understand.

I hope it will be a part of some fix down the road...
 
Blueant Q1...
With latest firmware and Blueant Android App installed,
This Bluetooth device READS your text messages word for word to you.
Fantastic feature when driving! I personally dont care for txting while driving....Until I met this headset...

Combine this feature with Android's Voice To Text,
Texting while driving isn't such a safety concern anymore! ;)
Very nice headset.
Also recommend Blueant's upcoming T1 headset as well.
Stay safe while driving!
 
Jawbone Icon, 'The Thinker' variant and it works great. The only feature I would really like to have would be voice dialing through it.

It's a current limitation of the Android OS.

I noticed a June release date for this so I will probably wait and see what its like. Can anyone tell me briefly why Q1 model > V1 model, or at least more popular?

Has anyone tried the new Moto H17txt?
 
Plantronics 975. Works great, and I love the charging case that comes with it. It's good for 3 charges and keeps me from having to take the unit into the house to charge every few days. You simply take that case in and charge it up every few weeks and you can then charge the earpiece while on the road.
