• Easy and secure attachment: attach the Bluetooth cellular phone adapter to the back of your existing cellular phone or wear it on your belt with the enclosed belt pouch.
• Digital clarity with up to a 30-foot range: Bluetooth technology allows the M1500-MOT to be up to 30 feet away from the cellular phone or Bluetooth adapter and still provide clear sound.
• Extended talk time: high-capacity rechargeable batteries provide up to 2.5 hours of talk time and 60 hours of standby; the M1500-MOT can be recharged in just one hour and can be used while charging.
• Easy control access: simple and intuitive controls on the headset allow the user to raise or lower the headset volume or mute their conversation.
• Superior sound: an adjustable noise-canceling microphone eliminates background noise and delivers clear and reliable transmission, vital for voice-enabled applications.
• Lightweight comfort: weighing less than an ounce, the M1500-MOT features a flexible earloop to ensure a snug, comfortable fit.

3.0 out of 5 stars Works fine but ear hook self destructs, January 25, 2005

This review is from: Plantronics M1500-MOT Bluetooth Hands-Free Cell Phone Headset (Office Product)

This worked pretty well for me as far as making a connection goes, but it fails the test as a usable piece of aparatus because the ear hook is so fragile. I broke both of mine after a few days of not very intensive use. I received a replacement from plantronics but I can see that the plastic is already starting to show stress marks. There is simply too much weight on the plastic peg.

The retrofit adapter is not viable for anything other than testing the waters or adding to a fixed phone. To get any advantage from bluetooth you really have to have the bluetooth capable phone. The earpiece works great with my HP iPaq phone.

I would look at one of the newer models that has a more robust design.
