Right Andy, but even the Plantronics M50 is referred to as a headset and
with Stereo support. This is because it goes on some part of your head,
even if it's just a piece of your ear, and it has A2DP support, which in
most cases is for stereo playback of audio. The fact that it's just in
one ear and that's it's not true stereo is beside the point. The fact
that VoiceOver needs A2DP to work properly is definitely important
whether the headset fits over 1, 2, or 3 ears.

Hi there. Unfortunately these series of earpieces or headsets do not
start and stop audio playback when you press the talk button. I feel
that is probably one of their only flaws. I also have the Motorola S 11
headset which is a stereo headset covering both ears and looping around
the back of your head. The talk button will pause and play music as well
as answer phone calls. If I can find a single earpiece Bluetooth headset
who's talk button will also start and stop music I might consider that
one over the Plantronics.

I see you said you use the M50 for audiobooks a lot. Can you start
and stop the book with the earpiece? I have the Blue Ant and I can
not control books or music with it. And to contact Siri I have to say
Phone Commands and then wait while the earpiece says a whole long
sentence about connecting to my phone's built in phone commands.
It is ok for calls and listening to voice over when I am holding the
phone and flicking but I really miss the music and book control.
So don't get the Blue Ant for books.

Subject: lost my Plantronics M50
Hi all. yesterday I went to Austin to take a certification test for the
state so I can legally train consumers with the state. In any case, I
took my Plantronics M50 head phone, or rather, ear piece since it's for
a single ear, with me, and somewhere between leaving the Chris Cole
center and the Greyhound bus I lost it. I don't know if I dropped it out
of my shirt pocket when I took something else out of it, or if I took it
off and just left it there in the station. In any case, today I went out
for some personal life things and really missed having the ear piece
with me. So, now I find myself at Amazon, ready to purchase a
replacement M50, but then am thinking that since I love exploring new
items and trying out new things, maybe I should get a different kind.
Then when I think of this I have second and third thoughts because I
really like the M50. It's super light, has decent enough volume, and
since I mainly use it for VoiceOver and Audio book or podcast listening,
I am hesitant to buy another different brand.
I've looked at this list's archives and see a few other models people
have recommended, but I'm still not sure.
I guess there is no point to this message other than saying that if you
get used to something and then you don't have it, you will know how much
you really liked it if you miss it a lot.
