Bluetooth for mobile phones

My Cingular 8125 can support Bluetooth headsets, but I've not yet decided on one. I see 'em all the time for as low as $30, but I'm unsure of the quality I'd get with something so cheap. What experiences have any of you had with Bluetooth headsets for your mobile phones?

I am currently using one w/ my Razor and wouldn't ever go without one. They are a great feature. About the only difference I have found from one to the other is features, and talktime. The sound quality on all 100 dollar and less headsets seem to be about the same. I am still using the original blue tooth headset that debuted back when blue tooth first came out and I haven't found much better quality in the newer ones.

Zoom there is a lot going on in Bluetooth right now. If your phone supports A2DP you can even get stereo headphones for listening to music via bluetooth (they work to make calls with as well).

I have a Treo so I went with the Treo set. But Motto makes good headsets.

I love my motorolla headset! Before I primarily used it for my phone but, now it's mostly for the PS3.

My phone supports wired stereo earbuds, which is what came with it. I've been wondering if they had a stereo bluetooth version, and only one person has said "yes, but not good quality". So, I'm eager to see what coming soon. What's A2DP?

They have the Motorola Hsomething850 on sale at Amazon for $30. Very nice, and $70 off to boot.

Dang, I may have to buy that. I can't find my blutooth headset. I used it for the PS3 this past weekend, then I thought I put it back in my car, but can't find it now.

Just got mine today...ordered Saturday, got it today...not bad considering the UPS ground shipping and Monday was a holiday.

I'll post how I like it after I've played with it for a few days.

I just found out that my bluetooth headset (Motorola H500 I think), can link up with my phone and my PS3 without having to resynch it every time). Very cool.

Oh yeah, and I did find my headset thankfully!

And I just sent mine back to motorola for a replacement...I charged it up, and it wouldn't turn on. Really bad experience for my first amazon.com purchase.

oh well.
