Re: The Best Bluetooth device for the Touch......

I'm using a BlueAnt Supertooth speakerphone setup. It works pretty well, loud enough when driving around town but freeway speed and road noise can make it a little tough for me to hear. I like the slide out mic for turning it on and off. The only downside is that there's a clip that goes on your visor and then a magnet on the supertooth holds it to that clip and when you push the microphone back into the device to turn it off, the magnet wants to give way so it's almost a two handed operation to truly turn it off. Not good if driving but I rarely need to completely turn it off while driving anyways.

I loved my Plantronics 640 in ear setup (light and good sound) but no noise cancellation and the ear gels get nasty after a while of being in my ear and then laying in the cup holder and back and forth. Replacement ear gels certainly solve that but that's the one problem with in ear units.

I've got a Z9 right now but it doesn't fit in my ear very well and I hate the ear loop. I've seen some other folks complain about it's fit but it seems to be about 80% who love it and 20% who can't get it to fit. Guess I'll have to wait until Plantronics comes out with a better noise cancelling headset....
