Want to win a Jabra Cruiser 2 Car Kit Speakerphone from CrackBerry.com? Keep reading for contest details.
I have been using a Jabra SP700 for a few years now, and figured it was time to pick up a new one. When it comes to bluetooth I have always been a big fan of Jabra. Their products are always high quality, long lasting, and have never let me down. So while browsing ShopCrackBerry.com I came across the Jabra Cruiser 2, and immediately loved the look. Upon receiving the device, I was immediately impressed with the hardware. Very solid build quality, and dedicated buttons for send/end, mute, volume up/down, and the ever important (to me anyways) on/off switch.
The Cruiser 2's initial setup is very simple. Upon first turning on the device, a voice instructs you to turn on your device, search for bluetooth, and gives you the code to enter to complete pairing (funny how it's always 0000). The device itself has some of the best sound quality that I have ever experienced in a bluetooth device. It also sports a ton of features such as multiple device pairing, address book integration, voice guidance, and great battery life (14 hours talk time, 13 days of standby). The address book integration is the best feature I came across. After you first pair your BlackBerry device to it, the Cruiser 2 tells you that it is downloading your address book, and then alerts you when the process has finished. I was surprised to find out just how good this feature is. I have a lot of uncommon names in my address book, but the Cruiser 2 spoke them all (so far) correctly. Even my girlfriend's name (Emilee), which is in my address book as "Emileeeeeee". It was a pleasant surprise, and my 1st experience with a bluetooth device speaking the name of the incoming caller, and not just the phone number.
In the Box
In the box, you would find just what you would expect in a purchase like this, and a few extras. As always, you get the standard manuals, device, and charger. I did find it nice that Jabra included a car adapter to charge your Cruiser 2 while on the go. The previous model speakerphone I had from them did not include this, and i was forced to purchase it separately. As I stated before, I have found that Jabra products to always be high in quality, and the Cruiser 2 and its accessories are no exception. I expect to be using them for years to come.
Other Accessories to Compliment the iGrip
As with all in car accessories I review, I want to point out all the accessories that will go well with the Cruiser 2. Most areas have laws for using your device while operating a vehicle, and can land you with a hefty ticket and/or points on your license. So be safe and save yourself from a ticket and check out the other car accessories that would go hand-in-hand with the Jabra Cruiser 2 via the links below.
Bluetooth Headsets
BlackBerry Car Kits & Mounts
Wrap-up
Awesome
- Battery life
- Sound quality
- Ease of initial setup
- Ability to pair multiple simultaneous bluetooth devices
- Address book integration
- Button configuration
- Car stereo integration
- Dedicated on/off switch
Not So Awesome
- Robot voice that talks to you
- Overall size is a little big
All in all, the Jabra Cruiser 2 Bluetooth Car Kit Speakerphone is the best device of its kind that I have ever used. It is packed full of features that you would hope to find in any bluetooth/speakerhone device. In fact, I don't know if there are even any features that are "missing" or that I could think of wanting added to the device. You can pick it up at ShopCrackBerry.com, available for your bluetooth enabled BlackBerry.

paramedic233 Apr 2, 2011 at 3:10 pm
It would make talking to medical control much easier when dealing with a patient in the back of the ambulance!
ChattieCat11 Apr 2, 2011 at 3:12 pm
My headset just died!I could really use this!
tsells Apr 2, 2011 at 3:12 pm
Never won a thing from CB so here's another losing post!!!!
trinishan Apr 2, 2011 at 3:13 pm
love to get one of these to be safe on the road. I have to travel a lot for work, so it'll come in handy!
dgross07 Apr 2, 2011 at 3:14 pm
Would be great to have as an Emergency Support Service volunteer in our local city. Thanks.
Powdah Apr 2, 2011 at 3:16 pm
My BB one died so I could use a new one,
jfs101 Apr 2, 2011 at 3:16 pm
I like the idea of hearing names instead of numbers for incoming calls. Some of my old phones, as far back as 2005, had this function but my VM-605 shouts numbers...
RichTex Apr 2, 2011 at 3:17 pm
Driving through residential neighborhoods with a myriad of school zones. This would truly let me be hands free. Save the kids, give it to me!!!!
Rob FDIinc Apr 2, 2011 at 3:24 pm
Would be a nice addition.
one4gipperj Apr 2, 2011 at 3:24 pm
MUSIC MUSIC MUSIC!!! I don't even get phone calls!!
DJBS4LIFE Apr 2, 2011 at 3:25 pm
This would be awesome to have when driving. PP!!!
pyceasyas123 Apr 2, 2011 at 3:25 pm
most of my time is spent on the road. this would be an excellent addition to my car.
thetruman Apr 2, 2011 at 3:25 pm
I've never had a bluetooth, but always knew I needed to get one. I live in a state where it's illegal to talk on the phone while driving, so I could definitely take advantage of it.
andino Apr 2, 2011 at 3:26 pm
Driving stick and trying to talk on the fun is always a fun experience. My Prius has handsfree but my e30 BMW doesn't haha. Would be nice to be able to have this in my BMW when I'm driving on weekends or to events hehe
soaman Apr 2, 2011 at 3:28 pm
I would use it in my wife's car so we could talk at safe distance ;-)
K3it4r0 Apr 2, 2011 at 3:34 pm
For work I'm driving a lot, so I can guide safely when a make some calls
Aomar7 Apr 2, 2011 at 3:39 pm
I work at a catering business and I'm the delivery boy,so I would use this as a tool to pick up and deliver orders.
mkona1 Apr 2, 2011 at 3:40 pm
To be able to safely take business calls on the road...
bgriff25 Apr 2, 2011 at 3:41 pm
Looks nice and address book integration sounds awesome. I'm due for an upgrade, my Jabra SP200 works good, but I'd love to have all the bells and whistles this thing has
Mormegil007 Apr 2, 2011 at 3:44 pm
It would help me keep my eyes on the road!!
miloszz Apr 2, 2011 at 3:47 pm
Wow, great, just in time that I was wondering about speakerphone system for my car - I don't have any right now :) It would suit me really good!
red72 Apr 2, 2011 at 3:50 pm
Are you kidding? how would it not make anyones drive better and safer. Dialing while driving is just as bad as texting, especialy with my two year old in the back (love him/drives me crazy somtimes).how many things we do when we should be driving. This would certainly help with at least one. Thanks for the oporotunity CB/Obi.
