I am looking for a good rugged bluetooth headset for my cell phone. I had a Cardo for several years and it worked ok and took alot of abuse. It was also red and kinda fat which made it easy find. I don't mind bulky I just want it to work,looks don't matter as much as function. The Cardo finally died.
I bought a Nokia to replace the Cardo and it was a POS. Sound quality was ok but the thing was too flimsy. I also hate the firware that comes with it. It has problems hanging up and part of that is that you have to hold it down for two seconds to dial and then to hang up you have to touch it and let go fast. If you hold it down too long it does all kinds of crazy crap. I want one button press to dial and hang up. I don't want last number redial or switch lines or any of that crap that tends to not work when you are distracted and don't have time to remember was that a long press or short press or a long and a short followed by standing on your head. I lost the ear hook thing about a month ago because it was flimsy and came out of the mount. It also had a swivel to it that made it not stay in place while on your ear. I just came back from a trip out of town and I seem to have lost the whole thing (not that upset).
So I want something FAT, Functional, and Foolproof not some useless metrosexual fashion accesory. Does anyone have any ideas?
Newegg does not seem to carry Cardo anymore.
