    I have a Moto Razr and a BB 8120 (maybe exchange for a Curve). Is there a headset that I can use simultaneously with the two phones? In other words, pair it with both so that if either phone rings, the headset will answer it?

    One step beyond, being able to answer calls while on one when the other rings woul;d be a bonus, but just having one headset to wear is the key.


    Thanks

    We've discussed this here before. AFAIK there are no BT models that are capable of this.

    sorry, lemme correct myself. most of the Jabras can be synched with 2 different phones. but you cannot call on both phones, its either one or the other.

    I think the headsets can store pairing information with up to 7 devices (so you don't have to go through the entire pairing sequence), but only one connection can be active at any given time.

    Plantronics Voyager 510 will do the trick. You can not hold a conversation on two devices simultaneously as Jay has already pointed out, and if you're talking on one and answer another you'll need to use the phone controls to place the device on hold. They call it Multi-Point technology. Read the details here.

    Thanks. I checked their site and apparently the Voyager 510, 520 and n815 all have Multi Point Technology.

    In another forum, I was told the Motorola 710 will pair with two phones. Has anyone used one?

    I recently ordered the Plantronics Voyager 510 to use with two of my phones. I'm curious to see how the Multi-Point technology works. Got a good deal from Amazon. :)

    Once I get a chance to really test it out, you can bet I'll post a review! ;)

    In this day and age it's not uncommon for people to have multiple phones. Sometimes it's one for business, the other personal.

    Having the ability to switch between calls on two phones with one bluetooth headset is a helpful and convenient feature.
