Quote from SerafinM : code doesn't work

Code is EMCJHNF48

Bought 3. My SP700 is awesome and loud but I want Caller ID with Name.

Quote from omz : i just got the updated version of this at costco for $50 (on sale till 12/16). so far its great. really loud and clear, much louder than my phone's speaker. not to mention costco return policy if it fails.

What is the updated version of this?

should I buy it or not?no one telling here to buy it but everyone is just talking back to back.

Quote from Frontierboy : I've had this for 6 months now.... it is sweet... automatically connects when you enter the car..... the sound is clear on both ends and can't even tell your in a car..... and the standby time last 2 months. Highly recoommended

So you don't need to manually turn it on or off? Not bad.

I have another version of the Jabra bt system, and was so impressed by it's quality I bought additional units for my parents and sister. Problem is while I have a habit of turning it on/off, they don't and hence rarely use it.

Quote from Sendero : Receiver, though crap, is only $55 but then you have to install it. What about those with non-standard dash openings or double-DIN openings? Easy to screw up factory appearances and have a hack with that only $55 receiver. Not really a good option for everyone. Sure, you may have to mute stereo yourself, but that's really not all that bad when compared to hacking your dash and ending up with a crappy looking dash. May work for you, but not for many others. No reason to crap on this deal/item just because you don't like it. just go elsewhere.

I know some people have specific openings. Crutchfield gives you step by step instructions. And "hacking" your dash is really an overstatement and makes people think they have to start cutting.

I've only installed about 6 car stereos but not once did I have to "hack" or cut anything. Most of the time it's just a plastic cover that clips into place and gives you an extra storage slot.

I stated this items benefits in my post. I don't feel like this is a "car speakerphone system". It has nothing to do with the car other than it has a clip on the back. You can clip it to your shirt, to a visor etc. It has a nice standby time (2-3 months).

There are regular bluetooth speakers that do the same thing with better sound.

There are also dozens of others that do the same thing for half the price:

Even best buy has the same price for similar things:

Ebay BRAND new Motorola is standard price:

I'm really not threadcrapping - or at least I don't mean to. I don't want someone else reading it like I did and order it thinking it will mute their car radio or anything.

Here is a much better solution in my opinion:
http://www.amazon.com/BlackBerry-...rds=vm-605

The blackberry uses FM to run the sound through your car.

So if you want to play pandora, MP3, iheartradio whatever on your phone and run google navigation at the same time it will all work.

You can play music, run the nav and it will mute the music while the nav tells you where to go , then go back to the music automatically. If a call comes in, it will mute both of them and go to the phone call.

That is more along the lines of what I was expecting when I saw "car system".

If the Jabra included (or includes) these features then I'm sorry for not reading it better.

Nope, dont have to turn it on or off..... when i enter the car, it automatically connects, when i leave the car it automatically disconnects.... and the battery last ~ 2 months before i have to recharge it.

I went ahead and bought two of the jabra. I like the idea of having self contained speaker right on the visor. I'm wondering how well the mic would pickup with the gogroove. I don't stream music but want this more for speaker phone in the card hands free. My wife needs one in her car as well. Hopefully I'm not disappointed.

I don't like the fm modualtor stuff because on trips between the major cities the stations change so much its a pain to find good ones to stream on. That last mentioned blackberry option seemed pretty much but wondering if it would work with my android S3 .

I'm having a hard time choosing between this and the Gogroove. The Gogroove seems to have better reviews, but it would seem like the self contained speaker of the Jabra would better than the fm modulator of the groove. Jabra has voice commands to receive and end calls, but can't tell if the Gogroove is truly hands free.

Quote from slickdicker : What is the updated version of this?

I think he's referring to the Jabra Tour. I checked the Costco website because that would be easier to get for me and faster since who knows how long shipping would take.

Seems to have just as good of reviews on amazon and is smaller. I don't know if it's an "updated" version though or which one would be better between the two.

Thanks OP! In 4 1. My wife was asking for one these for Christmas (to replace a crappy Motorola one I got her last Christmas!) -- sounds like this one is a step up.

After comparing all the models on Jabra's site... In for one.
