I bought this headset back in July 2008 and have been using it everyday since then. I have a few things I like about it, and only 1 thing that sucks.



Review: Plantronics Discovery 665 - Bluetooth Headset

The good: Charing options and the clip-on.

I bought the headset at Best Buy in the US and since I live in Norway the charger does not work here. One of the main reasons I purchased this model was that it offered many different ways to charge. USB cable to a computer and cigarette lighter for the car, with a stand!discovery665_12v_charger.gif

Another reason I liked this model was the clip that comes with it. I found out that this model can clip onto your shirt or where ever you want, instead of wearing it on your ear or hanging from around your neck.

The bad: No Multi Point support.

What is Multi Point?

Today I found out that Multi Point allows the headset to be "paired" with mulitple devices and switch between them easily.

I use the headset with both my iPhone 3G and my MacBook Pro (OSX 10.4). Going between the two devices requires that I have to "re-pair" each time.

Kind of a hassle if you are trying to use the headset this way.
