(i posted this in the Wizard forums but i just wanted to inform as many peeps as possible, since the headphones that are like the ones below have gotten positive revies from alot of people
I know alot of you used the Sony DR-BT10NX but have ya seen the 20x model>? It combines the playback features along with the 11 hour play time!!! I was unable to order them form amazon uk to the USA but i remember a site called audio cubes where i used to get my sony MDR earbuds aloong time ago.. anyways...they have it and i just ordered a pair. they come in white or black. I just bought them for $117.90 USD . Check them out!! I think i am in heaven!!! I was torn between the SOny Ericsson DS970 and the DR-BT10NX which has only volume keys. Do i want playback time or audio controls? This one is both!!!!! Just a tip... buy them with an AMex card to get a 2 year warranty
Check em and tell me what ya think

alright......
i finally got my headphones...only used them a few minutes but so far they are awesome. they have a very good range,
they are decently loud (about the same as the Sony Ericson Ones) and the sound is very clear and they have alot of bass!!!!!
so far i am loving these headphones.
the call quality is pretty good considering the mic is in the middle of the main unit. i wouldnt recommend walking outside and using the mic while is on your chest. the wind is going to make it sound horrible. but if you lift it up it will sound good.
as far as the incoming audio for calls.it also sounds very good!
So far i noticed though i can only get the commands on the FF or Rewind/play stop to only work with the windows media player and not with the Core Media player. Also sometimes ive gotten the thing that the audio cuts off for a bit but i think its more of an issue with the pocket pc. it cuts alot even when i use headphones, depending on what is running in the background.
The main "unit" its pretty chunky. Its like the DR-BT20NX. The cable that goes around your neck is very strong and it has a side that snaps if the cord is pulled very hard(the right) and the left side has a piece that you can twist to open the cable like a necklace.
it also comes with its own charging stand which looks cool on the desk
i am using farias wm5 rom with the 8mb pool. and the cingular leaked radio rom
I added some pictures for everyone to see..... check em out
I was missing the extra earbuds and the little plastic capsule that holds the eardbuds to protect it... but in a nut shell.. heres what this beauty looks like..............

I have the Sony-Ericsson HBH-DS970's
I think they main unit is smaller, plus it has a caller id display, which is nice, and the microphone is close to the right earpiece, and the left earpiece has a call/end button, which is also nice. Earphones seem similar on each set. Mine work fine with stereo music and with Voice Command.

Thanks for the posting and the photos.
It looks like this is my next headset which I'll get as soon as I get my money back for the very 'odd' Plantronics Pulsar 260 with a 43" cable lenth.
Thanks again!

I've bought from them a couple of times before. Received my order every time, although the items do take up to a week to arrive! I've ordered a Sony DR-BT30Q (also available on that site for the same price)!

Thank you for information. Are you in UK or on continent?
Do you happen to know what color of BT30Q (black or silver) they sell ?
I'm in the UK. No idea what colour either, but on Sony's site its recommended retail is £99.01! Seemed like too good a deal to pass on!!

I've bought from them a few times, I always recommend them to people at work ( i work in mobile retail ) they have near ebay prices for mem cards, i think they are on Isle of Man or something like that....
I just got a set of these for my Cingular 8125. They work better than expected! I'm really glad I picked them up. Thanks for the heads up on a nice set of bluetooth stereo earbuds. All functions work and sound quality is great for me!
I'm really glad I got a 4gb miniSD card now!

When I ordered through Amazon, it took me to mymemory.co.uk and for the black model (which was advertised on Amazon). Having said that the order is still "pending" and not yet shipped. How long does it normally take these guys to ship?

I got my DR-BT30QB today and they've worked pretty well so far. The only wierd thing is I've had a little popping problem that occurs once in a while. I'm using an XDA Mini S with Xplore 1.1 ROM. I also have a Dell notebook using the Toshiba stack. I got the popping earlier when I was playing games on my notebook and also had the phone paired to the headphones as well.
Maybe I paired using the wrong profile? But so far, these headphones are nice and I think I can get by with wearing them for long periods of time.
[copy from wizard accessories forum]
Nice to heard useful info like this.
But I dunno whether it will works with my ETEN M600 ROM WWE230. I've tried Sony Ericsson HBH DS970 but the music will not resume after incoming call, then losing the pair, and I have to re-pair everytime.
The only working and good Stereo BT for my ETEN is iTech S35. But it does not have AVRCP. Besides, i'd prefer that pendant necklace design of BT20NX (and SE HBH DS970, has anyone realize they both share some design principle? )than clip-on-shirt approach from iTech.
Anyone can give suggestion?
Ok, forgot my question about ETEN compatibility.
Has anyone also tried Philips SHB7100/27 (Stereo A2DP with AVRCP)? It's quite new i guess.