JREwing Apr 2, 2011 at 3:56 pm
I'm a total loser. Never won a thing. Could this be the first?
Appz- Apr 2, 2011 at 3:56 pm
I would want this, because it would be good if I could drive safely and still listen to my phone calls =D
sedalia066 Apr 2, 2011 at 3:56 pm
A car coNnection is necessary these days.
gregerator Apr 2, 2011 at 3:58 pm
Considering I'm still using speakerphone for car conversations and doing a bit of TWD.... This might someday save a life. Another great contest from CB and ShopCrackBerry.com!!!
PiotrJot Apr 2, 2011 at 4:01 pm
I drive many kilometers every week, so it would help me while taking on the phone on the move.
danp2000 Apr 2, 2011 at 4:04 pm
I spend all day for work driving so this car kit would help to keep me safe with my hands on the wheel when working.
Plus, based on the review, this is a great product.
jmitchell88 Apr 2, 2011 at 4:06 pm
I would put it to good use when traveling from school, work and home. A lot of drvivng and not having a car with bluetooth built in is a pain.
marecki12 Apr 2, 2011 at 4:07 pm
Every day commuting, endles time in the car....
With device like this, well road legal again =)
excessfat Apr 2, 2011 at 4:08 pm
I would use this in the car to make safe calls.
sdreelin Apr 2, 2011 at 4:09 pm
I use my BB to play music....this would be sweet in the car!!!
mgillis59 Apr 2, 2011 at 4:10 pm
need a new one.
eliasso Apr 2, 2011 at 4:11 pm
perfect to taking calls when driving and not getting those tickets! headsets make my ear itchy so i cannot use them
ChillFactorz Apr 2, 2011 at 4:13 pm
The Jabra Cruiser 2, sounds like just what I wanted. I don't mind it's a little bit bigger, I am always forgetting to put my BT headset device in my ear before driving away. I would much rather have a device that is "ready-to-go" when I need it, and not in my arm rest storage compartment, and out of batteries. definitely a useful device for me.
mikeplus1 Apr 2, 2011 at 4:14 pm
I would use this all day driving in my car and yes avoid those darn tickets, lol. ;)
danbar Apr 2, 2011 at 4:15 pm
Safer than using my phone while driving and looks like a real quality piece
chunkyjams Apr 2, 2011 at 4:15 pm
It would definitely make the 20 minute drive to and from work awesome :D
dlovell3 Apr 2, 2011 at 4:16 pm
I do a lot of talking on my cell phone while in the car and the ear peice is just not doing it for me I would love this product.
aloofkid Apr 2, 2011 at 4:19 pm
I work as a graphic designer and get a lot of email from my client, it would be nice to use it with a voice dictation application and let it reads my email, sms, rss feed while I'm driving.
gyubok Apr 2, 2011 at 4:20 pm
This would definitely help!
kidkamel Apr 2, 2011 at 4:21 pm
I could use a better BT speaker, my moto BT speaker is not holding a long enough charge.
stevendsnyder Apr 2, 2011 at 4:22 pm
I would love to win this for my wife. She has the Mytouch 4G, but does not have a way to use it other than the speakerphone function of the phone. I think it would be much safer if she had the Jabra Cruiser 2 to let her use her phone safely in the car.
Skezza Apr 2, 2011 at 4:23 pm
Legal driving at last!!
enots27 Apr 2, 2011 at 4:25 pm
Please Crackberry let me win this one.
khecht Apr 2, 2011 at 4:26 pm
How well does this filter out road noise? While I have a relatively quiet car when the the windows are up, when using the wired hand-free set included with the 9650 Bold I often get complaints from the other end about noise from some of the rental cars I wind up driving for work. Some of the BT wireless sets have noise cancellation features, but I prefer the dual-ear earbuds to maximize call volume in these loud environments. If this were good at not generating too much noise for the other end, I'd go for this in a second.
berrydeck Apr 2, 2011 at 4:31 pm
don't have a blue tooth option for the car and using speaker phone just doesn't cut it. it would be a great addition and also portable for traveling with rental cars.
ArgoFX Apr 2, 2011 at 4:34 pm
Cool. Would be a nice addition to my car :)
dpolletta Apr 2, 2011 at 4:38 pm
This would be great for my commute and would replace an aging Jabra Headset.
laollis Apr 2, 2011 at 4:40 pm
Oh My! I need this!!! PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE pick me. My Torch would be happy. I'd be happy. :-)
bielefeld Apr 2, 2011 at 4:42 pm
I would love one of these. I hate headsets they annoy the crap out of me. However I have always wanted a bluetooth speakerphone in my car. It would mean one less distraction on the road thats for sure!
jymbrittain Apr 2, 2011 at 4:45 pm
I'd bypass the lousy built in bluetooth in my kia soul and use this to stream music via A2DP from phone to stereo
stevetaz Apr 2, 2011 at 4:53 pm
This would be a major improvement over having a BT stuck in my ear while driving for hours in traffic....
Earth#CB Apr 2, 2011 at 4:54 pm
Since i have to travel about 70km p/ day and do a lot of talking and stuff and since it's forbidden to handle a phone, but allowed to handle other stuff "mounted" to your car, in germany, this one would be just right for me. I could save a lot of time, while driving around, actually doing nothing productive, but driving, if i'd use this awesome piece of technic.
