Solid OEM product, works great for the LG C2000
It's sad when an already cheap South Korean product has even cheaper knockoffs from China but that's exactly the problem I ran into with other sellers. I tried a couple other products which claimed to work for my phone but none of them actually did, I believe it was the unstable voltage as the cause, the two other chargers were both made in China and listed voltages from 4.5-7.5, and the other one said 5.0-9.5 which just didn't work right in my phone. Sadly those details were not in their listings and it wasn't worth the hassle to send the items back.This one is branded LG, so you know it's legit OEM, and fixed voltage of 4.6v which is what my phone needs. Sometimes it doesn't pay to look for the cheapest item, you may end up buying more than one ;) | 1positive

Best Bluetooth Headset
I used to have Motorola 700 and I did not like and I lost it too so I did more research on the net and I found this good Bluetooth headset. It is outstanding in all aspects. | 1positive

does't fit your ear well
I had the motorola standard bluetooth earphone and bought this one to use in the office with skype. It's really uncomfortable. The band that goes behind your ear rotates around, instead of opening like a wing. Therefore, the earphone it's always compressing against your ear. Sound-quality and battery life is good. It doesn't come with any software, and it just has a little button to synchronize, etc. on the usb piece. I did not find it intuitive and I'm having trouble configuring it. | 0negative

Voice dialing issues
I had previous Parrot products, so I bought this one with high hopes. Unfortunately, that was a mistake and I recommend that you keep looking.There are two major problems:The speech recognition for voice-activated dialing is poor. It seems to be designed to accept a very narrow range of pronunciations. So, I find myself repeating the same name over and over again before it will recognize it. I can seriously pronounce the same word about one dozen times and it replies with the annoying message, "Name Not Recorded." I would like to yell back -- "you, lie!" -- but, of course, it would just tell me that "you, lie" was not recorded either.The other problem is that it does not turn on or off based on the car power. You must manually turn it on, which requires a very long key press. I can live with that. But, it does not turn off when the power is disconnected. It turns off when the phone is moved out of bluetooth range. Unfortunately, my upstairs bedroom -- which is two floors away -- is within Bluetooth range! So, the device and the phone are linked all night.Not so major problems include unresponsive buttons and an annoying tendency to not wait long enough before dialing the phone. I often get an error message from the cellular provider.On the positive side, the speaker is good and the voice cancellation is better than most.All in all, I would say that you should keep looking. Or, if you like, I will sell you mine. | 0negative

Does not break.
This is definitely a good cell phone.I have seen all those fancy cell phone with huge screen and photo capabilities, but what's the point? I only want to call people with my phone, and if it does that, I am happy, and this phone does it well and has a good price.I have also dropped this phone about 50 times since I got it 6 monthes ago and not a single thing has gone wrong for the phone as a result of my carelessness.I think this is a perfect phone for someone who wants to keep things simple | 1positive

Does not serve the purpose
I bought this headset to use it with Skype, not to use it with a phone. I the only way I could make this headset work with my computer was by downloading additional software, which made operation much more complicated. For some reason this thing does not work windows bluetooth drivers. After the software trial ran out I would have had to pay, so I ended up not using the head set at all.If you want to use your headset with a PC, get another one... the other Motorola headsets appear to work just fine. | 0negative

pretty sad
This product was very difficult to set up (a small light, blinks green, red, amber during the setup - tough to distinguish). It ended up not working at all with my Motorola Wireless Headset (S805). When I went to check the manufacturer's website, I found they were out of business. Fortunately, I was able to return the device to CCMACCESSORIES for a full refund. SONY makes a device that does the same thing (much smaller,a bit pricier - maybe $65) - I purchased that and it worked immediately. | 0negative

HS 820
Works well with my RAZR. A little trouble getting it into pairing mode for the first time, didn't hold the button long enough, but after that no problems. | 1positive

Nice case fast delivery
Nice leather case. Fits the Razr well. Clip is very strong and tight on your belt. There is a protective cover that goes over the screen., and over the key pad. I just can't feel the keys now, but it is well protected. When you go to use the camera you just have to make sure the case is out of the way of the lens. Very similar to the one you can buy at Verizon but better quality and cheaper. | 1positive

Great Case
This is a great case. Protects my 650 and I still have access to everything without having to remove it. I thought it would be awkward to use when talking on the phone but it really is not. | 1positive

Be careful you don't damage your headset jack
Doesn't matter if it was made by Palm or not.If I were you, I wouldn't use it on a Treo 650 - except temporarily for testing purposes.Frankly, the audio jack on the Treo 650 is a known weak point. And it can break in a way that permanently silences the phone's built-in earphone.If you want to read more about this, just Google "treo jack".This L-shaped adapter can apply too much leverage on that little 2.5 mm jack. I you want a demonstration, go borrow an adapter, plug it in, and you'll see exactly what I mean.Better get the type with a flexible cord. Sure, that kind eventually gets flakey - but it's cheaper to replace an adapter than to get your phone repaired. | 0negative

Almost perfect
If the company would provide a larger bottle with more spray, then this product would go on with a lot less anxiety. There was just enough spray to get the shield on. Once a few days passed though and the sheild settled, it really dried clear and looks great now. I'm quite pleased. | 1positive

