Jabra SP700 Bluetooth Speakerphone Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a really cool device.
I got one for my wife so she could answer and talk on the phone without looking for her headset and turning it on.
Product works as advertised, and in fact has a number of novel features.
The only "Con" is that it does not support a 2 phone household. It can only be paired to a single phone. It does not support multipoint or dual pairing like some other prodicts (the Jawbone headset). This means that to reconnect it to the secondary phone you must pair it again.
Other than that:
1) It's very loud. easy to hear
2) uses standard USB to charge
3) The FM feature allows you to listen to the caller through your car stereo
4) the caller ID of the caller is spoken to you and broadast on your radio using RDS (so you can see the text of the phone number). Very nead.
5) it announced when it has turned on, off, paired, enabled FM. It's fantastic to get this audible feedback so you know it's working.
I highly reccomned this to anyone who needs a speakerphone for their car. My only caveat is that if you plan to share a car with 2 people it's not so great unless one person only uses the SP700. I would have given it 5 stars if it supported dual pairing.

Accessory Power FlexSmart Car Mount System for PALM PRE SmartPhones - Cutting Edge FM Transmitter and Charger with DC Surge Protection and Stabilized Flex-Neck Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I got this as a gift for Xmas and was excited about the possibility of hands free calling/charging/music playing all at once.
I do not find it to live up to all of my hopes.
Pros
-The product is sturdy as swivels nicely to be at an angle where it wont fall out.
-Bright blue indicator light at the base lets you know its plugged in and the power is working.
Cons
-Does not fit the Pre nicely. Had to significantly modify it to hold the pre in place because of the side charging plug. Originally the pads that hold it in place covered this part of the phone. The kit does come with pads you have to stick on the bottom to expose the charging plug, but it ends up sitting half out of the dock.
-No integrated microphone to base. This means you have to use the pre's mic for hands free calling, which often ends up in me yelling at the caller to hear me over road noise.
-The sound quality was ok while it worked. There was some noticeable distortion on songs I played through pandora/phone calls, but it was listenable. About 2 weeks in to using it, it developed a whomping noise I can not get rid of no matter what I try.
-The cables for power plug in that it comes with are ridiculously long. It leaves a lot of overlap that either hangs or has to be tucked in somewhere.
Overall
If they improved some of the shortcomings this could be a good product, however there are enough things holding it back for me not to reccomend it.