So please help me out here. ;)
squintyboy Apr 2, 2011 at 4:55 pm
perfect for on the road
lanching123 Apr 2, 2011 at 4:59 pm
this would be great for diving to and from campus. especially since i dont have any bluetooth device. pick me please!
obaquerizo Apr 2, 2011 at 5:02 pm
On the part between my radio and drive wheel, with some velcro on the back, it will get confy, and more esay to take it off went you leave your car
blutricky Apr 2, 2011 at 5:03 pm
I want one....it will keep me a "law abiding citizien" :)
cubez Apr 2, 2011 at 5:04 pm
Well I have been guilty of using my phone while driving. Luckily I haven't been caught yet.
txhutch Apr 2, 2011 at 5:05 pm
I'm on the road a lot - it's a 35 mile commute for me each way to work. Since my little Saturn doesn't have built in bluetooth (it's an '02 with 180,000 miles, don'cha know!), this device would be a great way to make my BB Bold more useful during the drive!
drjay868 Apr 2, 2011 at 5:11 pm
In!
bzmomx4 Apr 2, 2011 at 5:13 pm
Would love to win the Jabra Cruiser 2. With four kids, we are always running somewhere.
kvozel Apr 2, 2011 at 5:14 pm
This woul dbe great for carrying between cars.
cobracam Apr 2, 2011 at 5:14 pm
How nice it would be, so I send in my retirement than the Golf.
halpy Apr 2, 2011 at 5:16 pm
I was just about to go out and purchase this. Hopefully now I won't have to. My experience with Jabra products has been the same as the reviewer-excellent.
auditman Apr 2, 2011 at 5:17 pm
i will use this for while driving to and from work.
brimanp Apr 2, 2011 at 5:20 pm
would use it to keep my wife's eyes on the road
DOUBLE TROUBLE RACING Apr 2, 2011 at 5:21 pm
Awesome!
Work Safe. Drive Safe. Talk Safe.
I would LOVE to own this device, Please!
ostran40 Apr 2, 2011 at 5:21 pm
I need one!
platzak Apr 2, 2011 at 5:28 pm
Pick me amigos, I can't pay the bills anymore
lebking Apr 2, 2011 at 5:32 pm
I would really love the Jabra because I'm always on the road
cliflyn Apr 2, 2011 at 5:39 pm
Hi crackberry Friends
I am a farmer and this would be a great addition to the tractor!!!
bilmaga Apr 2, 2011 at 5:41 pm
I could sure use one of these! Would help me concentrate on the road
ittybitty14 Apr 2, 2011 at 5:52 pm
It would go with my Torch 9800 and help while I am on long road trips.
gregorylkelly Apr 2, 2011 at 6:00 pm
Seeing as how I have to spend at least half of my work day in the car, I am pretty sure I could use this as much as anyone else here! Please pick me!
ghenning Apr 2, 2011 at 6:03 pm
My wife has one of theses and its great. Troinle is, she gets upset with me when I Steel it from her. Save my marriage, pick me!
probass Apr 2, 2011 at 6:04 pm
I would use this everyday constantly to keep in contact with the managers in my units while on the road. Have never had much luck with the "other guys" products......
rubcal Apr 2, 2011 at 6:12 pm
i dont have nothing to drive and talk :(
Rickval Apr 2, 2011 at 6:12 pm
Talking on a phone on a federal base is against the law where I work...... would be great to be able to use this device....!
bpgui Apr 2, 2011 at 6:24 pm
I spend a lot of time in my car. This would work wonderfully for allowing me to make/receive calls much easier and safer.
charazy Apr 2, 2011 at 6:24 pm
Being in the health system and needing to take calls regularly. So this would help me greatly, especially since it will soon be illegal where i'm living to be holding cell phones to ear>
husband dad lover Apr 2, 2011 at 6:25 pm
I just got my Torch 9800 and I travel a long way to work and it will be very handly and I would be very excited to win.. Go Crackberry your the best
MisterMom Apr 2, 2011 at 6:27 pm
My Blackberry visor mount is dying and am looking for a new one, I just cant handle the earpiece type of sets. This sounds like a great set.
BBRYCnvnedMe Apr 2, 2011 at 6:36 pm
I do some rather long trips occasionally, and do not like to risk holding the Torch to my ear. I would love to have this one!! Please!!
wayoung Apr 2, 2011 at 6:42 pm
I would use this in my car so as to not violate my provinces cell phone laws....
ehard24 Apr 2, 2011 at 6:49 pm
Oh snap! I'm in a vehicle, on most days, a good 5 hours! This could really help pass the time! thx CB!
kiddoc Apr 2, 2011 at 6:51 pm
This would be SWEET for my car, my wife has built in Bluetooth in her car and loves it.
storm_fan2009 Apr 2, 2011 at 6:55 pm
Would love to own one of these because it would make my travel a real joy.
rednex269 Apr 2, 2011 at 6:56 pm
Ever had to drive a standard transmission truck, and try to talk on a phone. Hands free is the resolution, but on a buget.. just doesnt' happen well.... Being on-call for a hospital, really makes a hassle to call back in to assist a pain when you drive without a handsfree device..
painfulleap1 Apr 2, 2011 at 6:59 pm
Want to win a Jabra Cruiser 2 Car Kit Speakerphone from CrackBerry.com? I really would like to win :)
How would I use this? Exactly as it is intended. In my car while driving instead of illegally using my phone normally due to lack of bluetooth.
