mrn8 Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 Might not be a bad headset to use w/Skype, if you are using a PPC w/bluetooth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RossMAN Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 What's class 1, what distance/range? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 Actually Class 1 has a range of around 100m (300 feet) and Class 2 is around 10m (30 feet). Obviously for something like this there is no need for the increased range of a Class 1 device as you will not typically be over 30 feet from your phone when using this headset.

Brad Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 lol. well either way, the range doesn't really matter for this item, since you will most likely using it a few feet from your phone at the max, and your phone probably has a small range itself.
