    The Jabra BT8030 is what I have, and it has great sound. It may not be one that you'd want if you intend to walk around outside looking cool, but around the house it's a high quality set. Battery like is somewhere around 6-8 hours playback, if I'm remembering correctly.

    I have the Jabras BT620s and it works great with Bluetooth. The sound quality may be lower, but for teh freedom you get its worth it. I am able to walk around my house listen to music or talking to people on my headset. The ability to connect it via mini usb to usb is also very convenient. The playback controls on the headset make it a plus also.I just got them but playback time is about 10-12 hours if I remember reading.