You mentioned it having a robot voice as being a con... In my mind a personal robot butler telling me I have a phone call is a pro ;)
I could really use this, not just because it's now illegal to drive and talk on a phone without hands free but also it's exactly what I'm looking for due to a recent fine it's not worth not having one anymore, and If winning this contest could save me a few dollars it would be awesome.
martain Apr 2, 2011 at 7:06 pm
We do a good bit of long distance traveling, to see relatives. Since I still need to be available for business related calls, which my wife can't answer, this would be nice to use, so I don't have to wear my earpiece for long periods, which can get uncomfortable after a while.
bforbaker Apr 2, 2011 at 7:11 pm
I work for pepsi and I drive around 100 miles a day. My supervisors are always calling me and it would be nice to be able to focus more in the roads. Expecially ik the rain.
Kingspat1 Apr 2, 2011 at 7:14 pm
As a new blackberry owner this would be perfect. I am always on the phone in the car and the wired headset is ok but this is better!. My cheap bluetooth is complete garbage nobody can hear me. I want one for my bold 9650!!
Canalla Apr 2, 2011 at 7:15 pm
Pick me
dadymon Apr 2, 2011 at 7:17 pm
I could use this device, so I can be in compliance with the new law that was just passed.
matkas Apr 2, 2011 at 7:18 pm
I spend a lot of time on the road and I some time use my phone illegaly. This would put me on the safe side. Thx CrackBerry.
sierrax3 Apr 2, 2011 at 7:18 pm
It would be nice to have this for my blackberry storm. but more importantly i would really appreciate handsfree driving! i dont have a car with that as an option !point period blank. :)
BLACK LAB Apr 2, 2011 at 7:28 pm
I am on the road very often and my phone never stops ringing. Miami has an ordinance that mandates a hands free device for your cell phone if you are going to use it while driving. Since I am in and out of Miami, this would help me comply with the law. More importantly, it is safer than reaching for your BlackBerry to receive or make a call.
jsscouter Apr 2, 2011 at 7:36 pm
This would be a great gift to my wife who is always traveling in her SUV.
avsb514 Apr 2, 2011 at 7:44 pm
It's illegal to talk on the phone without hands free in most of the cities i drive through, this makes it so difficult to work with all of my clients I would love this!!!
ChaSiuBao Apr 2, 2011 at 7:46 pm
Beats having something stuck in the ear while driving! very uncomfortable!
hopmike Apr 2, 2011 at 7:49 pm
I just received a $164.00 ticket for picking up my Bold 9780 and turning on the speakerphone. Headset hurt my ears and other speakers have been crap and never kept charged enough to be useful. Help, after paying this ticket I cannot afford a new speaker let alone a Jabra Cruiser 2
doxidad Apr 2, 2011 at 7:54 pm
I sure could use this on my hour commute to and from work on the local interstate. Be able to pay more attention to the lemmings..!
msugrad598 Apr 2, 2011 at 7:56 pm
I would use this so I would not have to purchase minutes through OnStar to talk hands free in my car. I am not a fan of Bluetooth earpieces.
Stompy Apr 2, 2011 at 7:57 pm
This would be perfect for me! My bluetooth headset gets uncomfortable sometimes, and it's especially useless when I forgot to bring it with me. If I had this car kit, I could just leave it in the car and never have to give it a second thought! One less thing to carry with me when I leave the house.
dm3ready Apr 2, 2011 at 8:08 pm
I'm a road warrior in sales management. i have messed with all kinds of bluetooths...none of them seem to do a GREAT job. While on the road it would be a relief to have a solid, dedicated bluetooth designed for in-the-car use. Thanks for the opportunity.
LuvNay Apr 2, 2011 at 8:13 pm
I have a new car and no longer have the bluetooth fuction built into the car. I'm a mom that's always on the go with my toddler so I need something that will allow me to multi-task hands free.
rscope Apr 2, 2011 at 8:15 pm
Looks like a good product.
mlbaker Apr 2, 2011 at 8:21 pm
My wife's Bluetooth just croaked and now will not take a charge. Would be nice to win this for her cause she travels quite a bit. Thanks for the offer!
ROSES5682 Apr 2, 2011 at 8:29 pm
OOOOOh I hope I win. This would really help make my long commute to and from work much more enjoyable. My ear piece recently broke so I havent been able to chit chat with my friends/family to and from work. :(
distroy3d Apr 2, 2011 at 8:29 pm
Just what I need to avoid more pesky tickets!
nogutsnoglory Apr 2, 2011 at 8:30 pm
This would be a great device to have with all the traveling I do. Put about 30,000 miles on the car a year, mostly work and late at night. This would help me be a much safer driver.
tbrenn Apr 2, 2011 at 8:33 pm
Have never won a thing in my life... I am starting a new job that requires me to drive from site to site quite a bit, while at the same time, beig able to take calls. Although my jowbone could do the job, I don't wear it around everywhere (espically when doing my groceries,lol)
I'd love this tool to stay in the car, so that while driving I could communicate safely and efficently, and when leaving my car, I could use my blackberry like a normal phone, and not have clients wonder if I am talking to them, or on my bluetooth...
Gamesdmc3 Apr 2, 2011 at 8:33 pm
i stay on a main road,right across the street from a airport,with a gas station right across from the airport,so its always busy with lots of traffic all through the day,so it would be nice to have this,and it has a mount!!! lol,because i have a gps system without a mount,that i hold in my hand while im driving to an unfamiliar area,so im constantly looking down at it while driving,so i wonder if this mount will work for my gps,because if i win this,i will get it built into my dash,depending on how much it will cost lol
Arsenic210 Apr 2, 2011 at 8:33 pm
I need on of these things because i dont like sticking those dumb make-you-look-like-you're-talking-to-yourself thingies
newbenin Apr 2, 2011 at 8:38 pm
this will help me alot. am always losing my headset.
oldtimeBBaddict Apr 2, 2011 at 8:39 pm
It would make my life so much simpler if you could see fit to award it to me.
zegra Apr 2, 2011 at 8:41 pm
Just another road warrior, 300+ miles per week in need of a great tool. That and I want to win.
jojo212 Apr 2, 2011 at 8:44 pm
I need this as it's now illegal in Ontario to talk on the phone.
petrpuck Apr 2, 2011 at 8:50 pm
Would love to win this product. Safe driving for sure
callmeforge Apr 2, 2011 at 8:54 pm
Would really like this please.
