Hello all
Has any one come across a pair of blue tooth in ear headphones that does not have a built in mic
So I can listen to the voice instructions from my sat nav and listen to music while riding my motor bike.
Cheers Jez
to answer my own question http://www.imc-motorcom.com/content/products.php?catalog=1_4&language=en these look like they are perfect

A long time ago I used to have a Nokia phone and bought a "Car Kit" which consisted of a new battery cover with belt clip, a car mount, and the speakephone base which even though it plugged into the cigarette lighter it still had a mic wire which I had to router behind the dashboard, up around the window and out just above the rear view mirror. The quality of this thing was amazing, I could hear people loud and clear and they could hear me perfectly over the loud noise that I get when driving my pathfinder.. Background noise is the biggest complaint I get from people I talk to when using wired headsets or bluetooth earpieces. I'm wondering if anyone can reccomend a good Bluetooth speakerphone device that I can use in my car? I prefer the portable type but professional kits are fine too. I don't mind spending extra on it if it's going to work and work well. I tried that Motorla visor clip speakerphone and it was awful.
I've seen some devices from Parrot, Anycom, and Jabra.. Does anyoe here have any experience with their speakerphone products? Are they any good?

I've had good results with the Sony MEX-BT5000 headunit and my Wizard. In addition to speakerphone, it also supports A2DP. Sony just announced the next generation unit (MEX-BT2500) which should also perform well.

Thanks for the info. Actually, I'm looking for something that's standalone or integrates with an existing car stereo, I'm not looking to replace my headunit as I've already invested and installed one with a DVD player/GPS Navigation system built in. Thanks anyway though!

Sony HCB-100 visor clip unit is great, not sure about integrating with your stereo though. I have steering controls so its easy to mute the stereo when a call comes through
Has anyone found a 2.5mm headset similar to the iPhone one? I want one that has a tiny in-line microphone (http://store.apple.com/Catalog/US/Images/hero-iphoneheadset.jpg). I listen to music on the train but I feel like a fool having the huge bulky microphone attached to my headset.
haven't checked it out but can't you use that one? or have you tried using a bt headset? i can play music through my bt headset just fine.
Playing music through BT would be a huge battery drain + huge hole in my wallet. I'm just looking for a headset that is 2.5mm with a thin microphone so it isn't too noticeable when I listen in public. I find the bulky microphone too distracting.
Please let me know if anyone is using this with HTC TP2... it supports A2DP .. so i guess it will work with tp2 ... but i just want to confirm before buying it

It should work, I have that same exact version sycned to my TP2.
Good luck.
hey dude.. is the effect and stuff's are good with this headset??... can you use em while you are traveeling in your motorcycle??...please check this post any such disturbances http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=652583 ??? please let me know...
You probably could use it when you ride your Motorcycle, although its really made for running, said from the designer of this bluetooth headset. It doesn't go straight into your ear but close enough where you hear the music and hear things surrounding you
The S9HD works perfectly with the TP2. I have both. I also ride a motorcycle, and would not recommend using them when riding. These are in ear phones that have a noise isolating effect reducing esxternal noise by some 20 - 30 dB, besides that not wearing a helmet so that you could listen to some tunes is also not a good idea... That's my 0.02...
I also have a pair of these and have no issues with the TP2. There are the occasional drop outs, especially when I go out doors. For the most part, they are good for listening to music and people that I am speaking to say I come across very clear.
As for riding a motorcycle, they will not fit under a helmet. If you are riding without a helmet, I doubt the silicone ear pieces will isolate so much noise that you wont be able to hear sirens, car horns or the like. But you will probably experience more dropouts than you'd like.
I'm looking for a good bluetooth headset for the gym and came across the sbh80. I've read a lot of reviews and my only concern is that the headset isn't loud enough and I like my music thumping.
Can someone with this headset give some feedback on the loudness.

The SBH80 sounds great and it isn't really loud, but is loud enough for a gym session. I really recommend it.
So i got the gear fit 2, and I like it. My main issue is that the bluetooth cuts when streaming music directly from it to my bluetooth headphones. I returned the fit and got another one and the new one does the same. I tried 2 different bluetooth headphones and it does the same with both. Both headphones work fine when streaming from my phone, so I think it's an issue with the gear fits in general. Any suggestions?
I found I have to wear the GF2 on my wrist that is on the same side as my headphone bluetooth receiver. With GF2 on left wrist and headphone bluetooth receiver in right ear, music would cut out anytime my body was between the two.
I find if I look turn my head to the LEFT/RIGHT while jogging, the music will cut out, and when I stare straight again the music will come back...=(
Eyes forward, and stop checking out the other runners...=)

I found the same works with my mee x7 phones. Sound works really well that way.
GF2 dropouts with jaybird x3
im also having audio dropouts between my gear fit 2 and wireless headphones.
my galaxy s7 has near perfect connection, in comparison the gear fits bluetooth connection is poor.
tried swapping wrists, near no difference.
this is really annoying, perhaps my gear fits bluetooth module is faulty, but i fear that this is standard...
