    Good deal. I've never owned a BT headset, but for this price I might.

    doesn't have the hottest reviews on amazon.com, but for 9 bucks all together, i suppose i could use it for driving or be able to keep my hands in my pocket when its freezing cold outside.

    learned about AAAA batteries from this headset, that what it uses so watch out!

    I ended up ordering this headset. Should be here in a week. I have never owned a BT headset, so it will be a new thing to me. I guess this is kind of to see if I really even use one before I get a more expensive one.

    i guess we can both post up a review, ordered one too. total was 9.78 with tax. i suppose it can't be too bad for the money, i've spent 10 bucks on worse things.

    Oh yes! :D That will be cool to see reviews from both of you! 2 different opinions, which will hopefully be very similar in the outcome!
