for everyone

I want to get a couple of bluetooth headsets, one for me and one for Tracy. Ease of use and hands-free operation in the car will be most important for Tracy, and sound quality for me. Any advice? The BlueAnt Z9 seems to get good reviews.

Also, will I be able to use the headset with two different devices at once? At work I'd like to be able to take calls from both my iphone and my laptop (i.e. skype, etc.).

Thanks!

The X3 doesn't have a hands free speaker phone?

It does, although they seem to be having problems getting it working. More importantly I think it would be impractical with kids in the car. Might be hard to have a conversation with the kids screaming in the background.

I;m thinking about getting the Jawbone. Especially for the city, it supposedly isolates speech and blocks out background noise. I have the Plantronics Discovery, which I like, but there is a fair amount of background noise.

I've heard great things about the Jawbone (and the prices have dropped over the last year or so). Use the $100 credit from the iPhone purchase on one!

I have a Jawbone, and it is hands down the best Bluetooth headset I have owned.

I notice bluetooth headset devices drain my cell phone battery very fast, sometimes cutting in half the amount of time I go between charges when not using the bluetooth device. Does anyone else experience this?
