I never focused my website's PR, though I should do it! I am more bright at this time and I use seo issues of blog directory submission service and my site gets better. Thus, I recommend everybody doing that!

headsets and music

Is there any software that can send music to my headset? I'd appreciate that often

Sony Ericsson / Akono HBH-300

I've tried 6 different bluetooth headsets over the last year.

All appeared to have been designed with chiefly with aesthetics in mind and minimally with audio quality in mind. And although batter life has been steadily improving, the audio quality has not advanced quite as fast.

I ordered a Plantronics BT2500 along with my new Treo 650 in early February 2005. At first I was pleased with the audio quality of the BT2500 until I tried it in a noisey environment. I discovered that the BT2500 has absolutely no noise cancelling capability. In fact I noticed that not only is the microphone not close enough to my mouth, but it actually angles AWAY from my lips rather than toward them. In effect the microphone on the BT2500 picks up far more background noise than it does my own voice. So, while the BT2500 was better than any other headset tried to date, it still failed to be adequate enough for my needs.

I spent a lot of my free-time over the last several weeks researching a replacement for the BT2500. I decided that the ideal design would likely involve a boom long enough to get very close to my mouth and a pair of microphones with one aimed toward my mouth and another aimed away (e.g. toward the background noise). The reason for a dual mic inside/outside design is to support a simple noise canceling circuit to determine the delta between the two mics and amplify my voice without the background noise.

Secondary to audio quality would be long battery life, comfort, durability, ease-of-use, aesthetics.

Viola. The solution came in the form of the Sony Ericsson / Akono HBH-300. It has a long boom (about 1.75" longer than that of the Plantronics BT2500) and it has the two mic (inside/outside) noise canceling feature that I desired. It also has 5+ hours of talk time (box says 10 hours, but nobody believes that).

The HBH-300 is easy to use. It has two drawbacks.

1) The HBH-300 with the Treo 650 doesn't automatically pick up for outbound calls -- not a major loss since 2/3 times the BT2500 failed to complete its attempts to pick up on outbound. I find it NO major inconvenience to push the headset button to activate the HBH-300 for outbound calls. I can do it before or after I initiate the call.

2) In windy environments the noise cancelling dual mic on the HBH-300 is partially defeated. People can still hear me well enough, but sometimes complain about the loudness of the "white noise."

I was able to significantly reduce the effects of wind by fitting a foam windscreen over the HBH-300 mic. I got the foam windscreen from a cheap wired headset (with wires that I had worn out so was no good anyway).

I also picked up a set of Jabra EarGels (3 sizes for each ear). The EarGels are certainly not REQUIRED, but I found that even though they are not designed for the HBH-300 they do stay in place with a little coaxing and dramatically improve my ability to hear clearly with the HBH-300 in excessively noisey environments. I tested this at a conference in a huge auditorium with thousands of people yelling at the top of their lungs loud music on par with your average rock concert. People told me that they had NO TROUBLE hearing me and could barely hear the background noise. HOWEVER, they did complain that I was talking way too loud so they had to turn down their volume. The background noise was so loud that I had to speak very loudly just to hear my own voice and yet the other party could barely hear the background noise. How sweet is that? The eargel mainly helps to block some of the background noise from entering my ear so that I don't have to talk so loudly to hear myself.

Maybe I would never need the EarGels if palmOne would get around releasing a firmware patch that sufficiently boots the volume.

Motorola HS850

I bought this for my 650 and it was easy to set up, eight hours talk time, very compact. It is slightly fussy getting a nice fit over the ear, but only a few seconds to get comfortable using one hand (ok to do while driving). I only use in the car. I got frustrated with earpiece wires getting hooked around the gearshift or hand brake, so this is a real relief.

The biggest problem is it seems that calls may connect before the BT links up (but not always).

Gold Lantern

I like the Gold Lantern MultiTalk. It plugs into your car lighter socket and has a BT speakerphone. The headset is detachable from that. Sound quality is OK too.

My BT Headset

I use the Bluetrek G2 and love it. Have you tried out the Bluetrek? I considered it to be better then the Jabra
