Yes, several people did purchase it because they wrote me to ask for my
notes on how the controls were laid out, and for my text copy of the user
guide.

After this headset received publicity on the list, did anyone purchase it
since? If so, are there any other opinions about it?

They’re ear-buds; that is, there’s a button mushroom hard plastic piece
which holds the speaker, and then there’s a silicon rubber tip which you
slide into your ear. It’s soft and comfortable, and you just push it in
until it’s far enough to hold itself (so, nothing like Apple ear buds is
what I’m saying). They give you a medium and a small set of tips.
I usually take cell calls, and work with Siri, with just one inserted, and
only use both when I’m listening to music.

Hi,
It sits very loosely and lightly on your shoulders, and does not touch your
neck, and so causes no sweat or discomfort.
I was employed at the time my wife picked it out, and she did so because it
looks very professional (I have since retired); she liked the look of it far
more than one which sits in your ear, or the bone conduction ones which sit
on your head. It's not completely invisible (you cannot cover it up with a
shirt collar when you are actually talking on it because you'd be covering
the microphone), but she says it's hardly noticable. She says even if you
wear a tie she's seen plenty of people dressed like that wearing these types
of collar headsets.
We both believe that bluetooth headsets are acceptible parts of business
dress these days, but this is the most minimal headset we know of.
Also, I forgot to mention if you lay down your phone and forget it and start
to walk off, the headset will begin vibrating as you walk out of range,
keeping you from forgetting your phone. Of course, you can turn off the
audible ringer on the phone, and have the headset just vibrate when a call
comes in. It can vibrate in different patterns, so you can tell a text from
a call from a special pattern you've assigned to certain contacts.
I've had it now for about six months, and I still like it as much as when I
first purchased it.

Hi chip is that headset be connected to two devices at the same time?
and what about its capacity to handle neck sweat, as during summer its
too much humidity in my area. and tell me about its noticeable part,
mean can I use this headset in my professional life, mean in the
official meetings etc? mean will it go unnoticed when not in use? and
when I got a call, simply pull out earbud and insurt into the ear,
rest all the time in hidden position.

Hi,
Yes, I have just such a bluetooth pair; they are horse-shoe shaped and
sit
on your shoulders around your neck (very losely). You pull out a little
mushroom ear-piece from either side and insert it into the ear (it's
tipped
with soft silicon-rubber), and when you're done you press a button and
they
automatically retract back into the base unit.
These are the LG HBS 900, and I have written up instructions and
converted
the pdf manual to text for anyone who would like a copy you can email me
at:
acora...@comcast.net
They are at the top end of your price range, but do everything you want,
have great sound quality, you can use only one ear or both, and they have
a
3-setting equalizer, as well as controls for pause/ff and rw, and talking
to
Siri, starting and ending calls, etc. Battery last for 3 days.
They come in various colors, my sighted wife prefers the silver.
Hth,
Chip

Subject: Bluetooth Headphones
All,
Back in January I purchased a pair of Plattan ADV wireless headphones
from Urbanears. While the audio quality and playing time of the
headphones is very good, they are over-the-ear and very tight; and
while you can raise and loer each side, there is no way to make them
loose. As a result I can only wear them for a really short time before
becoming uncomfortable. As a result, I get less use out of them than I
otherwise would. So I am thinking of buying a new pair, and am looking
for recommendations. Here is ideally what I am hoping for:
- Somewhere in the
450-70 price range.
- Inner-ear headset, or if over the ear wider foam coverings that will
actually go completely over the ear.
- Ability to connect to two devices simultaneously.
Does anyone have suggestions?