Try the motorola s9 stereo blue tooth headsets. I know they are expensive and all, but they are pretty decent looking for a stereo bluetooth headset, most of which are have been pretty ugly so far. Here are the reviews. I am planning to buy one myself.
http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-MOTO...6208?ie=UTF8&s=wireless&qid=1182306778&sr=8-1
I know you might not be looking for wireless headset but I think they will become very popular in near future, given that most mp3 phones now support that a2dp functionality. Anyway thats my 2 c.
I don't know, but what do you people think of this one?
http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.4301
The site also has many other OEM bluetooth, if you're looking, but I wonder about this headset.
Edit: yea, i stupidly bought it, tell u it doesn't work, cause of 11 pin usb.

Hello. Unfortunately this type of headset (with mini usb) does not work with Prophet. I tried with a RAZR adapter and no sound... The link also does not included Dopod 818 (aka Prophet).
My recomendation is Jabra BT620s http://cgi.ebay.com/New-OEM-Jabra-Handsfree-Bluetooth-Stereo-Headset-BT620s_W0QQitemZ140151107677QQihZ004QQcategoryZ133228QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
This is a BT Headset, the sound is very good and work fine with Propert.
I've this one and recomended.
See you.
Anyone know good ones that i can buy online, with wire.
Stereo headset
I did a lot of looking around before I bought my headset, and in the end chose the Plantronics Pulsar 590a. It kicks ass! It comes with a REALLY nice case, a headphone jack bluetooth transmitter (for your cassette walkman), an extra microphone extention arm, an inflight cable for use without Bluetooth, a wall and USB charger and a nice desktop stand.
Performance with the Prophet is great. If I'm listening to music and a call comes in, it switches over to Hands-free mode and I can touch the phone button on the earpiece to answer. After the call is over, the music comes back automatically. The earpiece remote also allows for voice-dail, switching tracks and mute/volume adjustment.
I did manage to fry mine by trying to charge it with the USB charger cable plugged into a car cigarette lighter style USB adapter. After that they would no longer charge. I didn't want to deal with the company I bought them from, so I called Plantronics direct. They wanted a scanned copy of the recipt, and when I sent it, I recieved an answer which said that a new unit has been shipped, and to please dispose of the old one. 2 days later I had my new headphones! Now that's service!
The only other complaint that I have with the product is the blue light on the earpiece. It kind of draws a lot of attention, but I love them! Best headset I ever owned!
Mine is a Dell BH200.. works fine..
expansys.com have tons of converters so one can use any 3.5mm minijack headsets
though not with mic i think
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Motorola-MO...8?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1194653052&sr=8-1
this one seems insanely cheap not sure if it's good or even works with htc pdas but cheap
i use a coverter so i can use ordanery headphones for music, not to bothered about using it for calls
pairing bt headset for music
hi. I need help. Have bought a cheepo BSH01 BT stereo headset. Looks fine and works perfectly with calls. Can't get it to work with music though. Any clues? I have a O2 converted to PM300 WM5 (ROM 2.13.9.21 ITA radio 02.07.20). Something to do with a2dp? any player that I might use instead of wmp?
Thanks

