BlueAnt Z9...small, good clarity, can be paired with three different devices.

I have 2 that I use:
Blue Ant Z9 for extended use
Jawbone for use at the office
Both great clarity and sound...

Thanks for the input. With both of you recommending the Blue Ant Z9, it must be good. I will be buying one tomorrow. Thanks again.

The BlueAnt Z9 looks pretty cool. I lost my old Plantronics 510, so I am in need of a new one also. I really do like the Jawbone, my boss has it and really likes it, and he's the kinda guy that goes through 2-3 headsets every month, and it lasted him almost 3 months! Very impressive for him...

I have the WEP200 and have used it with the touch. I used it before with my treo 700p and loved it. Was a bit disappointed with it on my touch. Not sure if its the earpiece or the phone though. The volume is just extremely low. I'm constantly trying to increase the volume on it and my phone during conversations. Difficult to hear when I'm driving. I drive a 4x4 pickup but not incredibly loud. I'm looking into new earpieces but not sure if the low volume is something I will encounter with all of them. Hope this helps.

WEP200 sucks with the Touch because of the volume. It was very loud with other phones. Get the Z9 instead. They're less than $60 shipped.

I was just reading about the Z9. One thing that I think gives the Z9 a huge advantage over the Jawbone is the charging connector. The Z9 uses a Mini-USB. Those are everywhere. The Jawbone uses a proprietary connector. If you forget to bring it on a trip, you're SOL. The Z9 is also quite a bit smaller and can pair to multiple devices. The jawbone was originally designed to connect to two devices, but they took away that ability. The Z9 is also firmware upgradeable. It seems like a hands-down winner to me.