Exactly what I needed!
This item shipped very fast, and it was perfect for what I was looking for. It's clear so It still shows off the color of my white phone. Its slim and it seems like it will protect my Samsung Galaxy 3 well. Overall I would recommend this product. | 1positive

Great value
I highly recommend this bundle for the price. For less than the cost of an offical Verizon travel charger, you get a travel charger, home charger and a USB cable with driver CD. Everything works just fine. The instructions for the USB cable are very lacking, so here are my suggestions: you can use Windows Media Player to move music over to your phone using the Sync feature, and you can use a free program such as BitPim to do other file transfers between your PC and phone. | 1positive

Using more every time..! awesome
I have been waiting to finish my 1 year contract to get this phone. i did find some bad reviews about 6600. but let me tell you folks its a awesome phone. I have a Palmone T3 and i am really having a good time with both now. neeed to try sync option soon. over all i am much satisfied. giving 4 stars cause the keys are placed little odd. thanks nokia | 1positive

Product quality deteriorated and specs have changed..
I have ordered the same item in the past and was very happy with the quality of the product. However on the recent order I made, it came out with very flimsy quality and also the dongle was much more thicker so it does not work with my bumper case. On contacting the seller they said they don't have the thinner one. | 0negative

Don't waste your money if you have ATT

Very Satisfied
I've never reviewed anything before, but at the prompting of an email from amazon I will throw in my 2 cents. I love this little plantronics 510 headset. It's my first bluetooth headset, but I have tried countless wired products over the years with nothing good to say about any of them. This thing comes with 3 different sized ear pieces that, I assume, should fit most ears, one fit mine perfectly. I was worried about the durability factor, as I refuse to just wear one of these things at all times, like so many people I see everywhere. I wanted to put mine in my pocket or in my shirt collar when not in use and so far, after a month of use, it has been stellar. More soft and flexible than I thought possible. As a sidenote, the thing sounds fantastic. I'm hooked on this thing now, just try and take it away from me. | 1positive

Excellent Product
I work on a Millitary base in a concrete building with a steel substructure. I was getting 0-1 bar on my cell phone. After installing this product and mounting the antenna between the metal substructure and the outside concrete structure I am not getting 5 bars!!Excellent product! | 1positive

Is it Broken?
Got this device to work with my Motorola cell phone and to use with my Bluetooth PC adapter. So far, the unit isn't finding my phone nor will my PC find it. I want to use it for speech recognition applications with my PC. Colleague had one and used it that way so I bought one too. So far mine is silent!!! | 0negative

Beware - Does not fit Verizon 8130 Pearl
Clearly the phone has been updated slightly since this version of the case was designed and manufactured. The left and right buttons are slightly different than the cutouts on the skin, and the camera lens is completed covered by the skin. I assume it was previously in a different location in the back, since there is a cutout for it, just not in the correct place.Make sure you have the right version before ordering! | 0negative

should have come with a USB charging cable
It's a pity that they couldn't have it recharge from a standard mini usb connection, the way the V3 does. This way, you don't need Yet Another Recharger set. | 1positive

Don't do this at home
I am so stupid! The joystick (which is made of plastic and therefore very flimsy) snapped off the phone. So, I attempted to crazy glue it back on, and now it doesn't move at all, rendering the phone totally useless. If your joystick comes off, don't do what I did! Otherwise, had the phone for over a year, and found it to be a very fun, useful, and great looking phone. Love the animations, the ring lights, etc. | 1positive

Great but doesn't fit!
There are two restraining clips at either side of the holster that lock the phone in. The problem is that since this is a slider phone these clips make it impossible to actually open the fun. A better design would have been to clip into the lanyard holder at the center.Pros - cheap, came quickly.Cons - Can't open phone. Maybe OK if you just use a headset and never need to access the keypad. | 0negative

BEST PHONE THAT I HAVE OWNED!
This is by far the best phone that I have ever owned. Its got all a teenager wants these days, keypad for quick texting, AIM, Yahoo and ICQ, mobile email, what else could a teen ask for?? I have had this phone for 3 weeks (I got it at Wal Mart) and very impressed by it. MAKE SURE THAT YOU GET INSURENCE FROM CINGULAR!! Even though this is a really cool phone, it feels a lot cheaper then my other phones that I have owned. I have owned a LGF9100, Motorola V551 and Rokr and this one just isnt as sturdy. Now I will list out the Pro's and Con'sPros-1. Easy one touch access to camera2. Easy one touch access to write a SMS3. It may look hard, and I have had lots of people say why would you get that keypad? And I give them a go at typing, and they are in love. Its a lot easier than it looks4. Long battery lifeCons-1. A little big2. Cant turn on speakerphone until the other person answers3. Every time you send an SMS, it asks you if you want to save a copy to your sent box, and it gets anoying after a while4. This one is a really big one, NO BLUETOOH! Most phones these days have bluetooth on them but this new phone dosent seen to need it( I guesse thats what the designers were thinking)5. Camera sucks, camera isnt the greatest camera in the worldOverall I am very satisfied with this phone, except for the minor cons (excluding bluetooth). I think that I will keep this phone for a while. This phone is the greatest phone for you teens out there, parents, be prepared for high SMS bills!!! | 1positive

