    Excellent info, thanks!!

    Could you please upload the comparison chart to somewhere so that the columns are visible? (I can host the chart HTML if you need on my own server.)

    Then, I'll link it in from my Smartphone & Pocket PC Magazine Expert Blog - it's certainly worth it. (I've linked in several similar reviews / comparisons already; see for example http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/ind...&c=1&tb=1&pb=1 )

    Cool, thanks for the update!

    I've converted the stuff to HTML (with, of course, keeping your Copyiright info and the link to this thread) and posted to my blog / to major PPC boards (linking in this thread).

    The chart is here: http://www.winmobiletech.com/sekalai...Chart1022.html

    thanks
    I returned jabra because the poor a2dp performance, but HSP/HFP works well, though it's not good as plantronics
