In spite of the theory that all bluetooth headsets should work the same with all phones, my Nokia headset performs poorly with the JasJar, does anyone have any recommendations in this area, ideally a boom style headset like the HS-4W.

I dont have a JasJar but i do have a Blueant X3 Micro which I love. Has worked great with lots of devices including my recently retired HTC Apache.

Sadly its very very micro, and I cant find it at the moment.

Sorry I'm in Welly, however I strongly recommend shopping around.
Just yesterday I found something that I bought retail was $550+ cheaper than it was online.  Money mouth
According to the BlueAnt website the RRP (recommended retail price) is $109.00 AUD.

All the best and if you have any comments on my review please post them on the review page Cool

Well, I now have 3 bluetooth headsets, Nokia HS-4W, Axom and a Blue Ant X3 that don't work with my JarJar. Although they connect the microphone quality is so poor they are unusable. oh well, notch that up to experience.

Interesting, because I have a BlueAnt and it works perfectly with my Jasjar...

Seems better if I put the JasJAr very close to the headset, not something I have to do with my Nokia, but hey, my Nokia is a Phone and the JasJar is a PocketPC with a token phone gesture.

ps. when you initiate a Video Call, does you JasJar trigger the voice dial function? Mine does each time, I have to cancel the voice dial and press the cideo call button again.