not so much...
In October my plan was up and I had to have the Razr. Great. Charged it for the full 8 hours or whatever. Took it out for the day and it didn't hold a charge for more than 6 hours. And that was just with normal use - a few short phone calls, didn't take and pictures, didn't watch any vcasts. I took it back. They gave me a new one. New one didn't charge for more thn 6 hours of use either. Verizon told me that that's "just the way phones are nowadays" and to basically deal with it. I dealt with it for a few more months but had increasing problems with it - it would ring when it wasn't get a call. The alarm would go off and wouldn't stop until I took the battery out. Constantly dropping calls. Took it back yet again to Verizon, I don't want this model anymore. It sucks. Well, apparently I can't do that and the only way out is to buy a new phone at full retail price. I went to T-mobile had my number ported over and I've finally got a phone that works. It cost me a $175 cancellation fee, but that was at least cheaper than buying a new phone at full retail.The Pros: It is a "pretty" phone, and it fits great in a back pocket. Awesome ringtones. Verizon's plans aren't too bad. You can't beat their coverage either. | 0negative

Worked, For a while!
I love my Kindle Fire, but I hate the micro plug.when plugging in a charger cord, I find that sometimes it doesn't recognize that the plug is in and sometimes I have to jiggle it a little to get the charging box to turn green to show that it is, in fact, charging. I cannot stand the A/C wall charger that came with the Fire. It is ridiculously short making it very difficult to find a place to charge it safely and I have purchased several of these cords since last Christmas and a majority work for a while and then break or don't work at all. Sometimes it is hit or miss and then sometimes a cord charges and then sometimes it acts up and refuses to charge. I have the same plug on my Samsung Stratosphere and I don't seem to have the same problem.With this cord the part that plugs into the Fire virtually fell apart. I don't care how much you pay for one of these type of cord, they should all work. When I started using it, this cord "appeared" on my visual inspection to be well made, but I guess looks are deceiving. The cord, of course, fell apart after the return date so I'm stuck.I really don't recommend this cord. I realize that it could be just a single defective one,but, of the three other reviews, only one person out of four of us recommended this cord. So just beware. | 0negative

Late and appears to be used
Bought this item and another battery from this seller on 1/12/09 with express shipping. The delivery date was supposed to be 1/19/09. This was the day that it was actually shipped. Recieved both products on the same day 1/22/09. Upon inspecting the car charger and both batteries, all 3 were poorly wrapped and had scuff marks on them. They appear to be used items. I wasnt aware of this as the item descriptions doesnt have them listed as 2nd hand or used in any way.the case on the other hand was palm brand and appeared new.For the price paid, i guess i should have known. It wouldnt have been a problem had they been up front with me about the item status and shipping times.I would have saved my money and went with standard shipping had i known an "in stock" item would take so long to get to me, especially since they are being shipped 1 state away..Overall, Im unsatisfied with the condition, shipping times, and overall experience. | 0negative

Drops 15% of all calls
Horrible phone - drops at least 15% of all calls, doesn't ring all the time, software glitchy and crashes. I have had two separate v220s with the same problems. Don't get motorola. I miss my old grayscale denon candybar from sprint... | 0negative

crappy plastic, cheaply made
Luckily I bought this item on sale, it was like $10. It was probably made for .30. It fell apart the first time I used it. Poor quality. On top of that, Amazon shipped it to the wrong address, so it took forever to get. Don't buy this. Spend the extra $5 and get it from the manufacturer OR spend less and get it from the dollar store (it'll be the same quality). | 0negative

New user, but no major complaints - Nice Headset!
I have only had this item for a short time, and I have not used it more than a handful of times. The sound quality is pretty good, but I'm not an audiophile. Works great with my Sony Ericsson phone as well as my Ipod. If a call comes in while I'm listening to my music, an audible alert is sounded, and a push of the side button will switch the headset to my phone. Then when the call is ended, the music switches back automatically. Nice for travel and on the plane. Only complaint so far is that the set seems like it could be built a little more durably. The flashing blue light on the right ear can be annoying if I am on the plane...I'm sure it irritates my neighbors, especially if the cabin lights are dimmed. There should be an option to turn this off on bluetooth devices in my opinion. The flashing light is a waste of battery power. Excellent battery life with this product as well. | 1positive

Works fine - great price
I purchased this through amazon marketplace from "SF Planet". It came as described and works fine. It fits my ear and is clear sounding on both ends. It shows the Motorola logo, so I assume it is genuine. For $3.08 including shipping, I can't complain. It is hard to find earbuds with a 2.5mm plug that don't require an adapter, so I am happy with this one. | 1positive

