Does anyone know what bluetooth platform blueant uses. >Does anyone know what bluetooth platform blueant uses. Which product? They have several. Used most of their's, seems ok. >>Does anyone know what bluetooth platform blueant uses. > > Which product? They have several. > > Used most of their's, seems ok. I've got to admit I didnt look for the model, but I believe they only have the one fully installed car kit. (??) It has been paired to a nokia (BT v1.2) very ordinary to the called party. Same performance as the blackberry unit, it just turned out to be another sh.t aftermarked compromise HFK. Maybe its just the blueant, I never had much faith in their quality. >>>Does anyone know what bluetooth platform blueant uses. >> [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] >unit, it just turned out to be another sh.t aftermarked compromise HFK. >Maybe its just the blueant, I never had much faith in their quality. I've shipped a few Supertooths. They have good audio, they use a DSP. Had a few fail though, one after a year, one DOA. Either way, hassle free exchange for new and in one case, upgraded product. Playing with the X3 BT earpirece at the moment. A said.... > I've shipped a few Supertooths. They have good audio, they use a DSP. It's OK, but nowhere as good as a wired in car kit. My wife has one which is "mated" to her Nokia 6230. My daughter bought one recently and it works off her LG 3G flip-phone. From the remote end, when speaking into the Blueant mike, it can sound somewhat echoey, particularly if the car suffers a bit of road noise. Other than that, it's not bad. Certainly value for money considering that a decent car kit can cost around $400 and needs to be wired in. Only drawback is that the Blueant doesn't offer extended reception like a wired car kit with external antenna does. >> I've shipped a few Supertooths.

Yeh, i'm going to fit a nokia microphone and see if it brings the quality beyond 'ordinary' > Other than that, it's not bad.

From what I can find, there is only the one model, the Supertooth II, of which I have one. And all it has is an earphone jack and a jack for external power/battery charger. If you have another model that takes a mike, do you have a link to it? >A said.... > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] >Other than that, it's not bad. Certainly value for money considering >that a decent car kit can cost around $400 and needs to be wired in. You need to adjust both volume controls to find a suitable setting. What you have described is an incorrect volume setting, with the echo. Adjust the Supertooth to middle range and use the mobile's volume to get a comfortable level. >Only drawback is that the Blueant doesn't offer extended reception like >a wired car kit with external antenna does. Have you actually got signal problems? Not usually an issue with GSM, more of a problem with CDMA and the old analog network. GSM cell size is limited by design. >Inviato da X-Privat.Org - Registrazione gratuita http://www.x-privat.org/join.php A User wrote: >>From the remote end, when speaking into the Blueant mike, it can sound >>somewhat echoey, particularly if the car suffers a bit of road noise. > You need to adjust both volume controls to find a suitable setting. Thanks for the tip. We'll have a play with it. However, doesn't the Blueant control all the volume levels? I thought that the mobile, say in your pocket, handbag or whatever merely acted as a bluetooth connection between the Blueant and the mobile network. >>Only drawback is that the Blueant doesn't offer extended reception like >>a wired car kit with external antenna does. > Have you actually got signal problems? Not usually an issue with GSM, Not at the moment. But where we live GSM coverage is limited once your out of the major towns and move away from the Princes Highway. CDMA coverage is good, but then I have a CDMA car kit for my phone (Nokia 2280). The Blueant is used with the missus' phone, a Nokia 6230 in her car. >>> I've shipped a few Supertooths.

If it wasnt a car kit problem, you would be on the right track. Gets even trickier with an VY crummidore or a BA fowlcan, with 3 volume controls to contend with. >>Only drawback is that the Blueant doesn't offer extended reception like >>a wired car kit with external antenna does. >> > Have you actually got signal problems?
