Just got my HBH-60 a couple of days ago... I LOVE IT!!! As far as problems with call quality when driving, I really haven't found that quality is any different than when using the wired portable handsfree that came with the phone... I've always had to turn the radio down, etc, and even close the sunroof sometimes (if it's really windy).
My phone has locked up a couple of times (which it never did before), but nothing too serious... my firmware version is R3A023, so that could part of the reason, but it's tough to get an upgrade where I am.
At first I wasn't sure I could justify the $$ for the HBH-60, but now that I have it, there's no question... What a great product!

Its a very normal problem,..bluetooth headsets do generally not work that well in noise enviroments.
Funny enough, our Bluespoon is actually doing ok, when you're driving a car, hehe. I've had calls from quite a lot of people driving, and I can actually hear them.
BUT basically, bluetooth headsets are having difficulties in these enviroments.
The problem is always the "other person hearing you",..meaning the headsets microphone.
So you need to remove the background-noises,..a bigger boom doesnt solve the problem,..so the way to do this is by "going digital".
I dont believe theres any other way, at the moment, to do this.
Its the main reason for us, doing the Digital Bluespoon.
And yes,..you can drive in a car using this,..and also use it in other noisy enviroments
I think we'll see other digital headsets soon.

nice little advertisement, Mr. Nextlink Marketing Guy... I've heard comments on eSato before about echo and poor call quality etc, but I am simply not having any of these problems... even though I haven't been enlightened enough to want to go and get myself a Bluespoon.
I get ZERO echo with my HBH-60, callers can't tell I'm using a headset, and I can hear them just fine. Just yesterday I actually accepted a call with it when my phone was on my desk 30 feet away, and call quality was still as clear as ever... and as far as driving, that's when I use my HBH-60 the most... no problems. Lucky me, I guess!
So perhaps Nextlink isn't the only headset manufacturer that is sorting these problems out...

one more thing about a bt headset....i was talking outside my office (partition with fiber wall/ glass window) the phone rang and my hbh60 still manage to detect the call...of course the signal is very bad unless I walk back into my office.

I have the HBH-60. It says on the box that you should get 2.5 hours of talk time or 70 hours of standby. Currently I am getting about 80 minutes of talk time and six hours of standby time when it dies. Anyone else getting such bad performance?

Thats just facts,..not advertising. Others are doing digitals too/or going in that direction,..as I also state.
Its the only way to get a real good sound...and you know as well as I do, that people want better and better things all the time,..just take a look at computers/graphic cards/monitors etc.
And no, I dont advertise in here,...what I do is to inform our users here at Esato, on progress and so forth with our products.
Nobody ever complained about that before

there've been an improvement to hbh60.
you can check on the back side of the headset, you can see some marking on the back Sonyericsson blah blah
try to look for R?? mine is R1E and someone in Esato is using older R1C...so different version also have different performance.
one of the way to solve our problem is to flash phone software or complain to Se service point. Mine is still older software for T39...when I am free, definately will flash it to see what is the improvement.

My hbh-60 problems:
1. First one had a horrible BT connection, always sounded like I was far away from the phone. Sent it back to Expansys US
2. Second one sounds good BUT there is a buzzing noise on the line. It sounds like that "gsm buzz" that my motorola phone would occasionaly make. I can't hear the buzzing noise but those I'm talking to can.
My hdw is R1B and my phone is the T39m (R4a).
Is this an issue w/ the T39 and the 60? It doesn't sound near as good as my hbh-15. I'd like to keep the hbh-60 but not if it sounds that way with all other phones.
Thanks!

Jan,
I certainly wasn't complaining about your post... just a little bit of playful sarcasm, as I have noticed many of your posts here and there.
I also don't dispute that better and better headsets will continue to be released... I was just saying that I really haven't been having the problems that you indicate are fairly standard on "non-digital" Bluetooth headsets.
Cheers.
