Conclusion

The Blue Butterfly II really is new and improved. Usability is better, and I�m now a fan of the simplified button situation. I like the fact that when I press the easy to find volume rocker, its first impulse is to raise the volume. Finding those little Braille-like raised plus and minus buttons on other headsets is out-and-out frustrating.

Although I couldn�t test battery life claims and Bluetooth 1.2 compatibility (I�m not a Consumer reports tester after all) I�m quite willing to accept these claims due to the professionalism of both the mfr. AND improvement to this product.

One last improvement I can verify is that the price has dropped twenty bucks in the Treo Central store, something I�m sure you�ll appreciate.

If you�re willing to sacrifice a bit of sound quality for style, then this earpiece is highly recommended. Thumbs up to mr HandsFree for making some needed changes.
