Giro Tuneups w/BT Link - 2009 BCS

Chatted with the online rep and the rep said a bluetooth enabled mp3 player could play music wirelessly to the Giro Tuneups w/BT link. The P3 could not connect the tuneups via bluetooth. Called Giro, they said only phones can connect to these. Why make a bluetooth product unless you can connect to phones and mp3 players. The upgrade to the Giro "Mickey Mouse" earpads do just that, but seriously, why not make some stealth drop ins that do the same thing? Giro and Skullcandy fail.

Picked these up for my G10, and after a little initial problem (defective produce, which Backcountry corrected in under 72 hrs) I was jammin on my next trip to the hill. Designed for external use, I think it is a bit more convient to wear the controller inside my jacket. The only problem I can see is that the button is a little too sensitive and maybe hard to hang up if I accidentally hit it and make a call. Other than that I am psyched to pay in the snow with some tuned in my ear.

I was told these would work for the Blackberry phones and also thought the item would be entirely wireless. In order to work, the wires still need to be plugged into the phone for music (acts as MP3 player also), and the phone will not ring into the headphone speakers, so it is hard to know when it is actually recieving a call!
Blackberry cannot be programmed to answer automatically or run on speakerphone which is the only way the bluetooth will send rings to headphones. also, need to send back because plugs were too big in diameter for phone jack even though they are the right size supposedly...
NEEDS IMPROVEMENT!!!

These headphones are realy good, when they work. They are awesome you can talk on the phone and hit jumps all at the same time! The only downside is they are fragile and not water proof. The first pair I bought broke in shipping and there was no sound from the head phones when I received a call even though my phone said they were synced. I then ordered another pair from this sites amazing customer service. After skiing for several hours in near sub-zero weather the blue tooth thing shifted out of position and when I tried to unclip it the clip broke so I took it off because I didn't want it to get wet if I fell. Besides being fragile and not water proof it's a good buy.

I have an Ipod and an Iphone G3 and want to use both. After getting this item I could hook up both Ipod and Iphone but I could not heard any voices over the phone connection. I could answer, hang up and redial so I know the phone connected but no voices came through the speakers. Music played fine, just as it is supposed to but no phone. Backcountry said I needed an adpator... Giro said...no adaptor needed. Giro sent two new sets and still the same problem. This unit is not compatible with the Iphone 3g and 3gs series. Too Bad!
