So, if you have two Bluetooth capable phones (like I do now, but not when I first wrote that &#8220;review&#8221;), only one phone can actually be paired to the headset at any given time. This is, rather inconvenient.<\/p>\n<p>A review of the <a href=\"http:\/\/laptopmag.com\/Review\/Jabra-BT8010-Bluetooth-Stereo-Headset.htm\">Jabra BT8010<\/a> basically states that it can pair with 2 devices, but was buggy (firmware fix helps). But it also costs USD$149! <\/p>\n<p>If anyone has any idea about Bluetooth headsets, please do assist in recommending one. I&#8217;m after largely one that will pair with <b>at least 2 devices<\/b>. If it does more, say 2 mobile phones and 2 computers (I&#8217;d ideally like to pair my headset with four devices eventually) and works seamlessly, i.e. it can answer calls from any device (I don&#8217;t expect it to make calls), I&#8217;m definitely in the market for such a device.<\/p>\n<p>(for reference: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dealtime.com\/xPR-Jabra-Jabra-Genuine-BT250v-Genuine-Car-Charger-Charger-Holder%7ERD-317512257156\">bt250v review at dealtime<\/a>, google says that older headsets had this feature and newer ones don&#8217;t &#8211; why&#8217;d anyone remove such a useful feature? <a href=\"http:\/\/groups.google.com\/group\/alt.cellular.bluetooth\/browse_thread\/thread\/bb6dc8b869e19718\/f677ac7d226d35fa%23f677ac7d226d35fa\">hbh-30 works, but newer headsets suck<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p>Technorati Tags: <a class=\"performancingtags\" href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/bluetooth\" rel=\"tag\">bluetooth<\/a>, <a class=\"performancingtags\" href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/jabra\" rel=\"tag\">jabra<\/a>, <a class=\"performancingtags\" href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/jabra%20bt250v\" rel=\"tag\">jabra bt250v<\/a>, <a class=\"performancingtags\" href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/nokia\" rel=\"tag\">nokia<\/a>, <a class=\"performancingtags\" href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/multiple%20devices\" rel=\"tag\">multiple devices<\/a>, <a class=\"performancingtags\" href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/pairing\" rel=\"tag\">pairing<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"sharedaddy sd-sharing-enabled\"><div class=\"robots-nocontent sd-block sd-social sd-social-icon-text sd-sharing\"><h3 class=\"sd-title\">Share this:<\/h3><div class=\"sd-content\"><ul><li class=\"share-email\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"\" class=\"share-email sd-button share-icon\" href=\"mailto:?subject=%5BShared%20Post%5D%20Bluetooth%20headset%20that%20pairs%20to%20multiple%20devices&body=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.bytebot.net%2Fblog%2Farchives%2F2007%2F05%2F26%2Fbluetooth-headset-that-pairs-to-multiple-devices&share=email\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to email a link to a friend\" data-email-share-error-title=\"Do you have email set up?\" data-email-share-error-text=\"If you&#039;re having problems sharing via email, you might not have email set up for your browser.
