    Heya all

    I know there is a very recent thread going on for the wireless headset ( http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=209661)

    I am also in the market for a bluetooth headset and did some (re)search on the internet. I already own a corded headset, but looking one for portability.

    I have got a AT&T Samsung SYNC (SGH-A707) cell phone with A2DP feature, and also a laptop with built-in bluetooth adaptor, with which i would like to use this wireless headset.

    I am unable to use the in-ear type, as the earbud does not stay in my left ear :( so i gotta have the over the ear type. Also i will be using this while traveling so it cant be too bulky and the volume has to be good level.

    Finally but not the least Budget: US$ 100 /-

    Thanks
    MadEngineer

    I have a review of the Plantronics Pulsars you can read here on the forums, thats what I use for my computer great for games/music. However I plan to get some s9's to use with my phone because I will be using them mainly for athletic reasons where a cord gets in the way, I would not use the S9's for normal listening.

    For anything else I would just use the included corded earbuds of my phone.

    See if this is usefull for you: 2 threads.
