General BlackBerry® Functions and Features

Hi I have an 8310 of which Vodafone have supplied me with two replacements in 8 months because the connection to the bluetooth 6xx Plantronics fails after a couple of months. You can pair the device ok but when it trys to connect it fails. I am really getting fedup as I am always on the road. Help

Plantronics devices are terrible.  I bought one and I will NEVER buy one again. I would recommend Motorola or Nokia. 

I would suggest this is your headset and not the Blackberry.   I would say your plantronics headset is faulty.  Try the headset with other NON-blackberry cell phones / PDA devices, if you get the same problem I can assure you it is the headset.   Just borrow a cell phone from your friend that has bluetooth capablities.

Hi thanks for that info, but this is the third bb and it is always the device. I have just this minute paired with my wifes phone no problem at all, went straght back and followed the exact same procedure and it pairs but then will not connect so once again has to be the device, I have tried to contact BB direct but cannot find a link to them. Looks like another lengthy call to Vodafone BlackBerry Tech support and all they will do is send me another divice, surley someone will want to know that it is a problem or is it the power of my mind causes this  problem?
