Strengths: This bluetooth adaptor (for your non-bluetooth cellular-phone) is great. You can easily connect it to your phone and you can make wireless calls without useing your cell phone.
Weaknesses: the only weaknesses on this product is that if you are a constant cell phone user the battery life might not be the best that you could get.
Summary: Overall, this adaptor is great for the normal users. I have had great results with this product. I would suggest this to anyone and everyone I know. Have fun with it!

Strengths: Small, light, charges fast, cheap, works with other brand headsets.
Weaknesses: Range limited (with MY headsets anyway).
Summary: Works very well between my Panasonic home phone and my Plantronics 510 headset. Also works with my new Motorola stereo headset (but has slight echo). Can't go very far from the unit, so I clip the phone and adapter to my waist. Still way better than a corded headset, as I was always catching cord on things in the house. Don't listen to their hype that it only works with Jabra headsets. I love Bluetooth technology almost as much as Pricegrabber prices.

Bad product, Stop working after 5 days
Strengths: When it worked:
Good reception, easy to use, easy to install.
Weaknesses: It was very hard to tell if the device is on or off, the leds sometimes doesn't flash although it is on.
The on/off button just fell after 5 days of use(just before I wanted to ship it back)
Summary: 2007-01-04 19:25:17 When it worked for 4-5 days: Very good reception, very clear, no static. Easy to install, easy to use. Light weight. The leds are not flashing although it is on... The on/off button just fell after 5 days of use(just before I wanted to ship it back and have a full refund).
Will update that review when CellGuys will receive that product.

Strengths: Powerful
Weaknesses: Noticeable
Summary: Very pleased with the A210 Wireless Bluetooth Adapter. Purchased four of these units and handed them out as gifts. Had no trouble pairing it with my non-Bluetooth phone. First call was out of the state. Could be heard clearly.

Strengths: Works with Xbox 360 and cordless phones
Weaknesses: Low microphone volume
Summary: I bought the Jabra A210 for my Xbox 360 and cordless phones, not for cell phone. All cell phones today have Bluetooth, so nobody needs this for that purpose.
I leverage this adapter to enable wireless headset use with my Xbox 360. I like my bluetooth headset, so wouldn't it be nice to use it as an Xbox 360 wireless headset? This adapter is the answer. I connect the adapter the Xbox 360 wireless controller, and pair the adapter with my bluetooth headset. Now I can chat on xbox live!
The caveats: the adapter has three settings. Position 1 is for Motorola, so mic volume is way too low. Position 3 is ok, and produces echos (I don't hear it, but other parties hear it). Position 2 is lower than 3, and has less echos. The other thing is the adapter becomes active only when there is signal from the wired connection to the controller (meaning when other parties are talking). So if nobody talks and I want to say something, it wouldn't work. I can't just talk into the headset and wake it up. The work around is to push a button on the headset, which will try to initiate a connection to the adapter.
It works with cordless phone too, but again the mic volume is a bit low.
I also tried Cardo's BTA II, but it doesn't work for Xbox 360. I cannot hear anyone and no one can hear me.

Strengths: Works easily and without any hassle.
Weaknesses: None really
Summary: I wish I didn't have to have this BT adapter, but since my phone doesn't have built in BT, I have no other option. The adapter works great and is easy to configure. Very hassle free.

Bad product, didn't work right out the box.
Strengths: Fairly small, easy to configure, user friendly operational instructions.
Weaknesses: Didn't work, clumsy, does not fit or attach to your phone easily, but it has it's own belt clip. You have to charge it seperately from your phone.
Summary: I purchased the Jabra A210 Bluetooth Adapter (lowest pricegrabber price); suppose to work with any cellular phone fitted with an industry standard 2.5mm headset jack. Quick and easy on line purchase. They shipped within 5 to 7 days UPS ground. A shame the device didn't work...defective right out of the box. I wouldn't recommend buying this device due to the amount of Bluetooth capable phones on the market now. I have a non- Bluetooth phone and my spouse purchased a Jabra Bluetooth earpiece/phone for my B-day, hence I thought it would be more economical to get an adapter vs. a Bluetooth phone. Since the one I purchased didn't work, I think I'll upgrade my phone instead.

Deffective
Strengths: None
Weaknesses: The product did not work.
Summary: The concept of the product is good. A friend has one and uses it to connect her bluetooth to the cordless phone. The two units I recevied were deffective and did not work. The seller requires a RMA for returns and has failed to respond to the request for a RMA to return the defective products.

wireless adapter
Strengths: wireless
Weaknesses: range, noise
Summary: pretty much junk. noisy unless you hold it right by the phone. a few feet away it fades, is noisy and cuts out...
wouldn't buy again, probably will end up in the draw with all of the other "sounds good but doesn't work worth a darn" items...

Jabra Bluetooth Adapter
Strengths: Small, works with most headsets
Weaknesses: mono audio
Summary: This is a bluetooth adapter for non-bluetooth cellphones so you can use your favorite bt headset with them. it works as advertised and even works with headsets of other make (like Motorola). It needs to be recharged separately and battery life is not bad (4+ hrs). It even works with stereo headsets from Motorola but only provides mono audio.

does what it says
Strengths: turns old phones to BT capable. ease of use.
Weaknesses: sometimes hard to recognize. not compact
Summary: works well with my nokia 6010 which is not bluetooth capable. easy to hook it up with my logitech and jabra BT devices. Cheaper to enable your non-BT phone to BT capable instead of buying expensive phones.

Strengths: Small and easy to set up. Works great with Blackberry that is not Bluetooth. Brought this one to use with hands free speaker phone.
Weaknesses: Hard to tell when it's on. Light does not flash as clearly as the ear phone.
Summary: No complaints. Have complete set of Jabber products to use with Blackberry that is not Bluetooth capable. Has long battery life. Short of not having to use an adapter, this is the next best thing.

A210 Wireless Bluetooth Adapter for Non-Bluetooth Phones
Strengths: ease of use
Weaknesses: pricey, too large, poor attachment mechanism, sketchy sound quality
Summary: Simply plugged it into the phone (LG vx6000) and it worked. Have a Jabra BT250 bluetooth earpiece that will not vibrate when a call is coming in and sound quality was quite questionable so switched to a Motorola H3 and it has better sound but cannot answer a call by pressing the answer-call button the the earpiece. The velcro attachment pads are a lost cause - wouldn't stick to the phone or the unit and make it even bulkier than it already is. I just leave the unit hanging by the cord and put up with it.
Previously used a "HEAD-ON" non-bluetooth wireless phone-to-ear unit but it chewed through very hard to find batteries. Jabra could, maybe, have made this unit just a bit smaller so I could attach it to the phone (take a look at the HEAD-ON attachment design - brilliant). This unit works for what I need it for (definitely better that using a wire from phone to ear) but Jabra could re-think a few things and have an improved product.