Laureanne Apr 2, 2011 at 8:55 pm
I'm a clinical social worker and frequently must take calls while driving. I work right across from a police station and they lie in wait for us.
This would make my life much easier. I would love to have one.
macallik Apr 2, 2011 at 8:57 pm
I can use this so that I do not get pulled over when answering a 30 second call
Mona10153 Apr 2, 2011 at 8:58 pm
I would love to win. =)
wegodzilla99 Apr 2, 2011 at 8:59 pm
I am unfortunately in a situation where I commute everyday 188 miles round trip. I always have to take business calls and traffic is intense the entire way (milwaukee to chicago). I've been looking into a bluetooth headset of some kind, but it seems this is the ultimate hands free solution! I have a huge address book, so the address book integration sounds awesome and would be great for keeping my eyes on the road.
jwsnj3rd Apr 2, 2011 at 9:00 pm
i have a jabra bluetooth head set but its out dated it works, but it has a rubber O ring that seems to always pop out and if you dont have it ,it will cut up your ear. but i think this would be awesome to have. i always wanted to buy a car kit but too expensive to buy, winning one would be a bonus. Plus we could use it when we go away on vacation without fiddiling with a phone. looks like a product that would keep a driver safe not fiddiling with a phone when there eyes should be on the road. i think everybody who has a cell phone should have something like this. plus i think jabra so far has made some good products
RPNOSU Apr 2, 2011 at 9:02 pm
to and from in the car while during winter with 4 ft of snow that just fell the night before and I have to be on a conference call.... I win....
JWWDUKE Apr 2, 2011 at 9:03 pm
I'm going to be buying 2 of them so getting one for free would be da shiz.....

This would make driving to school and talking on the phone so much easier
ssjtiamat Apr 2, 2011 at 9:11 pm
Using one of these to talk on the phone while driving is the most obvious use for it. But I would use it to avoid a ticket and most of all, stay safe while driving! We all know that texting/using your device and driving can get you in trouble with the law-dawgs. But it is also not safe.. so I would use this to keep myself from hurting someone else while driving and talking on the phone!
yet2do Apr 2, 2011 at 9:13 pm
I have read great reviews on this device...would love to win one!! Thx CB!
moleek95 Apr 2, 2011 at 9:18 pm
Well I go on plenty of road trips to and from a surf city near me. I'm also a very "phone oriented man", this means I usually receive around 10 calls while driving, when this happens I have to hand the phone over as talking on the phone while driving is illegal in my country.
AFriske Apr 2, 2011 at 9:18 pm
It would go in my wife's car
The_Adventist Apr 2, 2011 at 9:18 pm
I could definitely use this as Ontario has the Distracted Driver's Law.
I am on the road quite a bit driving to work and for work and I would use this to stay legal.
dakid72 Apr 2, 2011 at 9:19 pm
This would be perfect for my wife who can't do two things at once, drive and whatever......it goes in her car and whenever i drive i can use it as well. a safe way for her to drive and do the things she likes, talking on the phone, messing with the radio, waving at friends, not paying attention, j/k it would be beneficial for her when the calls from the children come in (frequent and often)
kimierin Apr 2, 2011 at 9:21 pm
I would love one of these. I have been looking for a speakerphone.
Drawde Apr 2, 2011 at 9:21 pm
This would be great for my drive into work!
sungjin1989 Apr 2, 2011 at 9:24 pm
Using a mobile device while driving is illegal in New Zealand (where I live) unless you're using some sort of handsfree accessory like this one! This would be the perfect solution for me as I don't have any handsfree accessory and I'm often forced to miss calls.
BB Musketeers Apr 2, 2011 at 9:24 pm
I could use another hands free device for my wife's car. That way, she can talk on the phone and still drive reliably.
stevedee Apr 2, 2011 at 9:30 pm
Dilemma: 2 cars; 2 bb owners; 1 bluetooth enabled speakerphone and hands-free driving law. Solution: Win this puppy! Go Crackberry!
konaman01 Apr 2, 2011 at 9:30 pm
What a great giveaway. With so many states going hands free this is really a very appropriate contest. I would definitely benefit and possibly avoid hefty fines with this little baby.
intprd04 Apr 2, 2011 at 9:34 pm
Use something new in my very old dying car. Yes, illegal hear without it too in igloo land!
Razor213 Apr 2, 2011 at 9:36 pm
I recently purchased the IGrip and really love it. I didnt know how much until i began to stream music through my stereo speakers. I stream Pandora and also my personal music selection on my memory card. i get alot of business calls while driving and would love to have the actual device that will do this for me. I have tried out a few of them just to end up throwing them away. I hope this one does all its says it does.
TurboTiger Apr 2, 2011 at 9:38 pm
I travel a lot and this device would be a great compliment to my Storm2.
Safe driving and efficient use of time.
Please throw my hat into the ring.
TIA
MousePad Apr 2, 2011 at 9:38 pm
This product would be right for me in soooooooo many ways! :)
Seriously... I have to take a lot of calls on the road sometimes, and don't always like the headset type device... I use a BlueAnt T1 currently...
It would be a lot more comfortable to have *nothing* around the ear sometimes... :)
SuperGenius Apr 2, 2011 at 9:44 pm
It would be nice to replace the crappy headset I have now with one that's a bit more up-to-date.
Berknip Apr 2, 2011 at 9:45 pm
Interesting product. My wife's old VW Beetle could certainly use handsfree, so that's probably where we'd use this. Beats an in-the-earpiece Bluetooth unit.
susu222 Apr 2, 2011 at 9:50 pm
Wow Good sound quality . This would be much better than my current dorky headset!
