Summary: Love it
Review: Actually, I have the one without the winder but I'm gonna get the winder. This is my 3rd attempt to find something convenient. It took some diddling to find out I needed the large earpiece (never knew my ears were that large) but once I did, it's maintenance free. Sound quality on both ends is excellent (callers don't know I'm on a headset). And the thing just stays right there in my ear. I can jump around, shake my head, whatever, there it is. And not uncomfortable. The only drawback is the dangling cord but apparently the winder may be cumbersome as noted above.
This is the first thing I've reviewed on Amazon but I'm a gadget freak and I checked these things out here before I bought it so maybe this will be helpful to someone else. If you have the right size ears.

Summary: Cool and Comfortable
Review: Excellent product. I was looking for a handsfree cell phone accessory that didn't have wires to get tangled. I used to use a faboulus Plantronics ear boom product, but I was always getting the wire tangled.

Jabra's retractable boom mic works perfectly and the sound quality is as good if not better than the high standard of Plantronics. Another plus is that unlike most ear bud handsfree accessories, you can hear through the earbud. It doesn't actually plug your ear canal so you can't hear anything else.

I only have one gripe, that is a trade of in the ability to customize the jabra. The earbuds can be changed in sizes but I knocked off and lost 2 of the 3 left earbuds and the windscreen. I was able to superglue replacements and it has been all good since then.

Highly recommended.

Summary: Bad, bad, bad!
Review: My first 3 days with the EarBoom Winder have been very disappointing. When I make a call when driving, the "reel" part of the EarBoom dangles down awkwardly and sometimes gets wrapped around the gear shift. Obviously, this is not good. It takes away much (all?) of the safety of a hands-free kit. I encountered a buzzing noise when making calls. I never get this with the stock hands-free kit that ships with my Motorola V60i. Yesterday, the EarBoom stopped working. I couldn't hear anything through it. This is probably because the reel hangs down, and the wire is getting loose in its connection. I give this product a 2, and not a 1, because I did some tests and found that voice transmission was clearer with the Jabra than with my stock hands-free kit. I'm going to return this product and get a Jabra EarBroom -- without that darn winder!
