Success with bluetooth handsfree? — Nokia 7610 and 6670

Hi Guys and Gals

Anybody has success story with any bluettoth handsfree and Nokia 7610?

For my case, it is:

Good:
Nokia HS-3W

Bad:
Sony Ericsson HBH-600
- the handsfree doesn't disconnect if the party on the other line hung up before me. 😞 The hissing sound is very loud and obvious, not to mention that it drains battery that way.

Please share. Thanks.

i am using NOKIA HDW-2
it is working perfectly fine.
i am more satisfy with 7610 rather then 6600

I had a HDW-2 and promptly ditched it as I got annoyed having to switch on the little on-off button with big fingers, and u have to hold it down for 2 seconds.

I then swapped to the Motorola flip open jobby and SOOOO much better, you dont even have to leave it on (as you flip it open to switch on, connect it and answer the call automatically!) and so the battery life lasts for weeks if u dont take many calls like me. Miles better.

Hope this helps.

I got a bluetrek 1.2 a year ago for $12 in the States. I got it working fine with the 7610. It even plays my custom ringtone when I get a call. Not sure if the same deal can still be had but, if it can, I highly recommend it.

Sure! See here: http://www.bluetrek.com/index.htm. Their tech support is very responsive. They usually get back to me within 24 hours.

Edit: If you mean a link for the rebate, it has long since expired. They were offering a $60 rebate at buy.com and anotehr general rebate/coupon for $25 so the final price came out to $12. Great deal. Keep an eye on these sites for other great deals in the US though.

http://www.techbargains.com/ <-this was where the rebate was posted a year and a half ago
http://www.fatwallet.com/ <-this site is only ok but their forums are quite active

http://www.goldlantern.com/index.html <-This is the site of the company that paid the $60 rebate. They were offering the rebate through all the major retail web channels.
