Unlike headsets that make the wearer look like an urban Borg, this style is unobtrusive and elegant. The only downside might be the lack of extra features that headset power-users have come to expect."</i><br /><br /> <img src="http://www.smartphonethoughts.com/images/Jerry-pocket_pc_thoughts_judie_hughes_sony_bluetooth_hbh_iv835_review_00.jpg" alt="User submitted image" title="User submitted image"/> <br /><br />I happen to like the Urban Borg look myself. Be that as it may Judie Hughes over at Pocket PC Thoughts has done a nice review of this Sony headset. Happily there are no pictures of the thing in some guys hairy ear which for some reason, a lot of headset reviews seem to have.

I find it interesting that there's no support for this. Usually something this large will loop around the ear or something. The plain in-ear ones are usually a lot smaller. I wonder if the weight of this would cause it to drop out regularly. :?

I think it's ugly.

i use a plantronics discovery 655 (which looks a bit similiar but smaller) and man that thing is the cast a$$. great range, clarity (in and out), size, and comfort (so light and comfortable w/ the gel piece that you don't need an over the ear part and it still sits securely). Plus comes w/ a slew of awesome accessories including a little vibrating holster for the thing on your belt, and a recharger that takes a AA battery. Check it out.