Red Rooster Apr 2, 2011 at 9:55 pm
I would give it to my son for his vehicle and his 9650. He is the only one in the family without hands-free.
dphillippi Apr 2, 2011 at 9:59 pm
I am in!
Mr.Hutz Apr 2, 2011 at 9:59 pm
My wife and I would love this for our car!
pozi240 Apr 2, 2011 at 10:00 pm
I commute over an hour each way to work every day, and lord knows that I could use something like this, since using the cell phone without a hands free device is illegal now. Thanks CB!
xpdamus Apr 2, 2011 at 10:01 pm
I've just bought an old banger of a car because i'm skint, and if i had this the hands free would mean its the safest feature on my car!
Cheers.
zephyros Apr 2, 2011 at 10:03 pm
would be nice to have something installed on my desk instead of me digging around for my phone and holding it to my head when i'm meeting deadlines and need both my hands to type!
MrLynd54 Apr 2, 2011 at 10:08 pm
I drive back and forth to work, bring the family here and there, take trips out on the highways. This will no dbout allow me to drive safely in any situation I may find myself when having to communicate while out on the road. I would love to win this. Thanks for offering it.
gonzotwins Apr 2, 2011 at 10:08 pm
I have nothing like it and for safety, particularly with two small kids, I could really use this! Thanks for the chance.
dewey32399 Apr 2, 2011 at 10:08 pm
Sick of my Moto H12 and Garmin Nuvi bluetooth systems. After trying to put up with the pain of numerous ill fitting in ear pieces and the poor audio quality and integration issues of the so called garmin handsfree system.
I would love to have a quality system like the Jabra.
Pick me!!!!!
AnneO Apr 2, 2011 at 10:27 pm
This would look nice on my visor.
tterpy Apr 2, 2011 at 10:30 pm
I do a lot of driving for my job, and I always prefer safety when driving. This would be excellent tool in being able to talk to many who call from work while I am driving.
f4ipilot Apr 2, 2011 at 10:35 pm
I drive a 1976 truck. I need one of these to put in it.
Sirkus Apr 2, 2011 at 10:36 pm
My wife is hopefully getting her license at the end of this month so this would be a great gift for her car.
04blackout Apr 2, 2011 at 10:43 pm
This would allow me to keep my engine out of the preceding car's trunk
shrek1. Apr 2, 2011 at 10:43 pm
Attention deficit and 3 kids 2 of them twins. I could really use the help!!!
CigarDad Apr 2, 2011 at 10:47 pm
A could actually make a call from my vehicle legally with this baby.
mikerc3 Apr 2, 2011 at 10:51 pm
This would be awesome for me. I spend most of my working day behind the wheel and currently the hands free device that I own has terrible background noise. Hope I win and if not Congrats to the winner in advance.
rcm1301 Apr 2, 2011 at 10:52 pm
The coolest Bluetooth car kit I've ever seen!
The_New_Dude Apr 2, 2011 at 10:53 pm
The new Ontario law doesn't allow use of handsets. So this would be very useful!!
fire_storm1029 Apr 2, 2011 at 10:56 pm
This would be great for talking hands free and finally have noise free music listening! Crackberry heres to winning!!!!!
ajk791 Apr 2, 2011 at 10:56 pm
It'd be great for my regular hour and a half long commutes for work! It gets pretty annoying using a headset for too long or holding the phone up to my head while driving.
pstarrobbie Apr 2, 2011 at 11:00 pm
this would be perfect i broke my other blue tooth car kit
midget58 Apr 2, 2011 at 11:05 pm
Been thinking of getting one of these rather that breaking the law everyday....this would be great!!!
boehm626 Apr 2, 2011 at 11:10 pm
I have to travel into Washington DC alot where you are required to use a hands free device when using a cell phone. Tickets are $100 and 2 points on your license. I can't afford that type of hit.
squire52 Apr 2, 2011 at 11:15 pm
I have no way of playing music from my blackberry while driving to work. This would come in handy.
heaven1794 Apr 2, 2011 at 11:19 pm
I would use this everyday when I drive cuz most of my life is spent in the car, and I have to avoid a lot of important phone calls so that I cud avoid a lot of tickets ! LOL this wud be amazing to win ! Gud luck to all nd me :D
fyreball Apr 2, 2011 at 11:21 pm
I'm on the road a lot and often need to talk enroute to my destinations.
Anyways, good luck everyone! :)
dblkcat Apr 2, 2011 at 11:23 pm
Great feature for DBlkcat. I call my Mom either going to work or coming home. Wouldn't have to worry about the bluetooth fading.
cajunchei#cb Apr 2, 2011 at 11:25 pm
after a wreck and two tickets I need this please
parked Apr 2, 2011 at 11:34 pm
For my long commute so that cops won't pull me over.
dwain77 Apr 2, 2011 at 11:34 pm
This would be perfect on my long drive to and from work with stop and go traffic. Much safer than messing around with my Torch and far better than this ancient bluetooth headset that hurts my ear after a few minutes.
dhhoffm Apr 2, 2011 at 11:39 pm
I'm currently in law school in another state from my girlfriend, and the only time we get to talk it seems is when we're both driving. Being able to finally hear her, plus abide by my state's hands free laws (being in law school, and all) would be so great! Thanks for the consideration.
1102SunDevil Apr 2, 2011 at 11:51 pm
This would be a superb tool that would help prevent my accident count from reaching 11.
ICEMAN9 Apr 2, 2011 at 11:52 pm
As my job requires me to be on the road a lot, business never stops, so this will allow me to continue that in the safest way possible and not brake any laws in the process.
