Just wanted to let people know that I am very happy (y) with both the performance and ergonomics of this Plantronics Discovery 975 bluetooth headset. I use it with my iPhone.

h2. What do I like?

* Great performance.
** *Sound* quality is *excellent* for me and the other party.
** *Long* enough talk and standby *charge*.
** *Great distance range*. It really liberated me from the tether, so to speak. No wires is a blessing once you experience it.
** *Audio feedback* \- on, off, beeps - all *help you* give you feedback without annoying you too much.
* Design and Engineering
** Controls are very intelligently designed. Minimalistic but very *{_}humanely{_}* *engineered*. Its a great exemplar for user-centric design.
** Very *light*. It is easy to forget you have it on.
** The *charger* box is functional and very endearing. I have fondled the box - and found joy.

h2. Cons

* The ear-gel piece can be a bit irritating. I cannot keep it on for more than couple hours at a time. Personal thing I guess.
* Putting on, takes some adjusting - but eventually I got used to it. It fits better on my right ear than left ear - so go figure :-) . Must be how my ear is shaped.
