LG VX-8100
Help me choose between these two headsets
After scouring these forums, I've narrowed down to what seem to be the two best choices for the 8100:
The Logitech Mobile Traveler
Jabra BT250V
I owned one headset in the past, the Jabra BT800, which worked for my previous phone, but not very well with the 8100. The BT250V gets high marks for being potentially... functional. But it's big and ugly compared to the Logitech.
Please tell me that one or both of these headsets allows the phone to still ring. It's incredibly dumb that manufacturers think that we keep these things in our ears 24/7. If I'm driving I need to hear my 8100 RING while paired and then I'll pop in the headset.
So which should I go with?

personally i like headsets that tuck behind the ear like the jabra. i dont like the kind that hang off the out side of your ear too floppy not seccure enough. the jabra fit is snug and seccure i will give it my vote! 😉

Thanks for your input. My Jabra bt800 was more like the Logitech one, it felt a little floppy at times but didn't bother me too much. I admit I'm leaning towards the Logitech for it's small size and lower dork factor. But I have heard more reliability reports on the 250V. Still waffling... Anyone else have opinions to offer (besides telling me to get a new phone 😉 )

In my experience, the Logitech works better with the 8100 than the Jabra did. To be fair, I had the Jabra before I got the v07 upgrade. After the upgrade, I played with a buddies Jabra for about 20 minutes, but could not tell any difference.
The Logitech has been by far the best of several BT headsets I have tried with the 8100.
