Sitting down, facing forward.
I have a non ecig question and need advice from all "YOU" Computer/Tech nerds (includes you "Konstantine") that concerns both the Samsung Galaxy III AND - the Motorola Xoom . . .

OKAY NOW - I was lucky enough to be able to get a totally free upgrade to this phone and need to get a new blue-tooth headset to go along with it . . . Right now, I have the original Jawbone (six years old now) which still works - not great and the ear piece keeps falling off (BTW: I can't use ear-buds). . . I was thinking another Jawbone, however there are now 3 different ones and I don't think I can afford either of them right now given their prices . . . I also did a search for suggestions and of course that got confusing, but one stood out that was the - Plantronics Voyager PRO HD Bluetooth Headset which of course is pricey . . . Hey - if I have too, I'll save up to get one, until then . . .

SO - What do other's think would be the most affordable and best Blue-tooth head set I can/should get to use both with the Samsung Galaxy III phone and to connect to a Motorola Xoom to use with the talk program too

I look forward to your responses . . . THANKS

I know you said you can't afford the Jawbone right now......but it is the best, at least in my opinion. Their noise canceling is second to none and that's the big problem with earpiece devices. I tried a bunch, a while back admitedly, and the Jawbone beat them all. Maybe hold off until you can would be an alternative, although not a convenient one. I still use my original one and I bought my wife a new one a year ago to replace her original. They seem to go forever and if hers hadn't been dropped one to many times, she'd still be using it as well.

Just my opinion, worth what you're paying for it, your results and mileage may vary, no warrantee or guarantee is expressed or implied.

Okay - THANKS :thumbs: I've always like the Jawbone too and hear YOU . . . :)

Now - which Jawbone would you suggest ? ? ? ;)

Look for another Original, The Era, the Icon HD . . .

Anyone else want to make a suggestion/s :confused:

Coffee is up group! Am I the only Voltatic up this early today, and I slept a little late?

I got my wife the Icon. She uses it with the ear loop wire, but I think it can be used with the ear plug alone. Like you, I hate ear buds so I'd use the wire too.

Sheesh - I was wondering when some-one would make coffee (wha??? me make it???)
Decided to vape a 78mm volt - with carto and the tip from an old CE3. Those tips are the bomb on a Volt carto.

Morning to everyone.
Speaking of coffee.....I love coffee. I like my coffee with Stevia and the fancy liquid creamers (yeah, I guess the sugar in the fancy creamers kind of cancels out the Stevia...:laugh: I drink diet coke with my big mac's too!! LOL) I just made my first somewhere else e-juice purchase because I wanted to try some other flavors while I'm waiting for SI to get their new juice line in....can't wait anymore. I ordered this Sweet Jo from Mom & Pop's and it came a couple days ago. All I can say is OMG!! It is the most heavenly experience I have had since I've been vaping. I like all the other flavors, but I have never had anything like this yet. I am truly having an experience here. (I'm laughing at myself and you all probably know what I'm talking about but I'm still new at this - 2 months in.) I didn't know you could truly "smoke" your coffee!
Just had to share with someone. (I don't know any other vapers but you guys here in the forum) :)

Good Morning Volties!

I'm up a bit late this morning. Decided to sleep in. My excuse is that it's Saturday, but days of the week don't really matter much to me anymore as long as I remember trash night.

Thanks for the coffee Awsum!

It's definitely beginning to look like autumn here in paradise as well as feeling more like it. There are more golds and oranges and reds in the woods now. There is a red-tailed hawk sitting in a tree just outside the window above my desk. The morning sun is making his tail glow russet. I'd give just about anything to be able to paint that scene just as I'm seeing it now - to preserve the sight for always. And now ...... he's gone. Take great pleasure in the little things in life, folks. The little things add up, and can make the difference between a miserable life and one filled with beauty. Well, I'm done pontificating now. Here's hoping that y'all have a wonderful Saturday!

I agree.....the little things.....we get so busy and forget to smell the roses along the way. :laugh:
Thanks for the good thought and reminder!

By the way, Uncle, all kidding aside, I wish you the best luck with vaping this time. I remember reading your posts a while ago when you talked about your disappointments and difficulties. I think a lot of people go back to smoking for the same reasons. It's unfortunate but that's what happens.

If there's anything I can do to help, don't hesitate to ask.

View attachment 140473 Oh Now - You're tryin to get on my good-side (if I had one) - HEY . . .;)


Seriously, all joking aside - Thank You - I do appreciate you offering to help . . . :D

Honestly, while I have no great expectations, I hopefully will be able to get the hang of all this . . . Hey, I've been at this for over a year now and I am still here nor given up - So I know that at least counts for something, even if it is to show how crazy I am . . . :) (Or it could just be the OCD kicking in :lol:) AND - As most people already know, I didn't really start this to give up smoking, but to cut back on how much I smoked . . . However after reading everyone's stories and seeing how they accomplished "quiting" totally by "Vaping", I know I will eventually . . . :D Just need to find that one "Nicquid" to help me cut back again and possibly get me off the "analogs" (and that is what a very good friend who DIY's is working on for "Me" :D) . . . Besides making sure I am using equipment that doesn't "crack" or "leak" because of the "Nicquid" I am and will be using . . . Hopefully, All Will Be GOOD ! ! !

Again - THANKS :D

You're so silly!

WHO - "ME" . . . :confused:

I don't know what "You" are talking about . . . ;)


It's been working out pretty darned well so far. He puts up with a lot of silliness and teasing. That's a basic requirement. :)

YEA - I know . . . Glad to "read" that - I'm sure he will fit in then . . . :D

Looks like fall is arriving here as well. Supposed to drop into the 40's tonight and not get out of the 60's tomorrow, with rain. The leaves are turning all those nice colors. Sure wish they'de stay there and turn green again in the spring, walking away in crunching leaves, dragging a leaf rake, mumbling.........

A curmudgeon is a curmudgeon,

Well, Uncle, Raven and I are not really something new. It's been quite a while. Raven just thought it was time to introduce me to her family. She warned me that her family is a little "different." In that case, I should fit in just fine. :2cool:

No, not new at all. I've had enough time to steal at least one of your shirts. Odd as it may seem, I really do feel that Voltville is home and many of the residents are family. They've accepted me with my eccentricities and flaws. You, having far fewer flaws than I, but just as many eccentricities should fit in beautifully. ;)