Great design
It is well thought out with interchangeable parts and pads. My ipod mini fits securely in the smaller optional sleeve. It came with a firecable ac plug for charging the unit. I havent run the battery down so no info on the battery life. | 1positive

my journey for bluetooth ends here....
used to own plantronics 320, which is a bit bigger & longer version of 640....loved it & lost it, and tried all different kinds including motorola hs840, h700, zebra, sony, & toshiba....each has its own strengths & weaknesses; however, they all lacked the most important part, loudness....640 does not have the best sound quality, but it is loud enough to hear from anywhere....motorola had a pretty good sound quality, but they were not loud enough, so in crowded area, they were hard to use....others, toshiba & sony, were decent in sound quality-wise, but they somehow looked a bit outdated....640 comes with 3 different sizes of ear plugs, and i use the biggest one....they are somehow a bit uncomfortable, but it is still better than ear hooks, i guess....it also comes with ear hooks, which is virtually useless, but it was a nice addition for some who may like it....it comes with external battery-charged charger, which i kinda don't like....it would be nicer if it comes with car charger & regular charger....but, it can be a good idea for those who travel a lot....overall, i love this bluetooth....small, compact, loud enough sound, easy control, & design....i wish it came with black as well to match my razor.... | 1positive

Horrible customer service and BAD phone
We had a similar problem...my girlfriend's wings screen went out after 10 days or so. The screen is totally blank. There was no external damage to the phone or screen. She got charged $100 for the warranty exchange, stating they found physical damage to the phone and is not covered by warranty. She contacted customer care and requested they return the phone and was told the phone has been destroyed.Destroyed...really? I doubt they destroyed the phone. They just want to make $100 profit. If they return the phone they got no profit. They probably just replace the screen on my old phone and sell it for $200 or so.I believe it costs them less than $100 to make the POOR quality Wing because it costs Apple only $100 (you can find this info. By searching online) to make the new 3G iPhone which is a lot more advance than the Wing. | 0negative

Can you hurt my ear now??
The case was very hard to put on and the clear plastic on the phone had split. The speaker for the phone was covered up because it would not slide up enough for the opening and could hardly hear when talking. The plastic was very rough and hurt holding it over your ear when talking. I threw the case away approx. a day and half of using. | 0negative

It works, plain and simple
All I can say is that it works, pure and simple. It's never dumped my Treo out to the ground, fallen off my belt, or popped off as I sat down in my car. What more could I ask? The leather finally wore out on the clip of my first case, from a year of constant daily jamming onto my belt, so I've purchased the same Palm leather case. If only my cellphone service could work this reliably! | 1positive

Great phone for it's targeted market
I purchased this phone as a backup to my Cingular 8125 (as I hate taking that thing outside of work--love that phone, but it is freaking bulky!).My basic requirements were: quad band, bluetooth, small form factor, and cheap. This phone fits the bill perfectly. It's based on the SLVR/L2/L6/L7 platform and works as well as the more expensive phones for MUCH LESS $$$.Form:Good small-sized phone, if you compare it to the folded RAZR (as I did with my wife's), it is approximately less than a centimeter longer than the RAZR, approximately the same width, and slightly thinner. I can slip it into a pocket and I barely notice it. I like this keyboard more than the L6/L7 keyboard--the elevation/texture of the keys makes it *slightly* easier to touchtype than the flat, etched keyboard of the L6/L7. The microphone is next to the 9 key--I'm a "left ear" so the microphone doesn't affect me as much (see prior reviewer), but since the mic is on the lower right part of the phone it can be obstructed by your cheek if you're a "right ear" person. The stylized Motorola "M" logo on the back is textured for friction (intended for your index finger to help hold the phone to your ear).Function:The basic software/menu system originates from the V600 series, so if you've used a Motorola phone since '04 or so, you know the system. The menu system is customizable (icons versus text list, order, etc.) as well as the keyboard shortcuts. The D-pad works well, but sometimes, I have a little difficulty actuating the middle "select" key and I don't have particularly thick fingers. There is a "key guard" command, "menu-*" (borrowed from the Nokias, I guess)--a must have for a "bar" style phone.Sound quality is good, but you have to be particularly careful lining up your ear to the earpiece--slight misalignment will significantly diminish the volume. On the lines of volume, I miss the old volume up/down buttons on the side like on the (my old) V600 or the RAZR. The L2 has a single button that cycles from silent>vibe>volume 1-7, a bit of a PITA. I've had no complaints about vocal quality (the phone's mic seems to pick up my voice reasonably well without distortions or too much background noise). Speakerphone works adequately.Bluetooth works well with my headseat, haven't tried it for contacts synch, but since the phone comes with mini-USB, I find bluetooth sync redundant anyway.Address book/contacts is typical Motorola. You actually CAN record multiple numbers per contact (I think someone has already described how below). However, the search contacts function still sucks big time (same old system originally in the V600). You can only press keystrokes for the first letter of the alphabet ("S" for Smith) and you can't refine further (like "S", "m" for Smith). It only will get you to the starting letter and then you scroll through to find the contact name.Reception/signal strength is typical Motorola, not the best (like Nokia), but more than adequate in most situations.Battery life is excellent. I can go at least 4 days with moderate usage (no bluetooth, though) before recharging. Bluetooth seems to increase battery consumption only sightly.The phone, while it doesn't have ITunes (like the L7) or an expandable memory card (like the L6/L7), will play small mp3 clips or a song or two (5 Mb onboard). So you can download a mp3 clip as a ring tone or something like that. Sound fidelity is pretty good, suprisingly. No camera, so no pictures or video, but has video playback capability (for downloaded/synced videos). Screen quality is excellent, not large, not small, but adequatly sized for the phone (would have liked maybe another 0.5 cm more screen, but whatever).Overall, a great value. It does what every phone should without the frills (camera, mp3/ITunes, etc.) Quad band for global usage (although the Motos are notorously difficult to unlock--may be worth the extra to buy one that's factory unlocked), bluetooth function, mini-usb for computer syncing/modem usage. 4/5 stars (detracted 1 for volume button, D-pad, and search function)(holy cow that was long--sorry!) | 1positive

