Bluetooth intercoms - any experience?

Iv found loads of different headsets to talk rider to passenger and rider to rider...
they all say they are amazing (like advertisment would do)
anyone have any that they use and think is actually amazing?!
I would be using it mainly to talk to passengers... but occasionally (when a friend gets round to getting his bike legal) be wanting rider to riider chats..

Only one way to do it properly, ie reliable

Forget bluetooth and go autocom with a lead to your lids. and then invest in a decent radio for the bike to bike

+1 sods lawa says when you really need it, the bluetooth headset will have a flat bettery. it takes me all of 5 seconds to plug my autocom headset in to the bike, and so long as the bike has power so do my comms.

Being a bit of a nerd I made my own autocom PMR set up using one of the cheap bike to biike radios from lidl and a 5 pin DIN socket from Maplin. Just need some mates to talk to now :rolleyes:

EDIT - my Mrs will not come on the bike without the autocom. We can do well over a ton and she can still nag...er talk to me ;-) autocom is hardwored to my zumo for music and calls, or when I'm not using the Zumo, it connects direct to my phone via a bluetooth connection and will autoanswer calls for me.
