What Mobile-hands Free Kits Are You Using?

[Birnie]

Hey peeps,

Just after peoples opinions on mobile phone kits, what your are using or seen and prefer.

I'm currently using a Nokia CK-7W and think it's great.

Cost about $115 delivered.

Has Bluetooth connectivity and you can press a button to answer, or press and hold and say the name to call (if it can recognise what you say)

I was thinking of getting another one of those for our recent new car (non Skyline...and 2nd hand)

But, I've also stumbled on the CK-15W which looks similar but has a fancy display.

The best i can find is $229 delivered for that one.

Anyone using other kits (preffereably Bluetooth) that you could suggest?

Cheers..Birnie

nokia 616 is what I use. parrot 3200 & 3400 is what I sell mostly though.

Wow the 616 is a pricey kit. Must do a good job though

I've bought a non-nokia kit once before and it sounded so bad, i took it back and bought another cheaper Nokia that sounded better.

What sort of feedback on the Parrots?

[Chris Rogers]

its a 8w car phone thats why the hefty pricetag. I get into some wierd spots and the phone needs to work.

feedback on the parrot items is almost nonexistant.

Have had dramas of people's 6110 Nav's not running with a CK-7W.

Is there a Nokia CK-20W...? Apparently it is meant to work. Chris...?

I ordered the 15W yesterday...waiting for delivery

6110's not working with the CK-7W's?

That's odd.

It's actually a pretty simple device only looking for Bluetooth devices so i can't see why it wouldn't if it has Bluetooth?

CK-7W is a great/simple/cheap unit by the way.

Have one in the Skyline now.

There is a 20W but i can't find much info on it.

Only has pics of the little swivel unit ??

dunno, never used it. 7w & 15w are my usual ones. I will say that the 616 does fight with the 6120 I have occasionally. one of them drops the BT link and I have to manually reset it. oddly enough it works fine with my old 6230.. go figure.

[Lil_Bobby_260]

6230's and 6230i's are gun phones - had one for three years no need to upgrade yet.

But yes CK-7W and 6110 navs - keeps dropping out of bluetooth. CK-20W apparently works.

I got the pioneer 9850 head unit has built in bluetooth works really well, auto connects when i turn the car on, cuts the music out does all the right stuff, and i got one of those little portable speaker type ones in my ute a sudio its called works ok but u find yourself leaning towards it so the person you are talking to can hear u better, i put in on my sun visor and its a pain in the ass cause u have to charge it.