Jabra BT620s
About 60 euro's here in the netherlands. Great piece of headset Good quality audio, has buttons to control the mediaplayer (WMP as well as the HTC Audiomanager work ) and can offcourse accept calls and control voice command.
what about sony ericsson HBH-DS970 ?
thx
well I am answering my own post, ,
the working features are,
1. smooth A2DP (skipping in case of high proc. usage e.g. wifi brosin and stereo bt music simultanous)
2. after a call music resumes and in the earphone.
3. AVRCP
4. Caller ID ! u can see both the name & the number on the lcd ( with jetware ).
regards
I'll have the Jabra BT620s in the mail today... I'll post a review asap.
Jabra BT headphone
As promised;
I got the Jabra headset yesterday, and last night I was able to try it. First of all, sound quality is better than expected. Setup was somewhat confusing, since the manual is not so clear. But, I managed. Made a couple of phonecalls, all fine. Overall, nice set of headphones. Luckily, the flashing blue leds can be turned off.
Hi
I use the Anycom BSH-100. The Headset is not bad at all, with HS/HF/A2DP/ AVRRCP and a up to 200 h standby + upto 12 h music playtime.
Tech data here: http://www.anycom.com/products/bluetooth_audio_video/stereo_headset_bsh_100/?id=102&partno=CC3300
There is no buildin Microphone. A small (about 3 cm) mic is attacht to the side mini usb-jack. This mini usb-jack is also used to charge the batteries. Most of the time i forgett the mic, when charging the Headset, so i use the Headset often to listen to mp3s and recive calls without using the headset. ( a bild in Mic would be better) The headset goes to mute when a call comes in.
picture here: http://files.anycom.com/images/products/lifestyle/cc3300_lifestyle_01.jpg
+ (plus):
Handling is very easy.
Long Standby & playtime
small transport size (faltable)
- (minus):
seperate Mic
Sound Quality is OK but not as good as a normal wired-headset. (maybe normal for BT)
no option to turn of the flashing blue led
best regards Oliver
Hi, Anyone using Jabra Bt320 with the Touch? I tired to connect for stereo headset but its fails. I had the same problem with Dopod 810 but some after making some changes in the registry the problem was solved. I tired the same tweaks in Touch but it fails. Any suggestion from the forum? Thanks
I used the BT320
and the stereo was fine. I also made the adjustments to the registry and it carried on working fine.
However, I sent the unit back because I bought a Jabra 120s with it and found that, after initial pairing problems (which went away), there was an audio lag which made watching TV rubbish!
When you pair with the BT320s, you should have the option to use it as either
1. a hands-free or
2. wireless stereo.
If you don't, delete the device from your Touch then...
...plug the BT320s into it's charger, three times, for 4 seconds each time.
Now pair again and the option for wireless stereo will magically appear.
Try Motorola S9. Nice and solid. Matches Touch design too.

