BlueAnt V1
User: Marc Schlesinger, Mar 25, 2009
Pros:
Excellent Product
Cons:
None
I just purchased the BlueAnt V1 for my Sprint Treo 755p and it works extremely well. The V1 will answer the 755p by voice command and I do hear the voice caller ID just fine.
I primarily bought this because driving a 1979 VW Bus 4-speed leaves me without a free hand to use my cell.
The Bus is very noisy inside and no one has any problem hearing me at all. The noise cancelling works very well.
The V1 is almost weightless, well fitting and comfortable. You forget you have it stuck in your ear. It paired right up and I have had no issues at all. It does sometimes screw up on the voice commands if I mumble a bit but if I speak clearly the Voice Commands all work correctly.
I really like the "Tie Clip" and it does stay on my shirt as I walk around the office all day.
The only major compliant is with the Treo. As with other posters here, I can only do a Blue Tooth Voice dial for Voicemail. I do not understand why that should work and the 2-9 Speed Dial positions do not.
Reports say the Treo 755p does not work at all with BT dialing but it sure does with Voice Mail (1). On the 755p, the voice mail Speed Dial is hard coded and cannot be changed. I figured I could at least change Speed Dial 1 for my home or office.
BTW, if you want to try to enter a number instead of a letter in the Speed Dial Quick Key, simply press the MENU KEY on the 755p (The Menu Key is located in the bottom right hand corner of the 755p keyboard).
You will get a Menu and choose Keyboard. You can then enter any single digit number into the Quick Key field.
I know the V1 works with the IPHONE and it also should work with the Palm Pre if it ever gets released. Nothing like announcing the worlds greatest phone while you have many thousands of old Treos still to be sold. Sprint must have had Osbourne Disease when they did this.
If anyone figures a way to get Speed Dial 2-9 working, please email me at marcftl@virzio.com
