Customer Reviews

Better than expected4
I've only had this for a few days now, but I'm really pleased with it. I opted for the Bluetooth module for a few reasons:

- I upgrade my phone every year or so, and I wanted to avoid having to buy new cables each time.
- My wife also has a phone I wanted to use with the Dock N Talk, so again, I wanted to avoid needing a new cable.
- I don't have a phone jack next to where I wanted to place my phone when I get home at night.

This module fit the bill for all these points, and with little hassle. The bluetooth setup was a breeze, and I love that it connects with my phone automatically whenever I get in range. It really makes it brainless to connect to the Dock N Talk each day.

Another cool feature that I haven't even seen documented is that if you have two phones set up, and take the first out of range, it will automatically switch to the second phone. Very handy if I want to run an errand and need to call home -- my wife doesn't have to be near her phone.

One thing I wish they would have added would be the ability to set up a "priority" system fo multiple phone. Currently, it just connects to the phone of whoever arrives home first. Not a big deal, but you just have to pay a bit of attention to which phone its connected to.

BT Adaptor Still Required $25 Firmware Upgrade1
We bought this product to use with our Motorola Razr phone as they don't have a plug-in adaptor for the Dock-N-Talk. However, the bluetooth adaptor didn't work as our Dock-N-Talk is about a year or so old & we were told we had to get a $25 Firmware upgrade before we could use the BT. I feel the BT should have included the Firmware upgrade & not nick me for another $25. We are just using the plug-in adaptor for our old Motorola V260 phone my wife still uses. I'd hate to get the $25 firmware upgrade...they'd probably come out with another upgrade shortly after & want even more money.

Works well with an iPhone5
I'm well satisfied. Good audio quality. The minute I walk into the house it syncs to my iPhone. Then I am able to move about the house without worrying about missing a call.