You get what you pay for comes to mind with BT headsets.
I have yet to come across one headset that plays great stereo sound
and gives you great call quality. However, for stereo sound the Motorola
S9 kicks arse over anything out there and the Jawbone does the voice
calls better than anyone out there. S9 is around $100US and the Jawbone
is $130US ish. Not cheap but you won't be looking to replace them because
they don't do their job. Now if you have a big melon the S9 maybe a problem.
AE!
Hi.
I got the HT820 from Mototola.
Sound is good.
Easy installation on Touch.
Noise cancelling.
Looks a little bit spacy but fits good.
AND I payed 12€ for it on ebay.de.
I use BT320s
Hi,
I am using Jabra BT320s, It just works fine with my Touch. I did the in pairing initially, but after I upgraded with latest firmware I don't have any problem in pairing.
firmware can be found here
http://rapidshare.com/files/51865424/JabraBT320swebupdate_1077.zip
Please read the instruction to update the firmware
Well i got the Motorola BT820 last week, very satisfied
great sound nice volume, little weakness but accepteble by my standard
when theres a lot of static noise the build in mic does piick up on that a bit.
i use it for mp3 mostly, and o yeah its comfortoble too
price is nice if i compare to other headsets,
still thinking about trying the new logitech headset
is there anybody who has experienced it
I have posted a question regarding a small problem with the Bb20s right here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=326489
This is a description of my problem, as posted. Does anyone have an idea?
---
Received my Jabra 620s yesterday. First impressions: it is quite big and heavy, but it is better than earplugs ;-) Sounds quality is quite good.
Here is my problem: After pairing the headset with my device, everything behaves as expected until some event (this happend on multiple occasions, different trigger but the same result): the headset controls still function (i.e. I can skip songs etc), but the HTCs audio is routed to the HTC speaker instead of the headset. I cannot fix this, the only way is to remove the bluetooth connection, repair and I am good to go again.
I'd second the comment on the Motorola S9. I got the S9 to go with my old magician, but now that I've upgraded to the Touch, things are even better.
The S9 workd flawlessly for stereo music and also as a regular hands free headset. I can't tell you how many times I've been out jogging, litening to music and I get a cal from people. They say the call sound quality is good, but always wonder why I'm breaking fast.
I hve changed to HTC BH S100 (in-ear is better for jogging)
sound quality is good, no problems...yeah should be no problems when using HTC stuff only ;-)
i found the Motorola S9s to be outstanding. I have never been so happy with a BT headet.
Sony DR-BT30 Q
Got it for 34 euro's and they make me happy.
Good reach on the touch compared to my wizard
Hi,
I am looking for a bluetooth stereo headset that supports A2DP, has CLI and works fine (compatible) with Artemis ( p3300).
The SE hbh-ds980 fits my bill, but I am facing problems with it( mic vol. on headset too low; opp. party can barely hear me). The other two headsets i found so far are SE hbh-ds970 and Nokia hs-12w. Is any1 here using the above mentioned headsets with no problem?
Thanks in advance!~
Hi,
I`m using a Jabra BT620 A2DP headset on my MDA Compact III, works fine!
thanks for the suggestion emiletelkamp...Any more inputs?
bump....
I use the Nokia HS-12W which has fairly good quality audio, but seems to need the PDA to be very close to it to work without skipping.
I usually clip the "body" of the HS-12W to the front of my shirt then put my Artemis (running WM6) in my shirt pocket - Works like a charm that way!
It doesn't natively support CLI, but I believe JetwareMobile can enable this, but I haven't tried it.
I've looked around and there are a few good stereo (earbud) headsets on the market. I also wanted to use my psp through bluetooth also(with the aid of the Ever-E A377 dongle).
My search narrowed down to:
Jabra BT320
Sony HBH DS970 or the 980
The Sony's seem to be the best two alternatives, and have had good reviews.
I'm probably going to go with the 970 as i wouldn't mind being able to control my music from both devices via AVRCP.
I'll get it at the end of the month and see how i do.
DS980 is a lot better than 970, so it does worth the money diffrence.
I couldn't see any features on the 980 that were better, i just put it down to one being silver and one being black.
I'll do some more research.
Cheers!
It's battery lasts 4-5 hours, wich is one hour longer than the battery life of ds970. It has a better and faster software. You can acces your call register(and the phone book also but i couldn't get it work yet).
Sorry to get slightly off topic but I have just bought a Jabra BT320 after reading this and other posts and cant seem to get the stereo (music) to work.
It just plays through the phone speaker, not the headphones, but the handsfree side of it seems to work.
Can anyone help me with this one please?

Its an nice one just bought it. Didn't get the phonebook to work either have you found a solution yet?
By the way how did you get the track playing in your display?
Motorola H820s
They're around 15UKP on Amazon, they sound great, they charge off USB and the battery lasts for ever, and they have AVRC buttons too. Work great with my Wizard, Artemis, Macbook Pro under Leopard, Belkin Tunestage, etc etc - can pair to 8 different devices too.
ds980
The ds980 works like a charm.
To bad the microsoft bluetooth stack is rubbish so don't expect the track titles and phonebook to show up.
Call history and caller id work!
After some research I found out track titles aren't showing due the lack of the latest Audio/Video Remote Control Profile (AVRCP) version in our phone.
The phonebook only works if Phone Book Access Profile (PBAP) is installed on our phones...
Now lets hope there is some wizzard who can help us with this.
I've just upgraded from my HTC Kaiser (which I loved) to a HTC Rhodium (which I love even more plus it was free on Vodaphone on £30 per month contract) yesterday but I took her out in the car today to see what the Audio streaming was like compared to my old Kaiser over bluetooth to my Sony MEX-BT2500 Head unit.
Unfortunately the audio coming through was very what I can only describe as being "scratchy" and every few seconds the music kept cutting out for about 2 seconds and then playing again.
I usually have my Kaiser plugged into a Brodit Active card holder (as it charges it at the same time) and im waiting for delivery of the Brodit Active for the Rhodium so im not sure if the phone being on charge will help at all.
Anyone else getting really bad (to the point of being annoyingly unlistenable) audio over bluetooth.
Check out the cab files sticky, there is at least one ref there to a reg edit to improve Bluetooth audio.
Gordon
Cheers,
Yup one of the fixes made it LOT better just need to work out how to stop the media player stopping when the screen goes off now (or how to stop the screen going off) and finding the app name for the mediaplayer so I can add it as an exception into slide 2 unock