Not Good
Owned a "refurbished" one for literally 3 months and something happened to the phone ("Car Kit") and I no longer have audio. I have read many reviews at this point and spoke with verizon employees, this is a pretty typical thing. I attempted all troubleshooting and nothing got it out of this mode. Otherwise the buttons were too small and the phone is very outdated. You get what you pay for. I got mine to the door for $35. (0.38/day) Could be worse. | 0negative

Windows Mobile Stinks!!!!
The hardware is great, I eventually exchanged it for the palm OS version. However, the memory issues and constant freezing of the windows mobile OS made me miss calls and become very familiar with hard resets. You'll constantly have to go into the task manager to close applications that are still resident in the memory.The most frustrating part for me is when it decided to hang while there was an incoming call. After a 30-45 second hard boot you'll have to call them back and explain that your phone froze.After switching to the Palm OS version of this device I never had a problem. I love the windows interface, but it's just to buggy and unstable. (I could insert a snarky Microsoft comment here, but why beat that dead horse)PS... Friends have also told me that other devices they own with Windows Mobile also have stability issues. So it doesn't seem like this is isolated to the Treo. | 0negative

Just what I needed
This battery was just what I needed. We have two Motorola V276 phones, both of which were getting old. The original batteries would only last a day or so on standby. With this new battery I can go almost a full week on standby without any trouble. Fits right, works right, problem solved. | 1positive

Drops calls
I bought this to replace a wonderful GE 900 MHz cordless.phone that quit working but is no longer made.The Plantronics works great -- as long as you're in the same room. Leave the room and it drops the call. If I wanted to stay in the room, I wouldn't have bought a cordless phone. | 0negative

Picks up all the outside sound
It is a good product but you need to use it in very quite enviornment and make sure that you are being very very quite. It picks up all the sound from around you. I haven't used a headset before but if they are all like this i know i should wait a long time before buying an other one. | 0negative

So far so bad
I purchased this phone to upgrade from my Kyocera K9. The K9 was a fine phone, but I wanted to get something that was a little smaller and would more easily fit in my pocket. The 8610 was on sale so I figured what the heck.I found the Audivox much harder to program, though the color display was a lot easier to read, so I figured it was a trade off and I'd get used to it. Unfortunately, the phone was a lemon. It would hang up when I answered calls. It would time out when I tried to place calls and at one point reprogramed itself so that the #1 button started calling someones phone number instead of voicemail. I do have to hand it to Virgin. I emailed them about the problem and they sent me the instructions to reset the phone within minutes. This solved the voicemail problem, but did nothing about the other issues. I then fought my way through "Simone" and got a real person, who listened to me, was helpful and eventually got me a FedeX form so I could send the phone off for service. The phone is now in a box waiting for FedeX to pick it up and bring it to the phone hospital. I am back to the K9 and I'm not sure I want the Audiovox back at this point. All this said, I have been reading reviews of this phone, and I really don't understand the complaints about Virgin itself. I am very happy with the service. I only wish they had better choices in an affordable flip phone, and I really wish they would do something about "Simone" the virtual phone service. I'm past a certain age and no longer speak hip. Otherwise the rates are very competetive, any money you pay in rolls over, and there are 3 options in order to figure out a plan that suits your needs. I am on a budget and pay as you go makes sense for me. I have looked at all of the other pay as you go plans and there is a use it or lose it clause in all of their pay as you go plans. If you really waste that much time on your cell phone, then you might want to get a contract service, but you might be better off getting a life instead. | 0negative

Clarity
Best headset I have ever used. Even in a fairly noisy car, the noise cancellation makes it crystal clear. Battery out-lasts my phone. | 1positive

This phone is a disaster!
I had my eye on this phone for quite some time, so once I heard Best Buy was carrying it, I ran to the store and purchased it this past October for $399 w/ 1 year contract extension. The phone had the famous low volume problem, which made the phone useless unless using the speakerphone or headset. Cingular/Motorola supposedly fixed the problem, and released the phone again with an updated firmware (the boxes were marked with an orange sticker). After Best Buy replaced my phone, I was very sad to find the updated model had even more problems! The volume is still VERY low and not fixed, and a number of additional bugs have been introduced. The most publicized problem being the Bluetooth headset problem. I eventually took the phone back, after a long battle with Best Buy and was given a store credit (now I'm stuck with an extended contract, and I could not get my replacement plan fees refunded).I am not the only one with this problem. If you do a Google search using the keywords: MPX220, VOLUME PROBLEM, FIRMWARE, BLUETOOTH HEADSET PROBLEM... You will see NUMEROUS postings and reviews with the same complaints. Sad thing is Motorola tech support is not acknowledging the problem, nor is Cingular.This entire experience made me a Motorola hater... This is very sad, because the phone does have some great features. The Quad-Band feature is great, and ensures you'll have reception all over the world. The Microsoft Smartphone software is AMAZING, and it was a joy not having to carry my PDA. Windows Media player is nice, and the expansion slot allows you to use the device as an MP3 player, camera, video recorder, etc. I would have to say this is one of the best Phone/PDA combos I have seen. Unfortunately, the volume problem makes the phone useless... And the numerous software bugs are impossible to overlook.My advice, wait until January/February before giving this phone a try... If Cingular is still selling it, it probably means they fixed the problems. I doubt they will keep selling a defected unit that long, so if it is not resolved by then, they would probably stop selling it.Most importantly, do your research on the net, and read what others have been saying. If the phone is improved, it will reflect in the buyers comments.Hope this helps! | 0negative

