Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Introducing FreeSpeak--cord-free comfort and hands-free convenience in a Bluetooth headset. JABRA FreeSpeak is the ultimate hands-free and wire-free solution that connects your mobile phone to your headset via Bluetooth radio technology instead of a wire. FreeSpeak works up to 30 feet away from your mobile phone. Talk freely even if your phone is inside a briefcase, a pocket, or across the room. All calls are transmitted wirelessly to your earpiece. FreeSpeak gives you easy, intuitive access to volume controls and features LED and audible status indicators.

Weighing less than an ounce, FreeSpeak is made of a soft, sound-absorbing elastomer material that reduces distortions, resulting in crisp sound quality. The earpiece and microphone boom fit behind either ear for a comfortable, secure fit. The earpiece also features the new JABRA MiniGel, an evolution of the patented EarGel. This soft, ergonomic gel tip channels sound directly into your ear for better reception. This improves your ability to hear conversations clearly even in noisy environments.

FreeSpeak comes with a charging cradle which doubles as the headset holder. The charging cradle includes a snap-on clip to hold the earpiece to your belt or purse when not in use.

4.0 out of 5 stars Wonder How I Managed Without It., October 29, 2004

This review is from: JABRA FreeSpeak Bluetooth Wireless Headset and Base (GN9010-BT) (Office Product)

My wife bought this item a year ago and since then it has remained an integral part of my ear, to the extent where some of my friends think I'm growing it. That apart, the design fits very snugly around the ear, unlike the other devices from Nokia, Sony Ericsson etc, it's attractive enough to make heads turn at crossroads, discos, pubs and wherever one seeks attention. Functionally, it works flawlessly although sometimes it tends to cut off and one must reset it by placing it into charge mode again. But these instances are maybe twice a year. Transmission is decent but tends to suffer if there is too much breeze, airconditioning close by etc. Reception is generally good but a lot depends on the service provider. All in all I'm very happy with it and wonder how others, myself included managed without it for so long. And yes, the charge lasts around 36-48 hours depending on usage.
