2.0 out of 5 stars Cool idea, but it doesn't work very well, August 9, 2006

I thought this kit would be nice because there is no installation and it's easily moved to another car if you want. Sadly, it just doesn't work very well. The mic is WAAAY too sensitve. It picks up every possible sound (traffic, road noise..etc). The kit worked well when the car was parked, but not well at all when actually driving. Poor sound quailty + unreliable performence = returned for a refund.

2.0 out of 5 stars Parrot is a dead bird, October 5, 2007

I had this device for a few months. The menu system is completely worthless and the instructions might as well have been written in some lost language. Next the car charger adapter fell apart in my cigarette lighter and took a tweezer to get the parts back out of the little hole. After reassembling the darn thing it worked for a few weeks and then just died. No light, no sound, nothing. I checked the power, the fuse and everything is fine. It just did not work. The Parrot website was equally worthless. I used the link to email for tech support but they never got back to me.

The idea of a plug in, no charging required, no thingie in your ear handsfree device is great. The execution is only fair. I have had one of these for 3 or 4 years and it works reasonably well, better at low speeds with low ambient sound levels. Forget it with the sunroof open. It is entirely independent of the stereo system, which means no button pushing with incoming calls and the stereo need not be on. No FM transmitter nonsense. I still have to dial calls by hand. Most times I can have an acceptable, duplex conversation but sometimes I can't hear the caller or they can't hear me- seems to vary with their phone. Voice dialing doesn't work, largely because my Treo doesn't support voice dialing and the software app is poor. I can't understand why somebody doesn't make a better version of this concept.