Excellent Headset for those who cant find one that fits
I personally have a hard time finding a headset that fits my ear. Most are too fat and fall off with a slight movement. This one fits nice, is reasonably comfortable and is very good for the price. The three ear pieces to choose from are great.The noise cancelling works great, I play CoD4 with this and never feedback in to game when i play it at a lovely 60+db from only 15ft away.Easy to set up, easy to use, comfortable, and fits small ears... great stuff! | 1positive

Great Stamina; Not Bulky
Stop fooling around with clipped conversations and embarrassing lost calls. Its so nice not to worry if you have enough juice to finish the call, or sweat the fact that you forgot to charge the phone last night. With this battery it'll wait till tomorrow. Just checked mine after two days off the charger. The phone still shows a fully charged battery. I have never had this battery go dead in use.My only concern was if the larger size would require a larger phone holder. It adds only a 1/8 inch in thickness, if that. The back fits just as well as the OEM, same color and everything. This is an easy decision. | 1positive

Excellent Headset to Compliment your Nokia N-Series Handset
I just recently bought a Nokia N73 handset and I have been having problems using my Motorola H700 and Sony Ericsson HBH-610 BT headset. I've been getting constant BT disconnects and I just got tired of it. Decided that I should go for the same brand of BT headset, considered getting the Nokia BH-900 headset but I think it's too big for my taste. Then I found the Nokia BH-800 BT headset, it justs work really well with the voice recognition of my Nokia N73, the voice quality sounds really clear, too! This color also matches/compliments my Nokia N73! I love this headset. | 1positive

Product damaged, no response by phone or email. Amazon had to take care of it.
ANTOnline sent a Lenmar battery were the case was barley held together by scotch tape on both ends once I open the package. The box was smashed but packaging was not. Emailed right away as instructed and waited for RMA or contact back. No response. Tried again plus tried calling but still no response so then I emailed Amazon. Amazon gave me a full refund after their investigation of the problem. Thank you Amazon. | 0negative

It Works
I was a little nervous buying this item, but so far the charger has worked for my 80GB black Video iPod. When I first plugged it in, the iPod started charging, but also started making a high-pitched quiet buzzing sound. After a few moments however, it went away.Also the prongs of the charger are sometimes difficult to put in to the iPod, and might get caught. Just be careful with it so you don't break it.Can't beat 1 cent, but I hope that this product works much longer than the price would suggest. So far so good. | 1positive

Doesn't work in a car
This is a gizmo apparently intended to take the place of a speaker phone for conference calls. It didn't work for what I wanted to use it for and I returned it to Amazon. I am certain there will be folks that find that they can find a purpose for this device. I didn't. I love electronic and gadgets, but they have to have a specific function. I just didn't get the purpose of this one. | 0negative

bad sound + echoes
I cant really tell between good quality sound and better quality sound, but these earphones sound horrible. THere is static, when listening to music, and the people your talking to hear echoes. It should be better to get an adapter and get a third party headset. (Though i never tried the adapter) | 0negative

Motorola H700
This headset is really easy to set up and use. Since my phone does not have voice dialing, I can't use the headset to voice dial. I have to dial the number on my phone and then talk using the headset. The volume is good and people can actually hear me too. This headset was $80 in radio shack. | 1positive

Motorola Mobile office tools
I purchased this item, wondering if it would really work for the price, since the usb cable alone was worth the purchase price. The software was easy to download and use, if you read the help section before trying to use it. Works Better than expected. Can't beat this item for what it does at this price. Motorola provides updates for the software. | 1positive

Not the correct size for the i355!!!!!!!!!
This battery is too narrow for the i355. It works, but sometimes shifts positions inside the phone causing the phone to loose power. | 0negative

Bad Reception / Bad Customer Service
Very limited hours for Customer Service and Warranty Department. I've spent at least 3 hours with them on the phone since I go the phone. Spent 45 minutes today without getting much help (just transfered from one deparment to another.) Treo has software update problems. 1 out of 4 calls I make lands at a random phone number and when people try to contact me the same happens (they sometimes get me but sometimes they dont'). Phone reception is not of high quality, there's lots of static. They have a lot to improve on this phone and Cingular Warranty Department has a lot to learn about customer experience. Also please note the slighly sneaky way that Amazon represents the phone. They provide you the quote for the phone but they leave out the fact that you have to pay an EXTRA CHARGE PER MONTH FOR WEB SERVICES!!! Once Cingular has you under the 2 year contract they can treat you however they want since you're locked in by the contract. Do yourself a favor and wait another year or two to buy a phone with similar features. | 0negative

