headset question

I bought a router but it wouldn't work with my computer so I can only be online with either the PS3 or computer, not both. Since I can't IM chat with friends while we play, I was going to get a headset.


I noticed one that specifically mentions bluetooth, and compatible with ps3. It's about 60-65 dollars.


There's another one, some Planetronics brand, it's bluetooth, and 30 dollars.


Any brand should be able to be sync'd with the PS3 as long as it's bluetooth, yes?


Might spring for the $40 motorola one, though.




Just looking for some insight from people more knowledgable about this aspect of online before I make a purchase.


Thanks.

I've got the Motorola 40.00 one and it works fine. Not sure what the model number is.

Re: headset question

Do many people play headset games online? I've never used a headset online in any game. Do you like that game play experience?

The Plantronics works fine...I have it and have had no problems..All Bluetooth headsets do not work...They should but some have problems..I had a Motorola BT before the Plantronics and I had to take the Motorola back because it would never sync up right.

I only use it to chat with people/friends I know...Otherwise I never would use it...I don't get into chatting with strangers or people just to be chatting.
