I recently purchased the new Motorola s10 bluetooth headphones. What a great headphone set. I have been using my stock Iphone ear buds for most of my music listening. What I have found as I do a lot of running / biking is that the cord is a pain.

The s10 is both sweat proof and wireless. I have paired it with my iPhone and my Media center pc. They are very comfortable to wear and also run in. I have not had a chance to bike with them, I’m guessing it may be an issue with the helmet. The over the ear took me a bit to get used to, but I am now very comfortable with it.

I got a few questions from friends regarding the range these work with. I am able to set my iPhone on the kitchen counter and go all over the house and listen to music.

The only minor issue I have is with the buttons. They are a bit hard to press right on the ear area. The location of the buttons is fine, they just are a bit hard to press.

Currently you can purchase these from Best Buy
or a few other retailers online.

Since I finally got a new phone (iPhone) my old blue tooth head-set a jabra BT250 (Info) did not seem to have that great of quality with the phone. I’m not sure if it was because it is 5 years old or that technology has changed. The BT250, as ugly as it is, treated me very well. I used it in the car and when I was at home.

Yesterday my new Blue Tooth arrived via usps. It is a Jawbone 2 (Jawbone) What a great headset. My kids were in the background during my last conference call and people did not even hear them, and I could hear the conversation (wow). I’m not sure how the noise canceling is done, but it is great.

So I am now back to being safe. Using a headset when driving and being able to hear, what a great thing. I was able to get the Jawbone 2 for ($69) from (mrbdepot.com)