Very comfortable
From the first time putting the Voyager 510 headset on, it was the most comfortable headset that I have ever tried on. Setting up was very easy. Power button was small, but got use to it. Tried it out with the PS3 and found that after 3 hours, still felt very comfortable on my ear. Battery life is excellent also. Did not shut down even after 4hrs of constant use on PS3. Clarity is great, but the only thing that was confusing was the Multipoint feature. Found out that both of my bluetooth devices,PS3 & cell, had to be on at the same time to switch between devices. It remembers the last paired device and will not automatically link unless you re-connect to the other device. Other than the confusion, this headset is A++. | 1positive

I love this stylus!
I ordered this stylus to color-coordinate with my mini iPad neoprene frame and zippered sleeve. I love the optional lanyards they sent me as I can pick and choose which one I want to use. I use the one with the coil so it expands for my use. I am right-handed so need to be able to stretch it over to the right side (it connects at the top left corner of my mini). | 1positive

Defective
I used to have a Motorola H500 which worked well for my phone. Unfortunately I misplaced it. So I eventually bought another one via Amazon. When I got it, it worked but had a hissing and crackle sound. I thought it was my phone and the problem would eventually go away. It did not. This was suppose to be a brand new headset. It's defective and I did not return it immediately. So I'm giving this supplier a 1 star. | 0negative

Waste of my valuable time and money.
What a contraption of garbage. Aside from VersaMail and the Web, this is as useless as they come. And this one comes right after your wallet.1. Documents to Go (D2G)I paid hundreds for this phone brand new from Verizon. Within a month or two, the D2G just doesn't even work anymore. Not whatsoever. In fact it restarts the phone if I want to open it.2. MediaI was hot-sync'ing pics and movies to my harddrive and there was a problem with "023" which did not even exist on the card/device. So I could not sync anything. Then I deleted pics from the hard drive and it deleted everything on the card as well, all on its own free will. I'm talking vacation pics. What a sorry deal this device really is. The camera doesn't even take good pictures. Everything is too dark and looks like quality from an old camera from the 50's. The camcorder doesn't save anything longer than about 50 seconds. Anything longer than this and it simply does not save and will not even give you the option to do so. Hundreds of dollars for this so far? I don't think so.3. ConnectionYou're lucky if you get a signal with this standing next to the tower itself. The sound is too quiet coming from the ear piece and from the phone itself, even on speaker phone the sound is just an inaudible din. I cannot even tell you how many times this thing has just lost connection and then blared that "DINT!" sound that it plays when the phone messes up.4. That "DINT!" soundThe phone makes an annoying loud sound when it is messing up. Whether that means it has no connection, is struggling to find a signal even when you're not on the phone, or the phone itself is just too slow to process simplist things. The only option you have for not hearing this pestering sound is to just turn off the sounds completely. You cannot hide from its authority unless you mute the whole thing. Pathetic.There are many more problems.It is not even worth talking about anything positive from this phone since its vaporized by the incredible disappointments that stack up just with every single use. It looks cool, has neat capabilities, but its a facade. The man behind the curtain is worth maybe $50 for what you really get and put up with. Oh my, what's that? My phone just "DINT!"'d 2 more times as I just typed that. I think it agrees that its worth $50 I guess.Don't buy this. I mean it. Don't! I have one right now and am cancelling the phone/net plan and am selling it on ebay. I spent alot on this phone and got nothing my A670 couldn't give me already.A child once asked me if when a Treo 650 dies if it goes to hell. The answer is yes. They go to hell for ever and ever.Fin. | 0negative

Very disappointing!
Let me just start by admitting I sure am glad I waited 6 months of owning the Razr v3 before writing a review. I was psyched when I got my new phone in December 2005 that it worked perfectly, it was just as stylish as promised, the screen resolution was (and is) excellent, and it was just great as I was used to the Motorola interface and all its little quirks.However, just six months later, my phone is unusable. Just--out of the blue--the all the keys stop working. Well, correction, one key still works: the power button. I end up having to drag out an old phone to use because--given a few days--the Razr miraculously recovers. However, it is tiresome hauling a back-up phone around!! I don't know what gives, but I'm tired of this little quirk which can be a major problem if I'm faced with an emergency. Overall, a very unstable, disappointing product. | 0negative

Saves money and the environment. IGO products are brilliant.
IGO products will save you money by only replacing the tips and not the whole power source. Saves space when traveling. Very convenient - these work perfectly. I have the power source for the home and the car & many tips. I love it & think it is a brilliant idea. | 1positive

horrible reception
I have 3 phones:nokia 6610, motorola v60g and sony ericsson T-610.Even with a broken antenna the V60g gives me better reception than the T 610. I have T-mobile on all three phones, so the T 610's poor reception couldn't be because of network problems.The camera quality is pretty poor and I sorely miss the loudspeaker option that is present in the 6610.I feel that the next phone that I'll buy is going to be a motorola; their phones are very intuitive to use as compared to nokia/sony ericcson.Also, before opting for T-mobile - please please please - check the network connectivity in your locality. I have been hanging out of my apartment window for too long now to try to get a signal. | 0negative

