I'm looking for a new Bluetooth headset to work with my Sony Ericsson P900. The last one I had was a Sony Ericsson HBH-35 which worked reasonably OK most of the time but wasn't very comfortable.

However that stopped working a few weeks ago so I went for a Jabra BT250v, which was really comfortable on my ear but I couldn't get it to work with the P900, even on the latest firmware version.

So if any PHers know of any decent headsets that work with the P900 I'd be delighted to hear about them.

TIA. :)

I have a Motorola HS850.

It's a very good headset, and I did a lot of homework on it.

Sadly it doesn't work 100% with the P900 but that is the P900's fault (it works fine on all the other phones I have tried (SPV, 2xNokias).

The good thing about this handsfree is that it has a very short startup time. So, when the phone rings, you switch on the handsfree and it connects to the phone and answers - great, as it saves wasting juice with the handsfree being on standby.

The flaw is that the P900 doesn't like this - when you switch on the handsfree it answers and then immediately drops the call Doesnn't happen with any other kind of phone...

But, not much of a problem, you just leave the handsfree on standby which is what you have to do with every other one on the market!

So, my advice : Motorola HS850, and upgrade the phone as soon as!

Ok so its pictured with my 7610, but I also have a P900 and it works fine with that too (5p piece for scale purposes).

Highly recomended headset (only wieghs 10gm)

Ps. Stopped using the P900 as the 7610 is a far better phone at the end of the day. IMHO
