Wireless/Bluetooth Earbuds

Just out of curiosity, anyone here buy/use wireless bluetooth earbuds/headphones?

I am thinking of getting a pair and just wanted to hear some reviews or suggestions. I heard some good things about the Plantronics BackBeat Go earbuds...

Thanks in advance!

We're supposed to be getting them into the store where I work, so I've been doing a bit of research. Apparently the Go2 (click here) addressed all the problems the first model had (except the low battery life) and are apparently more comfortable based on the reviews I've seen.

This probably wasn't very helpful, but if you do happen to get them could you let me know what you think? I'm also considering getting them when they arrive in store, and unfortunately they don't allow me to test out products lol.

It looks like it's just online for now (at least that I can see). I'll see if I can find out when we're supposed to get them in at my work

I was looking into the same thing awhile back. You should check out the headphone bar on Broadway but the best prices will be found in the states, ie. Amazon or Fry's Electronics. I've heard great things about Jaybird products but i think they'll set you back a bit.

i have been using the BT Jabra sport when i go running & workout for about a year

my take:
quality kinda filmsy, overpriced, crappy sound
but if I lose it, I will probably go buy another one...mainly because there are so few other choice for wireless headsets that's good for the gyms.

I usually listen to audiobook so I dont care much about the sound quality..
for me, the most important thing is just the fit and comfort..I found the Jabra sport ear clip is just tight enough to stay in place when I am running, and not so hard and tight that it hurts my ear after 15-20 minutes...(which was problem I had with many other earphones and headbands before)
