    Looking for ideas for a bluetooth headset for Motorola KRZR K1. Three
    I am looking at are the Motorola H670, H700, and the Jabra BT250. Any
    else I should consider? At this point I am leaning toward the H700.
    My son really likes the Jabra, but he has a Nokia.

    I would get one that uses the same charger as the cellphone, which would be
    the H670 out of the trio that you mention for the KRZR.

    I have both an H670 and a BT250v. The drawback of the 670 is that some
    voice couples from earpiece to mouthpiece, giving the distant end some
    echo.

    The BT250 provides more separation, so it doesn't suffer that same fate,
    but it is consequently quite a bit larger. The charging base is awkward,
    and comes unplugged from it's own cord easily. The headset is also poorly
    constructed. Two of two samples have come apart where a tiny screw ties
    hard to soft plastic, exposing some wiring. I think they come from the
    factory with that screw stripped out, and it is located where it is
    impossible to refasten with normal tools. The wiring doesn't really seem
    to fit into the area properly, so I don't want to repair it myself anyway.
    They won't do a cross ship for warranty replacement. The earpiece can pop
    off if it is pressed, and once it pops off the first time, it doesn't seem
    to stay on very well.

    Thanks Clarence. I didn't even consider the charging method. Do you
    know the difference between the chargers for the H670 and H700?

    The H670 is the mini-USB common to the V3.
    The H700 says mini-usb, but I thought it was the v551 style hook and prong.
    That would move the H700 up on my list. I like the folding boom as the
    on-off switch for pocket use. It would also make it a little longer, for
    better microphone positioning.

    I hear good things about the Aliph jawbone. It's quite a bit more
    expensive, though.

    Some of the Plantronics units allow easy switching between devices, so you
    could use one headset on Cellphone and PC. I have two separate headsets
    for that, because switching is too difficult.

    I have a Moto Razr V3. I use a Cardo Scala-700 for a bluetooth
    headset. I believe it's compatible with the Krzr K1. I got it from
    Amazon.com for $21.00. Both my phone and the Cardo Scala-700 use
    chargers with mini-usb. I get good sound quality without having a boom
    mic. It supports voice commands and is very compact. Just thought I'd
    mention it as an alternative.

    motorola makes one that uses 1 AAA battery, I use it with my Razr and Treo.
    No need for another charger and when traveling it is much easier to find a
    battery than it is to replace a missing charger. Bought mine at Walmart for
    about $40
