Logitech Mobile Freedom BT Headset Reviewed
"Logitech is an established brand in the mobile accessory world. Their last generation Bluetooth wireless headset had amazing battery life, beating out most all other Bluetooth headsets we�ve tested in standby time and talk time. Logitech recently released their next generation Mobile Freedom Bluetooth wireless headset that features WindStop technology, a sleek design, Bluetooth 1.2 chipset, good battery life and an affordable price."
Tong Zhang of pdabuyersguide has written an excellent and in-depth review of Logitech's new headset. It looks like a winner, as long as you don't mind a slightly lower outgoing volume level. Anyone have this? What do you think?

Mine shipped from Compusa.com today with 2-day FexEx shipping. So, I'll have a good idea on my opinion of it by the end of the week. I believe it just came available this week for everyone.

Well, everyone knows you have to talk louder when you are on a cell phone. That's why I'm looking so forward to them being allowed on airlines :?

I just ordered one...but I'll never see it. My wife's Christmas present.  I'm using a plantronics M3000. Big...too big and I'm tired of everyone giving me a Star Trek salute.

I had this since last week. My friend worked at Logitech and he got me one. Small enough to fit in my pocket, just like my other bluetooth headset, but with no background noise. What the review said about this headset is what made me get one and so far, the review is right. I just hope not to accidentally turned off the headset when it's in my pocket.
So now I have Sony HBH-600 on sale, it's a Bluetooth headset that could pick up any noise from a mile away. It's great if you want your caller to ease drop on someone else's conversation. :roll:

Where to buy and pricing
Any recommendation on where to buy this at? What is the average going price?
I did a search and found it at ecost.com for $39.95. Seems like a good deal, but I'm not sure its the new model or the old one. It does say it has WindStop, however. Here's the link:

I ordered mine from Logitech on 10/23. Called them today & they said they were supposed to start shipping 11/24. I'm going to check CompUSA again. If they have it, I'll cancel my Logitech order. My HBH-65 died yesterday & I desperately need a headset.
edit - checked CompUSA - site still shows shipping date of 11/30

Got mine from CompUSA.com today. The sound quality is so good, coming from the Jabra BT200. Callers seem to be able to hear me very well.
I'm trying to get used to the fit, though. The earphone potion sits over the top of the ear, rather than going into the ear. That's OK; my problem lies in the part that wraps around the ear, though. It just feels like the headset is going to fall off my ear too easy.
It works great, though. Maybe it's just getting used to a new headset, though. I will say that it's a bit larger than I expected, and it does stick out from the ear a bit.
