Bluetooth Headset

Can anyone tell me what's reckoned to be the best BT headset for use with a mobile?.
I'm on my 2nd Nokia HDW-3 which has just developed a distorted earpiece and I'm fed up with the earloops breaking.
Looking for a model with a nice loud output and good battery life.
Mobile is the O2 XDA Stellar (HTC TyTn II/Kaiser).

A note on an eBay model states "Uses Nokia smaller 2mm charging interface"...do you know if this is this the old long-time standard Nokia charger?...or a different charger?

Re: Bluetooth Headset

I have a Sony HBH ds970 which is very good. Long battery life and supports stereo bluetooth if your phone will transmit stereo mp3s. I got it half price for about £30 and am very pleased with it.

Re: Bluetooth Headset

After missing out on a couple of Nokia HDW-3 headsets, I spotted an O2 branded "blue" BT headset with no bids...I got it for £4.49 inc postage and will report back with my findings once I receive it.
