I Like IT [Posted on 2008-10-05]
I myself have had 2 of the Cardo Scala earbuds (a 500 & a 600). The small size makes both of the earbuds easy to use & I have enjoyed both of them. When my husband needed an earbud, he asked me to get him the 600. Since then, we have purchased more 600's for some of our friends who have been very satisfied with them. I would recommend them to anyone who needs an earbud to comply with the new laws.

Good bluetooth for the price. [Posted on 2008-10-21]
I purchased this for my wife's birthday. Before I gave it to her I tested it out for a few days to make sure she would like it and it was compatible with our Samsung phones. While I used it nobody even knew I was using a bluetooth, even while driving. Everybody just assumed I had the phone to my ear. So as im saying this provided good sound quality. And was comfortable on my ear.

Not Worth the Trouble [Posted on 2008-12-01]
The Bluetooth headset would not charge and I never got it working. The manual says that it might take up to a minute to start charging. A note included in the package said it might take up to 2 hours. That's just ridiculous. After repeated attempts to charge the headset, I gave up and returned it without a problem. Not worth the trouble.

Unimpressive follow-up [Posted on 2008-12-17]
I bought one of these because my trusty Scala 500 had finally given up the ghost after serving me well and faithfully for a couple of years. Unfortunately, my experience with the 600 wasn't nearly as good. First thing I noticed when I took it out of its box was just how thin and fragile that ear loop is. And, sure enough, it broke 2 weeks in. The second included ear loop broke not long after that. And my attempts to communicate with Cardo about the problem and to get replacement ear loops were met with nothing but silence. Let's face it - that's just about the textbook definition of bad customer service. I'd stay away from the 600 but if you can find a 500 for a reasonable price...I might still go for another one of those.

Headset will not charge...and unresponsive customer service from Cardo [Posted on 2009-01-07]
Similar to other people's experience, I got a defective headset that would not charge. I emailed the manufacturer's (Cardo Systems) customer service which did not bother to respond. It's not worth the time to try to use this headset; much better to spend $5 more and get something that actually works.
