    Bluetooth headset capiable of caller ID/caller announce

    I hope some of you Incredible users can help. I have an Incredible and have paired it with my Plantronics 510 BT headset. It works ok, but the feature I am really missing is the ability to hear who is calling via the headset. Has anyone been using a BT headset with the Incredible that announces the caller? I am fairly sure I will have to get a new BT, however I want to be sure the new headset with allow me this feature. I believe some of the Blueant products can do this. But, I really like an "over the hear" model. Any help or feedback will be appreciated. Thanks.

    BT headset

    Thank you! Will it announce the caller without subscribing to Vocalyst? I know its free for a year, but I would rather not have to mess with that. Mark-have you had personal success with that headset?

    No I have not used the + version but I have the original Pro and had a 510 and was reading on another forum where you can't change the profiles on iPhone Bluetooth so you can NOT make it ring thru the speaker. I use a Jawbone Icon and when I get a call the sounds come thru the earpiece and speaker on my Inc.
    If you want to double check before purchase go to Howardforums, bluetooth forum, there is a thread specifically for the Pro +. Its called Voyager Pro Plus and iPhone 4 text message sounds.
    If the 510 had a2dp you could use it and Whoisit or Ringo apps but I don't know if they will work without it. Neither are free so I don't want to suggest them without knowing. You might try Vlingo before putting any money down on anything. It might work but I haven't used it in months. It didn't play nice with my keyboards

    Thank you so much for all the information. I like to do my homework, but it starting to feel like I was searching for a needle in a hay stack, lol.

    You kinda are prefering an over the ear. I've got over the ear ones, in ear ones, on the ear ones.
    The Pro and from what I read the Pro+, are both as loud as the 510 and I found I actually like the sound of my Pro over the 510 I had. It's also more comfortable and has much better battery life.
    Best Buy has an excellent return policy if you want to try one and decide it's not for you.
