    You will get one in plenty of the operators shops. If you can wait, get it online for half the price

    Well ebay would probably be the cheapest, and most of them wouldn't even be touched as a lot of people lever use them. If you dont want to go the ebay route, you will get decent prices on amazon.co.uk and big selection.

    The one that comes with the N97 is the black shiny one iirc :link

    Im not sure tbh about the quality if they are that much different, but the buds are better imo. Their is a second set of the N8 also, for dab radio, but they are about 50 quid but wouldn't be of use for the n97

    I like the ones on the N97 or similar great for when I'm driving as I just press the button and call out the name of the person I want to talk to I then just let the earphones rest over my shoulders.
    I,ve often seeing lads going around with a blue tooth ear peice in their ear for a whole day that must be soar.:eek:

    It depends a lot on the bluetooth you use really. The nokia ear pieces are very poor. The way they hang just isnt comfortable imo, and most of the other brands are similar.

    The best design ones are similar to this one. They look a bit strange, but are really light, and wont fall off your ear. You would nearly forget your wearing it. Used to be a jabra bt200, then bt250 but would be a few years old now.
