Thanks for telling me that. Especially when I have just purchased one for £50 quid from carphone warehouse a few days ok.

Ah well.... it's a really good headset, works really well.

Bought a Plantronics M3000 from Dabs three days ago for £49.99 inc vat.

8 hours talk time instead of 3 from the Jabra, and supports voice dialling, which you need to avoid being arrested.

It seems to have gone up since then to £54.99, but thats still £25 cheaper than anyone else.

Jimbo,

Pressing buttons (for dialling and answering) is allowed as long as the phone is fixed to the vehicle, so if it's in a mount you're ok, you just cannot use a "hand held" phone, either for speaking or dialling.

It's all in the wording of the law.

MSN have a neat piece on it, at

True but how long do you intend to be on the phone while driving? I only use mine for long trips or where i might get lost so not a huge issue for me. If i neede one for work daily commute i would get a full car kit much better but specific and £200+
