This is a great product for using with SKYPE and with your cell phone. It cuts down on outside noise and the microphone is great.

I bought this product because it has USB to connect to your computer. If you use this handfree with cell phone it works perfect, but when you connect it through USB it takes many cpu cycles, making my computer slow during voice chat. I noticed this behavior while using Skype. Other than that, it installed automatically on my Vista box, without any drivers.
Windows down on the freeway! July 29, 2007

Several cell phone savy folks recommended Plantronics versus the Motorolas - so I trialed *3* Plantronics against my old H850. They are models: Explorer 350, the Discovery 665 and the Voyager 510. I must say that this middle priced range of headsets ($50-$99 for these 3) is the best - hands down! (Awesome price on Amazon by the way...)
After paring them to my Blackjack (with AT&T Service) I decided to put them through the ultimate noise test...I-5 Seattle. The other 2 models: the caller on the other end was VERY quiet with the volume maxed out, windows up and sterio off. However, the Voyager's volume was maxed and plenty loud and clear that a decrease in volume was in order. In fact, I challenged it further by rolling the windows down, sun roof up and the caller stated that she could only hear a minor difference in background noise ~ON THE HWY~. Saaaweeeeet!
Since I didn't want to make it a trip to the state of Oregon, I decided to jump off of the freeway. Again, windows down -I added the radio noise on a low-mid volume. Wonderful! No complaints of echoing on either end, no break-ups (which could be b/c of one's service provider?) and the headset was snug and comfy.
Other great attributes you might ask? The Voyager is fast & easy to turn on and to wear. I can also use it as a hands-free headset on the business landline if I buy the cradle.
Yes, it is on the larger side, but you don't notice it when you get used to it. Besides, the other ones feel a lot less secure on the ear nor are they able to reach the audible part of one's face as well.
My only complaint is that it doesn't come with a car or usb charger - just the wall charger. (The car charger can't cost too much dough.)
Compared to the Motorola H850...all three blew this one out of the water. It would get an 'F' grade due to the high noise levels, occassional echoing and extremely low volume on regular streets.

I will have to admit, this is my first headset to own and use. I researched a lot to find a headset that would be comfortable on my ear and have quality audio on both sides of the conversation. The Voyager 510 has all of this. It is however larger than most, if not all of the bluetooth headsets out on the current market. So if you don't mind a little larger headset, this is a great buy. It has great battery life and has a large radius to reach your bluetooth device. It currently works seamlessly with both my computer and Razer cell phone. To keep it protected, I got an old Altoids metal box, padded the inside, and I keep my headset in there when I am mobile.
