1.0 out of 5 stars It wasn't for me, January 27, 2009

By	David Talmage (Alexandria, VA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

After reading about the Callpod Dragon V2 on Engadget or Gizmodo (I forget which one), it seemed like the right headset to get. It offered very long range, excellent noise reduction, and walkie-talkie calling to another BT headset using optional Callpod software.

Alas, the thing didn't work for me at all. It wasn't comfortable. It wouldn't stay on my ear. It bounced around when I was the least bit active (e.g. when walking up or down stairs). The people I called on it said that the voice quality was "adequate". I expected better. What's worse, I couldn't hear my callers when I used it in the car. My Mazda Miata is noisy but I can hear just fine most of the time using the cheap, wired earbud that came with my Motorola phone or the Jabra BT set before I broke it :-( . I expected the fancy Callpod Dragon V2 to do better than that. Instead, it was an exercise in frustration.

I returned it to Amazon.com for a refund. Amazon made it easy. All I had to do was to print the shipping label and manifest that they created for me, box up the headset in its original container, and drop it at the Post Office. It took a little over a week for Amazon.com to credit my account.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent headset!, August 12, 2009

By	Peggy Graybill (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews

I have used several headsets over the years and I find the dragon to have very good sound with its dual mic system. It pairs easily with phone or computer. I have used it with Skype and also listen to music with it. Combined with the Callpod drone, I am able to easily walk throughout my house without static or fade. I have addressed the issue of fitting the ear by bending the loop once I have figured the angle that I need to have the clearest sound with the mics. I have had one headset on one ear for cell phone calls, and one on the other listening to music from my computer. I look a little bit like Princess Leah but I figure any bluetooth headset that is functional will not make the highest fashion statement.

1.0 out of 5 stars Dragin V2, January 17, 2009

By	Steve - See all my reviews

I only wish I could give it a lower rating. Every aspect of the Dragon was poor. When I first charged it, I was unable to get a full charge after more than 3 hours. I could never get a good fit where it stayed in place over the ear. Ending calls or turning it off was no easy task either. The only good thing about my experience was that I finally lost it and will have to replace it with a different headeset.
