Good product. Bluetooth sync was easy and quick. Solar charging appears to work well even on cloudy days. Can be a little tricky to manage functions (press button for varying seconds to initiate tasks) but once learned, it functons well. Can also be used in meetings, sound quality is good.

The concept is fabulous. I can't get it to pair with my LG 8350 and repeated emails to the manufacturer are ignored. Will have to return it. Not a happy camper.

5.0 out of 5 stars Surprisingly good bluetooth speaker--with solar recharging, August 10, 2008

I was starting to research various bluetooth speakers when I noticed what appeared to be a too-good-to-be-true price on the Anycom SCK-1 at one of those sale-of-the-day sites. I had never heard of Anycom and was suspicious that it might be a cheap off-brand-piece-of-crap. I was wrong. I charged it up by booking the usb cable into my MacBook instead of plugging into the powerblock or car charger that Anycom supplied. The solar panel does an amazing job of keeping the unit charged--even better than indicted in the manual. It's been four months since it's initial "plug-in" charge and only today did I have to plug it back in to charge--after leaving it turned on in a dark garage for quite a while. One small caveat--when it fully discharges, the solar panel will struggle to recharge it, especially through the tinted glass in cars. (The tinted glass doesn't make a difference keeping the unit charged. It only matters when the unit is beeping at you to recharge it.) It began beeping once while I was traveling and I hadn't brought the charging cables. I just took it up to my hotel room and laid it in an open window for a few hours and it was satisfied enough to stop beeping at me.

Oh yes, the sound. The people on the other end of the line are amazed I'm speaking to them on a speakerphone even when I have the top down on my convertible in busy city traffic. Of course, I may have trouble hearing them with the top down, since noise reduction technology on any bluetooth accessory only works on the microphone, not the ear piece (too often people think the noise reduction technology will help them hear better, but it actually only helps their callers hear them).

I am very happy with the Anycom and have recommended it to my friends.
