 Satisfied November 27, 2006
I have never owned a bluetooth headset prior to the Cardo Scala-500. I have a Treo 650 and the bluetooth connection was easy to establish. I've used this headset for about 5 months and I have not experienced any technical problems. I'm not excited about the blue flashing light...My headset is black and is often unnoticed until people see the blue blinking light; then they feel compelled to let me know my ear is blinking. However, I didn't like the look of the headsets with booms that extend along the cheek. Most importantly, my husband agrees that we have clear, static-free conversations (within 10-15 ft). Also, the device maintains a reasonable charge.
Excellence!!! September 11, 2006
I currently own A PPC-6700. I have been on a few forums and a lot a people who own this phone have said that it works well with it. I received this headset a couple of days ago and it works very well. The distance is limited to about 15-20ft. It connects without a problem. I only get static if when I too far out of range. I have no complaints.Volume is perfect, in fact sometimes its too loud.
Between what I hear and what I read I seems that the performance of bluetooth headset vary and that most seems to be dependant on the phone you are using.
 Get Plantronics Voyager 510 Instead August 9, 2006

I returned the Scala-500 for 3 reasons: 1) It's not comfortable. 2) It's range is only about 5 feet (with LG VX5300). 3) The person on the other end hears an echo of both our voices plus tons of background noise. Yuck!
Did I get the same headset? July 15, 2006

I have owned many different headsets including several Motorola, Jabra and Plantronics headsets. I am a 4000 minute a month user of my cell phone for business and work with many others that are similar. Virtually everyone I know would say that this is bar none the best headset ever. I get excellent reception (both transmitting and receiving). The standby and talk time are unsurpassed even when compared to headsets 5 timew more expensive. Very comfortable and easy to use. I would recommend this headset to anyone. I am using it with a Treo 700W and it works great in everyway. Buy this headset and save yourself the expense of trying the rest first.
 Be warned if you buy this headset. April 14, 2006

I bought a blue headset for my Sony Ericsson Z520a, and I returned it because it was such a poor quality product. It would be full of static if I had it in my left pocket and on my right ear. It picks up every little sound in the area. I would lose the bluetooth signal walking 15 feet from my phone in the bedroom to my sink in the bathroom. There is not even a wall in the way, I could see my phone! Walking home from work, my girl could hear the little crickets in the field, and a train a mile away sounded like it was right next to me. When a car would pass by, it was so loud that it actually hurt her ear. A slight wind made such a noise on her end that it 'sounded like I was in a hurricane.' So Cardo's claims about wind noise reduction and traffic noise has not been proven true to me. I returned the unit to Amazon, and was sent a black one as a replacement, and it is doing the same things. As far as the comfort goes, I found that once I bent the ear piece, it was really comfortable. In conclusion, this is a cheap headset, and you get what you pay for.
