5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Little Device!, December 28, 2009

I bought this device for my wife with some skepticism but decided to try it based on the reviews I read here and other sites.

When the device arrived I was a little alarmed at how small the manual was and thought I had made a mistake.

I next tried to pair the device to my wifes LG VX 8350 phone. The device paired up immediately but did not load the phone book, I did a search on the web and found that you had to go through a strange procedure to allow the phonebook to be uploaded from the phone.

The procedure was

1: Make a call
2: Receive a call
3: MISS a call.

I am not kidding, once I did this the phone book uploaded without issue and has continued to do so.

Note: This was NOT the Parrots fault but the fault of the LG phone.

After that, I pressed the green button on the parrot and the voice asked me "Who do you want to call" I spoke a friends name and the device immediately dialed the number!

The reception was crystal clear!

Stunned, I tried another friend who has a last name that is hard to pronounce. Again the system called it without hesitation.

Once I hung up another friend called and the device said his name with reasonable accuracy. Again the reception was fantastic.

This little device is working so well I have recommended it to two friends and will be purchasing another one for myself.

Don't hesitate to buy this, it works very well!

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Good, January 8, 2009

At first I was skeptical about how this item would help, but it has it's own voice dialing that syncs with your phone via Blue Tooth. The voice dialing is the best I have ever used. The volume is good. People seem to be able to hear me properly. I have not had to charge it yet and I have used it about 2 weeks. The only thing that I don't like is how far you have to get from the car to disconnect the Blue Tooth. The other option is a Parrot that would be installed in the car. This would cost at least $200 and feature better sound for me, automatic charging, and automatic off. I may just wait for my next car to have built in Blue Tooth.

This review is from: Parrot SLIM Bluetooth Portable Speakerphone (Wireless Phone Accessory)

I really like this little device. Good sound quality, attractive, nice and slim takes up very little space, simple to use. If I could add anything else to this device it would be a power on indicator led.
