I tires the Nokia H801 and that was good but opted for the Smasung becuase of comfort.
I was looking at the same Nokia but might give this one a try.

Default Re: Bluetooth headset recommendations.

I got the Jabra BT8010 on Monday as a warranty replacement for my BT350V, which didn't power on. I liked the 350; it was comfortable to wear... never noticed it was there. The 8010 is a small pain since it has a notch(?) in the earbud... I haven't learned how to position the device on/in my ear yet. I really love the display on it... having the battery meter on the device makes sense. I found out that the device is stereo capable, so I'll have to buy the accessory next week to test it out. The 8010 is truly an upgrade to the 350... i'm glad I wont have to pay an arm and a leg for stereo bluetooth! Also, I get flexibility between mono and stereo.

AFAIK the H700C is the newest version of that bluetooth headset. The upgrade to the H700 would be the H800. Motorola H800 Bluetooth Headset : Specs, reviews and prices.

Sorry Jack, AFAIK just means "As Far As I Know". There are now 3 versions of the H700, with "C" being the latest version.
Here is a listing that I found on eBay for the Motorola H700C version : eBay Express: OEM BRAND NEW H700 700 by Motorola ~ NEW VERSION ~ - Description

Thanks for posting this Ellen. This is important for anyone interested in the H700. There are quite a few counterfeit headsets out there.

I recommend the Jawbone. Looks good. Sounds great. I bought it to replace my H500, which took a Dr. Pepper bath.

Do any other Bluetooth headsets have the Mini USB charger port or is that exclusive to Motorola? If not what is the best headset which has the Mini USB port?

I am partial to the Motorola headsets myself. In my experience they have long range and are quite clear. I hear they don't work well with Treo's though.

Not sure if I understand your question, but the Jawbone has a 2-part charger. Put both together and its a wall plug. Pull it apart and you can charge via USB.

I know the Motorola 820 headset has the Mini USB port it uses for the charger to plug in to. I was wondering if there were any other headsets that also utilize the Mini USB? It's kinda nice only having to tote around one charger for both the Razr and the headset.

The HS820 does not use the mini USB charger. It uses the same charger as the Motorola V series phones such as the V300, V400, V600, V551.

I can say that the Samsung WEP 500 is here to stay. I used it durring a 6 hour drive and I never felt that it was in my ear. None of the other headsets ever felt that comfortable. A Nokia 801 user told me to stick with the wep 500 as he said it was not comfortable for long term wear and that call quality is about the same but the Samsung has noise cancelation. Another one that seems that many are recommending now is the Appple BT headset, but at $129 it is not cheap and most of the price goes for the dock that it comes with. I wish Apple sold it as a stand alone without the base. So far FAN discounts are not allowed on Apple products and because of that the WEP 500 ended up costing me just under $100.