Tony_11 Apr 2, 2011 at 11:53 pm
What more could you ask for when business is on the go? This is probably the best product I've seen here and give props to those who made it. I haven't used it myself, would love to win one, but is perfect for what is needed around here.
mqchards Apr 2, 2011 at 11:54 pm
Would be very nice.
mdavis0396 Apr 2, 2011 at 11:55 pm
Was the best device I have ever used and the new one excited me soo much. I love that it talks the names. I would use this all the time for work!
linuxdaemon Apr 2, 2011 at 11:56 pm
I accidentally washed my Jabra headset in my shirt pocket and couldn't save it with rice. I have been looking for a replacement and have determined that the speakerphone is probably the best solution for my use. My car is a manual transmission, so I need all the "hands free" help I can get when I get a call to help someone with a server issue, or (more often) when my wife calls me to have me pick something up at that store on my way home :)
jaBBu Apr 3, 2011 at 12:00 am
I only use the Bluetooth when driving for work. If the family is in the car, then I hand someone the BB before I drive. But my old headset is starting to fail (battery I think). Anyway, this would be a better option then that thing sticking out of my ear.
jayjax Apr 3, 2011 at 12:01 am
My commuting time is getting crazy. The Jabra Cruiser 2 sounds like it would really help me out. Thanks!
kaylasdad Apr 3, 2011 at 12:06 am
I don't know how many times I have said to someone "hold on cop" and quickly drop my BlackBerry down from my ear while driving. Never fails a police officer drives by everytime I get a call while driving. Winning this would prevent this from ever happening again! Fingers crossed!
Blackfeet Apr 3, 2011 at 12:19 am
Using one of these will keep me from getting a ticket! Please...
trdtopdog Apr 3, 2011 at 12:23 am
This would be great to win. I’d use it for work and personal use. thx
beebo86 Apr 3, 2011 at 12:23 am
Since i'm on the phone a lot all day, it would make it that much more safer to be able to drive and talk without risking my life or dealing with the irritating ear pieces that hurt after a while.
flnetman62 Apr 3, 2011 at 12:26 am
So many callls, so few hands - my exwife is bitching because i talk on phone and set bad example for teh kids - twins - who are about to get their learners permit. Please make my exwife happy.
b.bates Apr 3, 2011 at 12:35 am
Gift for a 16yr old new driver! Please!
con4n007 Apr 3, 2011 at 12:37 am
Its gonna stick with me 24/7!!!
Toxic Apr 3, 2011 at 12:52 am
I hate the bluetooth i have now. Would love to try this one.
cwmont13 Apr 3, 2011 at 12:56 am
This would be just the thing for my daily commute. I'd love to win one of these. Sure would make things easier since I usually have my feisty 5 year old daughter with me in the car and she chatters nonstop. Speakerphone would give me one less thing to worry about.
Usually never win anything but keeping my fingers crossed for this one.
new.bee Apr 3, 2011 at 1:04 am
This would be convenient to have on the go. Thanks.
TEHJAMUS Apr 3, 2011 at 1:08 am
This would be an incentive for me to switch to handsfree.
espresso1967 Apr 3, 2011 at 1:11 am
Here is my entry.
Thanks
snakeoil Apr 3, 2011 at 1:18 am
I have a terribly old rear-view mirror based bluetooth setup that has a charger that just broke. So its now just a regular mirror, and I would love to chunk it out the window and replace it with the Jabra.
KiraSaint Apr 3, 2011 at 1:20 am
Don't own a bluetooth, can definitely use this!
f1mx Apr 3, 2011 at 1:22 am
I'm contantly on the road. To work, to school, to home, to friends' houses, etc. So I'm always in a constant need for a device that allows me to talk whenever I'm driving. Specially when there are important calls. I hate it when I need to stop to answer my phone in order to avoid any trouble with police men, so one of these bluetooth sets would be very appreciated.
First 8320 Apr 3, 2011 at 1:23 am
This would be great to reply my Bue Ant speaker that has a bad echo problem. :(
owoseni1 Apr 3, 2011 at 1:37 am
my current Bluetooth headset is just simply ridiculous.
GaryPumbaDX Apr 3, 2011 at 1:44 am
Honestly I've been doing the hide and go-drop-my-phone-in-my-lap-and-yell-HOLD-ON! as I avoid the police that I see tactic....which gets extremely annoying. And honestly I've missed some pretty important phone calls (prospective employer for a job I REALLY wanted) because I couldn't answer my phone due to me driving. If I won this (I'm thinking a really big IF lol) I would definitely compliment it with the iGrip (I feel like they are just two peas in a pod) and with those two my driving would be tons safer and I'd probably not miss phone calls that I really should've answered.
So here is me keeping my fingers crossed until they stay that way (not really though lol)
etaynir1 Apr 3, 2011 at 1:54 am
will be great to talk to peoples on my long 4 hours drive to my research site. i am on my study for doctor in marine biology.
edthebudman Apr 3, 2011 at 1:56 am
I would be able to talk hands free while driving
treybon Apr 3, 2011 at 1:58 am
This is just what I need. I'm a health coach (www.halfthecouple.com) and I spend a lot of time in the car and on the phone supporting my clients. This will allow me to dump my existing headset and be able to listen to my calls over the stereo. What an upgrade!
Thanks for choosing me.
JamesCorbeil Apr 3, 2011 at 2:06 am
Here's a great reason why I could really use this device: We just moved into a new house and changed cars. Before bringing my old car back to the dealer, I put my jabra along with all my cd's, an older gps and some other stuff I wanted to keep all into, yes, a garbage bag. Brought my new car home, showed my wife the new car, and put the garbage bag next to the car, in the garage.
Dude, the next day I had to rush in the morning to catch the garbage truck and like an idiot!, threw out the garbage bag with all my stuff!!! I was so pissed, my wife was even more pissed cause when I got my gps, it was like $600 and didn't even have bluetooth (hence the purchase of my jabra).
