Who else here has the Cellpoint Flamingo BT headset?

[xultar]

Well, I just got mine on Saturday and I LOVE IT!!!

Even my most picky your BT headset sux callers love it. The only problem I have is the earpiece. Even the smallest is too big for my ears. :( The smallest earClick hurts a bit.

Anyone else here have one. Lets talk.

Strange beast.

Now why didn't I think of that.... Thanks!

I like the picture (http://www.phonemag.com/images/uploads/HPIM1263.jpg) of it beside the Bluespoon AX, which is what I'm using. I really like the Bluespoon. It has a couple draw backs, but overall it's a really great unit.

xultar, how do you find the range with the Flamingo? The AX starts getting breaking up at about 3 feet. I wish it was more like 5 or 6 feet. :-(

I'm going to play around with it today some more and I'll add this to the list of things to do.

Sorry I've been gone...

But I'm feeling better and I'm back on my feet and happy to report that I get 15 ft away before I even get static on my headset.

I've even been able to hold a call with static up to 30. I will admit however, that I was walking fast away from the handset and ran back and it was between 2 floors in my home.

I'm really pleased with the headset and the fit is even getting better.

I hope everything's ok, and I'm glad your back. :)


15 feet is really good - 30 feet is amazing. I'm a little annoyed that the Bluespoon has such a short distance. It's not very often that I want to put my phone down and walk around talking. But it does come in handy on occasions. The Bluespoon gives you about 3 feet - max! :(

I have the BlueSpoon AX. I believe that is the one pictured above. I like mine as well and dont really have a need going past 10ft. But I agree...it should get to at least 25-30 before losing the signal.

The flamingo is really nice. But after someone mentioned it looked a bit phallic.....I couldnt bring myself to buy one.
