Can anyone advise on the best choice for a BT headset for the 3650. Bought the HDW-2 but the ear loops on both the original and exchange broke in the first day!! Jabra BT200 is just now releasing upgraded version in US that supports the "handsfree profile". Most recommend the SE HBH-60.

Thanks for the help!

Or try the new Sony Ericsson HBH-35. It works fine with Nokia 3650.

There has been some talk of the HBH-35 in the US; however, the release date is estimated for late summer (Sept/Oct). I'm really anxious to get cracking with using the full functionality (i.e. answer/end, call commands, transfer calls between sets, etc.). I noticed that you also own a 3650. Based on the two models available in the US known to be compatible with the 3650, what would be your expert choice and why? Jabra BT200, HBH-60?

Thanks, researching this hasn't been an easy trip!

I personally have an old Ericsson HBH-20 paired with my T39m. I've received a Jabra BT200 for review and enjoyed it.

Though question. I like the Jabra, and I believe the BT200 (this is not updated yet) could be as good as the HBH-60. But I liked the Sony Ericsson HBH-35 reviewed here too, when I used it with my Nokia 3650!

It's really personal preference. I think the Jabra "hides" better behind the ear, and since the HBH-35 will not be available in US until alte this year...

I picked up the SE HBH-60 today since the retailer had it on sale for only US$99.00. Cheaper than Jabra or Nokia. Devices paired immediately and range is better than what I experienced with the HDW-2!! It was too easy!!

I've used it through 2 recharges (about 3 hours talk time) and the headset hasn't dropped the connection as others have reported.

I have a 14 day "no questions" return policy so I'll try it out and keep the group updated.

Thanks again for the help!
