Bluetooth Speakerphones

Hi,
I'm looking for a good bluetooth car visor device. My son uses the Motorola T505 Bluetooth speakerphone and loves it, but it's spendy. He really needs it for his work, so the price makes sense for him. I will need to do something as of January 1, when the laws in Oregon prohibit driving while talking on cell phones. I don't care so much for myself because it's just for my convenience, but my husband will need something good for work and I don't want to waste money on something that doesn't work well. I just ran across a great price on the Motorola T215 Bluetooth and was wondering if anyone here has used that one. Do you have an opinion as to which is better? I'm not so concerned about streaming music, as I have a nice sound system in my car.

Also, something I can't seem to clarify: if I'm listening to AM radio do I have to switch the radio station when a call comes in before I can answer it? Or does the device switch for me? I think I know the answer to that, but wanted to hear it for sure.
Thanks!
Jennifer

Re: Bluetooth Speakerphones

I use a Jabra SP700 and the switching to the radio is automatically done by the finger by tapping the side button on the Jabra SP700 to turn on the FM transmitter and then pressing the assigned FM button on the radio. After a few times the finger automagically accomplishes this difficult task.

Re: Bluetooth Speakerphones

I just ordered this one on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Communications...353499&sr=1-17

It had some decent reviews on multiple sites.

Re: Bluetooth Speakerphones

I have the T505 and love it also. It is pricey, but it gets the job done. It doesn't need to use the FM radio either. It has a built-in speakerphone and mic, so unless you want it to use the FM transmitter, it works just fine using its built-in speakerphone, and its quite loud also.

The T215 looks good if you just need a speakerphone. It doesn't have the FM transmitter like the T505 does it? It also looks like it has double the battery life of the T505.

Let us know how you like it!

Re: Bluetooth Speakerphones

T505 and T215 both are very good as Bluetooth Speaker phones.I don't think there is any problem when call interrupts radio listening.

Does the fm transmitter catch any garble at all? I have had a few "top dollar" fm transmitters perform really poorly because the output settings are so low especially in my car. god damm FCC
