Motorola HT820 Stereo Bluetooth Headset - Features
(Page 3 of 4 )
The Motorola HT820 will stream music wirelessly from your Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP) cell phone, and will allow you make and receive phone calls as well. If you 're listening to music when a call comes in, the headset will emit a beep that lets you know there is a call coming in. You simply press the "M" on the left ear cup to answer the phone call. The music will pause while you take the call, and will resume play when you're done with the call. I find this feature to be exceptionally convenient and useful.
The "M" on the right ear cup controls the music from your PC or cell phone. The two rectangular buttons on top of the ear cup fast forward or rewind the track, while the two rectangular buttons above the left ear cup control the volume of the music as well as the call volume. These controls are conveniently located and give you full control over your music and cell phone calls, even if your cell phone is in your pocket or briefcase. When paired with a Bluetooth-enabled cell phone, the HT820 allows you to stray up to about 33 feet from you phone and still listen to your music or take phone calls.
The HT820 is compatible with most PCs, but you'll need to purchase the PC850 stereo PC adapterin order to listen to music from your PC in your headphones. You can get this accessory for less than $10, so it's not a bad upgrade by any means. The HT820 will also work in conjunction with the DC800 Stereo Adapter($40) which allows you to stream music from your home stereo, and will also allow you to play your iPod tunes through your home stereo speakers, while controlling volume and track with the HT820, with the optional Bluetooth Stereo Adapter for iPod($30).
