I have used both the SONY HBH-60 & HBH-65 with my Sony P900.

I find that the Battery life is rubbish, and the headset turns itself off and loses the connection to my P900 all the time. This causes me much confusion as to if the call has dropped or the connection dropped.

Anyway I am considering purchasing the Motorola HS 810 ... I know its not SE.. and I really dont want to do it. But I have heard such good things about the HS810, not to mention the nice blue light it has!

The battery lasts much longer.

Can you use Voice activated dialing on it though?
When someone calls you do you hear the persons name (whatever you have stored in you P900 for voice dialing) in the headset before it rings?

Your thoughts Ladies and Gents!

I've just got a Jabra 250 and a Bluetrek G2 for trials at work. Battery life are very similar, and pairing/connections have been easy and trouble free so far.

The Jabra is very comfortable, good battery life, easy to use "action" button (the volume +/- buttons I have trouble finding because they are below and behind your earlobe!)

The G2 on the other hand is sooooo light you could almost forget its there. 12 grams! It's not as comfortable though, so that undermines the light weight. Buttons are a bit plasticy, but easy to find.

The old headsets we had were HBH-30 (or 35, can't remember, the ones with the long mic). Either of these headsets is a big improvement.

The connection problems are on account of the P900, not your SE headset. I have an HBH-60 and have never had problems with it until I got a P900. It worked perfectly with the T39, T610 and Nokia 3650. Hopefully these problems will be fixed in future releases of the firmware.

I like the HBH30/35. Design is good, over-all performance is good, and comfort is good as well. I didn't like how the HBH-60 looked... it looked like a Stabilo® marker stuck to your ear. I like the split design of the HBH30/35 where the battery is in the ear loop... this distributes the weight better, and the headset feels lighter even though you have a bigger and heavier battery... so you get the battery-life without the 'heavy on the ear' feeling.

I think the HBH-65 looks much better than the 35, but this is much to do with personal tastes.

I know that the Bluetooth profile is still really bad on the P900, why is this so? Cant they at least sort this out. You would think SE would have learnt from the P800 mistakes.

I think I am going to buy the MOTO headset, the battery lasts longer and you can do everything you can with the 65 only better!

I am using the Motorola 810 headset on my P800 and whilst I agree with other posters that this is a good headset it is far from trouble free. As others have pointed out this is more of an issue with the BT set up on the P800/P900 and as far as I can see most users are having some problems with all of the BT headsets. With the MOTO i get an occasional complete lock up of the phone which requires a reboot, and also I get around 1 in ten instances of the headset not being able to get the call.