Excellent High End Headset - Great Performance!!!
I must say that I almost didn't buy this headset after reading the reviews on this site...especially the ones referencing muffled volume due to the boom touching their face. Well, I did make the purchase and I'm very pleased. I have received zero complaints from callers regarding a muffled voice. Below is a summary of my review:Clarity - excellent clarity up to about 10 feet. Clarity starts to decline after about 10 feet. Also, if there is not a clear line of site between the phone and the headset, clarity will be reduced. This seems to be the case with most BT headsets though.Comfort - This thing is incredibly small and lightweight. I wear the headset all day and barely notice that it's there. Also, this unit does not "flop" around on my ear. It fits very securely and I have a high level of confidence that it's not going to fall off!!!Volume - the volume is more than sufficient in all settings... quiet setting, in car with window down, in the airport, etc...Style - In my opinion, this is THE most stylish headset on the market.Connection - Call connection is very reliable and very quick. On outgoing calls, the headset is typically connected before the first ring and on incoming calls, the ringtone chimes in after about the second or third ring on my cell. It connects instantly after touching the call button.Setup - Pairing the unit was incredibly easy. The directions were spot on and after charging the unit (approximately two hours) I was connected in about 30 seconds. Extremely Easy!!!!Convenience - The Powerflip foldable mic is one of the most attractive features of this headset. It allows you to conserve battery life by "flipping" the mic to the off position when not in use. Flipping the mic outward turns the unit on and allows you to connect. Very "sexy" feature!!!In summary... I would definitely recommend the H700, especially at the price offered here at Amazon.Note: The only reason I did not rate this a five is because it advertises a 10 m (33 ft) range and this is absolutely not the case. However, I've found that this is falsely claimed on every bluetooth headset that I have tried. Therefore 4 is the highest rating that I can give... period... | 1positive

POOR POOR Customer Service!!! Don't Buy!!
We bought this phone for our 7 year old daughter who has a vision impairment. We thought the buttons were big enough and the phone would be easy to use. Trying to refill minutes, getting a new sim card and using their worthless internet site has been a nightmare!! Shop elsewhere! | 0negative

Comfortable design, but no one can hear you
This is a prime example of form over function. The headset itself is comfortable and form fitting. The earpiece sounds great if you find the sweet spot. However, the microphone piece does not pick up ANY sound - and this is after trying multiple sets. It was a great idea, but use some other headset instead. | 0negative

skips and short battery
I really thought this product would be all I was looking for--music/books in the background and phone control when needed. I've used wired headphones but my regular use while skiing, biking, and running made the long cord quite the inconvienence--especially after I ripped the cord on my best pair.In theory, these are great. But they have major weaknesses: it skips all the time (and I cant figure out why) and it runs out of battery before I finish the shortest workout (less than 2 hrs with music running)!In spite of that I still use it all the time and put up with its flaws. I probably wouldn't have bought it had I known before hand though. | 0negative

Nice but unreliable.
I bought one a few months ago and really liked it but it stopped working after 2 months. So I bought another one thinking it was just a bad apple but 2 months later... the 2nd one stopped working! I'm never going to buy one again- it's a waste of money. | 0negative

Problems
My friend got the 6030 w/ Tmobile Prepaid. I have had a Nokia 6010 w/ Tmo Prepaid for over a year. His phone is very disappointing. Construction is flimsy: it creaks and squeaks anytime you touch it. The buttons are tiny and challenging to manipulate.Worst of all - his reception is TERRIBLE! When I call him I frequently get his voice mail. His phone frequently will not get a signal. While this could be due to his location, I've held his phone in one hand, and my phone in the other hand. My phone acquires the network without trouble; his phone usually will not. He formerly had Tracfone and had much better reception with a Nokia 1100. I think his 6030 may be defective, and I urge him to return it for a different unit, but he doesn't have his receipt any longer, so he's worried about trying.It's too bad he didn't sign up when they were still using the 6010. | 0negative

Strong/good looking
This product is made of genuine leather , I get a feeling of good and proper protection for my treo 750.

This phone is good if you want to download rintones and the camera is not half bad but the volume on my phone is kinda low. and this "lookout guy" is starting to kreep me out because he does all this math crap... plus he says that your getting ripped off, i dont belive that because he says that u only get 100 daytime minutes opposed to 350 nights and weekend minutes. but just think to yourself "lookout guy".. when will you be using your phone as much? on the weekdays when u have important things to worry about like school or work, or when ur out having fun with freinds? over all this phone is pretty good but this " lookout guy" is kinda weriod. | 1positive

True and tested
Had many knives over my time. And this one will not let you down. Perfectly weighted. Sharp straight out of he box. I believe it to be more versatile than larger knives. For me anyway. It's just so easy to carry around but yet delivers great cutting and slicing. Not good for chopping, like you would with bigger knives but it makes up In other areas. For an all purpose, good American knife. Look no further. | 1positive

I went ahead and purchased this item even after reading all those negative reviews. Yesterday night it was working. I charged it overnight and today morning it is dead.

It clearly says it is not covered by any kind of warranty beyond 30 days.Luckily I have an older phone that I can use while I look for another one. | 0negative
