Nokia 9500 Bluetooth Headsets ?

Can anyone recommend Blue tooth headset/s ?

I am looking for something with a great amount of comfort/battery life/reception(Voice quality) as I am always using my headset.

I have been looking at the following so far...

Plantronics M3500 (As an import)
Nokia HS-4W
Nextlink Headsets ? (As an import)
Jabra BT800 (As an import)

I have heard only good things about the nextlink headsets. Can anyone comment ?

Thank you,

Hi QS,

I personally own something like the BSE-102 Series (from http://www.globalsources.com/gsol/I/Bluetooth-headset-manufacturers/b/2000000003844/3000000177540/22528/4.htm), which I got from KingCom (local distributor). It's model code is BTH-808 and its FCCID is RIDBTH-808 (made in Taiwan).

The best feature I like with this model is that you can recharge it via USB so even if you're on the go, you can just plug it to your laptop to extend your talk/stand-by time. Reception is up to 10 meters, though I successfully tested mine at 12 meters. Finally, based on my experience, it's quite comfortable to wear and it can be easily switched from left to right ear by just adjusting the ear clip.

Hope this helps.

I can highly recommend the Jabra BT250 -- battery life is long, which was the most important consideration. Phone syncs up easily with the headset, and I'm off talking for hours...

Best of luck,

Thank you for the replies.

I went ahead and purchased the BT800. It's awesome so far!

Thank you,
