2 out of 5 stars Works sometimes, but not others. Won't work with some cell phones   January 10, 2006

I have the lifter with the GN 6210. Sometimes, completely randomly, it just doesn't want to work and I have to run back to my phone to answer it. I must sayit has a good range for Bluetooth, better than my Jabra BT250 (which this is supposed to be the same thing as), but it doesn't answer calls on my Sony-Ericsson phone like my Jabra BT250 does, it will oly work when I make calls or transfer sound. It's nice that it works with both though. Don't leave it in your pocket or it can break, far too fragile. It picks up WAY too much background noise and, like the BT250, it completely useless in the wind. The tech support is not much help, when mine fails to work (about once a week) all they do is make me reset it then re-pair it, which works sometimes and not others. I'm sending mine in for a replacement. If I could do it all over, I would get a dedicated headset for my desk phone (NOT from GN) and a good bluetooth headset for my cell phone.


1 out of 5 stars Theoretically nice, terrible in practice   July 21, 2004

I received my 6110 Monday. Tuesday I tried very hard to convince myself to keep it. I even drove with it to GN Netcom's HQ and talked in person to their customer service people and repair department. Sadly, the unit does not perform well at all in my home environment, or in GN Netcom's lobby, or in my office. Its first problem is low volume when connected to a standard WECo 2500 phone. Even with all the controls cranked to their maximum settings, the volume is marginal at best, and not usable if the person at the other end is not very loud. GN Netcom's reply was that the unit was not designed to operate with standard phones, but only with "modern" electronic phones "all of which have a volume control". The claim was that the FCC(!) limits the dB level they can put into your ear, and since you can't turn the volume up on a standard 2500 set, it's just not going to be very loud.

I really liked the device, and still considered keeping it, but the other problem prevented that. There is a significant buzz on transmit, which bothers some people more than others. Some might just think it's background noise, but of course it's not. This noise was present when paired with the base station through my 2500 phone, when the base station was connected to an electronic phone we tried in Netcom's lobby, and is also present when using it with a D-Link Bluetooth DBT-120 and both a PowerMac G3 and a Titanium G4.

As much as I like the look and feel, I'll be returning it to Amazon in the morning.
