I am having ton of static problems with my Treo 650 and Bluetooth headsets.
When I use a wired headset, no headset or the speakerphone, there is no
static and the phone works fine. I get static on my bluetooth headset no
matter what headset I use. If I am more than about 20 inches away from the
phone, I get static. I've tried hard resetting the phone, making sure the
phone and headset are fully charged, and I've tried five different bluetooth
headsets:
Motorola H700
Plantronics Discovery 645
Jabra JX10
Palm Compact Wireless Headset
Sony Ericsson HBH-608
All of them have significant static when they are just two feet from the
phone, no matter what environment they are in (home, work, car, etc.).
I've already gotten a replacement refurbished 650 from Sprint, but it has
the same problem. Are all 650s this bad? Sprint/Palm should fix this!
Does anyone have any thoughts on fixing the problem or know of a headset
that works?
I know that if the 650 were BT1.2 things would be better, but that does not
help me.
Thanks for any advice!

I haven't experienced significant BT static problems with my Treo,
including using a Motorola headset and on a hands-free auto.

It may very well be that you have a lot of hardware in the vicinity that
interferes with bluetooth. WiFi access points and some cordless phones
all operate on the same unlicensed spectrum as bluetooth, so if there is
a lot of it in use nearby, you will have problems.