Anyways, please consider me for this giveaway, I've been using an ear piece and hate it. Plus, I have to keep my funds for a playbook in a couple weeks, wife would kill me if I bought another gadget this month! True story, happened last week!
nox818 Apr 3, 2011 at 2:17 am
Never had a bluetooth car kit before. Always had the wired headphones and to go without wires would be AWESOME!
techboy1980 Apr 3, 2011 at 2:20 am
I would use it to talk hands free...... for real
CapsLK Apr 3, 2011 at 2:26 am
My girlfriend has to commute over 100km per day. This would be awesome for her...
pccuser Apr 3, 2011 at 2:31 am
i need this!
i need this!
i nees this!
pick me up!!!!
doughboyy Apr 3, 2011 at 2:42 am
i'd use it in my car :P
time.lord Apr 3, 2011 at 3:03 am
I could use it because i'm awesome
xshawx Apr 3, 2011 at 3:20 am
This would allow me to ditch the bluetooth earpiece when I'm in my car
iPhoneTHS Apr 3, 2011 at 3:30 am
Just gimme the music, do the humpty dance!
chachoi Apr 3, 2011 at 3:36 am
Would love to win this one
chachoi Apr 3, 2011 at 3:36 am
Would love to win this one
chachoi Apr 3, 2011 at 3:47 am
Would love to win one
feldmen01 Apr 3, 2011 at 3:50 am
my job requires that I do not use a hand held device while driving, this would be a welcomed addition.
malita Apr 3, 2011 at 3:54 am
Would like to win this!
I would definitely use this to make my every day life much easier and safer - most of the time I am using my BB while driving, because of the job specifications..
tharsekan Apr 3, 2011 at 3:56 am
Hey I would make sure I wouldn't talk with my phone in my ear because it could cause accidents
redman12 Apr 3, 2011 at 4:04 am
Sweet, would work for my Bold 9700!
urShadow Apr 3, 2011 at 4:15 am
i would use it in my trips to Makkah/Madina, one trip is of around 2000 kms so this device would be very helpful
Esoteric1 Apr 3, 2011 at 4:16 am
How would I NOT use this thing?!! :) This little gadget = FREEDOM!!!
LuV2bHaTeD Apr 3, 2011 at 4:16 am
my job is emt so i pretty much would be using this all day everyday
Drew Oswalt Apr 3, 2011 at 4:50 am
no more annoying BT headset and keeps me from getting a ticket. ;)
EchuOkan1 Apr 3, 2011 at 4:55 am
I would use it for streaming music besides telephone communication.
cookie1069 Apr 3, 2011 at 5:01 am
I would use this to be completely hands free while driving. As a mother of 3(5,8, & 10), it would be very useful to have.
dee.one Apr 3, 2011 at 5:17 am
This one would perfectly fit in my ride, count me in!
MgnfcntMohok Apr 3, 2011 at 5:47 am
It's not so much that I could use this thing, although I would definitely benefit from it. It's more my girlfriend that could REALLY use this thing. I'm constantly telling her to put her phone down when she's driving (bold 9700 by the way). She herself says she can't do too many things at the same time. Eventually she's gonna get slapped with a fine and she'll be really upset. So help her out... And help me out cause i'm gonna have to deal with her when she does get fined. Thanks in advance.
digimaz Apr 3, 2011 at 5:48 am
Would love to win this item. Not for myself but for my dad. Wired headsets seem to cumbersome and his bluetooth headsets always seem to get misplaced. His birthday is coming and i think this would be a great addition to the new phone that he's about to get.
LexP Apr 3, 2011 at 6:23 am
nice review, nice speakers, it would be nice if i win it,
Helliboy Apr 3, 2011 at 6:43 am
I would love this :)
jussy35 Apr 3, 2011 at 6:50 am
You know it is funny how my phone won't ring until I get in my car. Murphys law I guess. This is a much needed accessory!
greenfan Apr 3, 2011 at 7:04 am
I could use it for being in contact with my job while in the car. And I've got a long road to drive to my work......
Traffic in Athens, Greece is awful most of the time!
Flow-Jow Apr 3, 2011 at 7:12 am
Would like to try this on my bicycle. Lol.
Artwerks Apr 3, 2011 at 7:16 am
I have a headset at work all day, and another one in my car. It would be great to be "ear free" in the car as it is annoying to wear those headsets so many hours!
dalspartan Apr 3, 2011 at 7:21 am
Hands-free driving!
scottwatton Apr 3, 2011 at 7:23 am
Chicago is almost all hands free and it "safety first" Would love to have this one.
myjdjames Apr 3, 2011 at 7:26 am
i would really find a device this handy for me to save me fines from policemen as I sit in traffic daily.
ZeUgly Apr 3, 2011 at 7:32 am
I would give it to my wife, since she can't use earphones. That will be one hell of a cool gift.
JBoz Apr 3, 2011 at 7:33 am
Is never a convenient place to pull over when the phone rings so, would keep me from having to find a place to pull over to get a new job assignment,,
porsche944 Apr 3, 2011 at 7:39 am
last two headsets didnt sound good for people on the other end.....could use something that actually works!
kdmea Apr 3, 2011 at 8:05 am
This would stop all those dumb tickets I have gotten
mr.bos3od Apr 3, 2011 at 8:35 am
HI
this device can be used in answering important calls wile driving for the driver's safety instead of taking the phone from the pocket which will take time to answer it ...
this is how i will use it
- the winner of this device will be very lucky to have such device
thank you .
ross778 Apr 3, 2011 at 8:19 am
Traveling down the road with the family would make this really nice when Nana called wanting to know where we are.
THeDEALER2 Apr 3, 2011 at 8:21 am
This would help me during my daily commute to and from work!! Also During my numerous travels. A great plus for any automobile and cellphone. I really don't like using an ear piece.
