1.0 out of 5 stars Too much hype... ignore it all., August 28, 2008

By	K. spietz "spider" (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I really thought I had made the best purchase based on the reviews. I think somebody was bought off. The sound on the other end is terrible and it pretty much sucks on my end too. I got nothing but complaints when using it. The icing on the cake was when its connector to the sun visor snapped off. I am chalking this one up to experience. If the review sounds too good and looks to slick to be true, it probably is. I just bought the new 3G iPhone which has an updated and outstanding speaker and mic system that gives me the best speaker phone I have ever used. I just lay it on up the dash under the glass and the people on the other end can't tell me if I am moving or not. As usual, Apple knows how to do it right.

5.0 out of 5 stars My Experience with SurfaceSound Compact, January 14, 2009

By	Hanguo Laohu (Los Angeles, CA, USA) - See all my reviews

I've noticed the majority of Amazon reviews are negative on this item. I feel compelled to write this review as my experience has been great with this product. I can't speak for other people, but I bought this item because of iLounge.com's Best of Show 2008 award and review. I bought the Bluetrek model from Expansys for around $50, I don't know why Contour Design is selling it for $100. Anyway, as soon as I pull down the microphone,this pairs seamlessly with my iPhone every time. It pairs much more consistently than my $600 Alpine stereo with Bluetooth kit. The sound quality is very good, and the volume is LOUD. The design is very simple so it doesn't attract attention. I'm picky, but I really love this product. The only problem I encountered was I misplaced the car charger, and didn't know how to recharge this item as it appeared to use a proprietary plug. Now I know that the plug is microUSB, so I assume it can be charged with any microUSB-USB cable to any USB port.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great when it works, but if there are problems......, February 12, 2009

By	Warren R. Amole III (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This gizmo is a joint product of two companies: Contour Design and Bluetrek and is just the item you need if you live in a state where talking on a cell phone is illegal while driving. That's the reason I purchased it.

In the beginning, it worked great but lately there have been a couple of disconcerting issues and I've found there is basically zero support network to fall back on. Although both companies have web sites, there is only marketing and product information and very little support information, just a couple of email addresses that I haven't had much luck with.

I paid $80 for it so I'm a little more angry than I would be at $59 but still.....

It's worth while doing a little research before you click the BUY button to make sure there's a support organization to fall back on.....
