    Default decent priced Bluetooth headset?

    hey all, i bought a $19.95 Jabra (can't remember the model number) BT Headset on the way to the cashier line at Fry's. that was not a good idea. it worked fine a coupla times but now a garbled unintelligible voice i send out is what i have. the battery is new and it turns on and off fine.

    Is there a compatibility issue here? are there BT headsets better rated to work with the Palm 800w? thanks,,,,,,,

    Sorry to hear about your bad experience. I bought one of the first blue tooth head sets offered by Palm for the 650 and it still works great. I even use it with my iPhone. I don't remember the brand and Palm has there logo all over it but if you go click on the store page above there is a picture of it that when you click on it it takes you to headsets. They don't appear to carry it anymore. Good luck on finding one. I love my 650 and still use it on occassion.

    I use a 3 year old Motorola H500 with great success, ranging from using it on a Centro, a Treo 800W and now a Touch Pro.

    Not to push you away from this store:tounge:, but eCost has the Jawbone 1 for $30 after rebate, plus shipping. Nice headset, better price.
